Uploads
Creates an intermediate [Upload](https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/uploads/object) object that you can add [Parts](https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/uploads/part-object) to. Currently, an Upload can accept at most 8 GB in total and expires after an hour after you create it. Once you complete the Upload, we will create a [File](https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/files/object) object that contains all the parts you uploaded. This File is usable in the rest of our platform as a regular File object. For certain `purpose`s, the correct `mime_type` must be specified. Please refer to documentation for the supported MIME types for your use case: - [Assistants](https://platform.openai.com/docs/assistants/tools/file-search#supported-files) For guidance on the proper filename extensions for each purpose, please follow the documentation on [creating a File](https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/files/create).
