Question

I'm uploading documents to a QueryEngineTool object and passing that as a tool parameter to OpenAIAssistantAgent. As a result, I'm getting the TypeError: Assistant.create() got an unexpected keyword argument 'file_ids' error. When I looked at the reference of the API, I found out that there was no file_ids argument being passed. Yet, the same implementation was working correctly on Jupyter Notebook (this one's a part of Telegram bot, by the way). I checked the versions for LlamaIndex of both ways and they were the same: 0.10.30. Is that internal thing or something's wrong with my code?

Thank you for your response.

It looks like the TypeError you're encountering with the file_ids parameter in the OpenAIAssistantAgent class might be due to how the parameter is being passed or a mismatch in the expected data type. The file_ids parameter is indeed part of the API, specifically in the from_new class method of the OpenAIAssistantAgent, where it's optional and expected to be a list of strings. Here's a brief overview of how it's used:

@classmethod
def from_new(
    ...
    file_ids: Optional[List[str]] = None,
    ...
) -> "OpenAIAssistantAgent":

And within the method:

file_dict = _process_files(client, files)
all_file_ids = list(file_dict.keys()) + file_ids

This shows that file_ids is combined with other file IDs, indicating its proper use and recognition within the API. Ensure you're passing file_ids as a list of strings to match the expected format.

The discrepancy you're experiencing between the Jupyter Notebook and the Telegram bot could be due to environmental differences or dependency versions, though without more specific details, pinpointing the exact cause is challenging.

For further assistance, providing more information about your code, the full error message, and details about your setup could be very helpful. This would allow for a more accurate diagnosis and solution.

Hi @dxtym, what's the version of your openapi-python library. AFAIK, this library has changed the parameter file_ids to other names recently, see openai/openai-python#1325.

The official document also renames file_ids to tool_resources, see docs.

@RussellLuo is correct, the API has changed. Still need to update this class (its somewhere on the TODO list 😓 )

[dxtym]

Thank you @RussellLuo @logan-markewich !
Apparently, I was using the older version of the API in my notebook, just downgraded the other one. Now, everything works fine!
