Properties
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| id | string | The identifier, which can be referenced in API endpoints. |
| object | string | The object type, which is always `vector_store` |
| created_at | integer | The Unix timestamp (in seconds) for when the vector store was created. |
| name | string | The name of the vector store. |
| usage_bytes | integer | The total number of bytes used by the files in the vector store. |
| file_counts | object | Files count grouped by status processed or being processed by this vector store. |
| status | object | The status of the vector store, which can be either `expired`, `in_progress`, or `completed`. A status of `completed` indicates that the vector store is ready for use. |
| expires_after | object | Details on when this vector store expires |
| expires_at | integernull | The Unix timestamp (in seconds) for when the vector store will expire. |
| last_active_at | integernull | The Unix timestamp (in seconds) for when the vector store was last active. |
| metadata | objectnull | A set of up to 16 key/value pairs that can be attached to an object, used for storing additional information about that object in a structured format. Keys may be up to 64 characters in length and val |
