import openai,io
import requests

openai.api_key = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

class FileLike(io.BytesIO):
  def __init__(self, _bytes, filename=None):
    super().__init__(_bytes)
    self.name = filename

url = "https://ccrb.s3.cn-northwest-1.amazonaws.com.cn/%E7%BB%B3%E8%88%9E%E9%A3%9E%E6%89%AC%E6%B4%BB%E5%8A%9B%E7%BB%BD%E6%94%BE.doc"

r = requests.get(url)
fileName = url.split("https://ccrb.s3.cn-northwest-1.amazonaws.com.cn/")[1]

bytes_io = io.BytesIO(r.content)
file_bytes = bytes_io.read()

res = openai.files.create(
  file=FileLike(file_bytes, fileName), purpose="assistants"
)
if res.id and res.status == "processed":
  file = openai.files.retrieve(res.id)
  print(file)

I tried to test it with the API, but it still reported an error, but the documentation says it supports doc format

@Panweitong OpenAI accepts files of various formats (e.g., .txt, .csv, .json, .pdf, .docx, .doc, etc.), but it's always good to ensure that the version of the API you're using indeed supports doc files.

If you're attempting to use doc files, ensure the content is properly extracted, as doc is a binary format, and OpenAI may have trouble directly interpreting the binary content.
