Files API status

Not yet available

Meridian does not currently expose a native /v1/files REST surface. File upload and retrieval happen exclusively through the message pipeline.

How files work today

  • •Files are inline-encoded directly inside message content using base64 data URIs or multipart message bodies.
  • •The assistant receives files as part of the standard /v1/messages request payload.
  • •No separate upload endpoint, no file ID, no persistent storage reference.

Roadmap

A dedicated /v1/files endpoint with multipart upload, persistent storage, and file-level access control is on the near-term roadmap. Until then, inline encoding remains the supported path.
