Authorizations

​
x-access-token
string
header
required

JWT token passed in x-access-token header

Path Parameters

​
fileId
string
required

The file ID to re-ingest

Body

application/json
​
skipIndexing
boolean
default:false

When true, re-downloads the content but skips RAG embedding generation. The file is set to status 'active' with no new embeddings. For YouTube URLs without captions, this allows creating a metadata-only file instead of failing.

Response

Re-ingest result. Check the success field - async RAG errors also return HTTP 200 with success: false.

Successful re-ingestion

​
success
boolean
Example:

true

​
message
string
Example:

"File re-ingested from URL"
