Files

Purpose

This section documents the Files endpoints and common usage patterns.

Key concepts

• Inputs and outputs
• Model and parameter compatibility
• Streaming (when supported)

Minimal example

# POST /v1/files
curl https://api.fastapi.ai/v1/files \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $FAST_API_KEY" \
  -F purpose="fine-tune" \
  -F file="@mydata.jsonl"

Common pitfalls

• Ensure your Authorization header is set for every request.
• Use the correct Content-Type for the endpoint.
• For streaming, handle SSE events and error events.
