from llama_cloud import LlamaCloud

client = LlamaCloud(api_key="LLAMA_CLOUD_API_KEY")

file_obj = client.files.create(file="path/to/your/file.txt", purpose="user_data")

```typescript import fs from "fs"; import { LlamaCloud } from "@llamaindex/llama-cloud";

const client = new LlamaCloud({
  apiKey: "LLAMA_CLOUD_API_KEY",
});

const fileObj = await client.files.create({
  file: fs.createReadStream('path/to/your/file.txt'),
  purpose: 'user_data',
});
```

```python file_obj = client.files.upload(upload_file="path/to/your/file.txt") ``` ```typescript const fileObj = await client.files.upload({ upload_file: "path/to/your/file.txt", }); ``` ``` # Step 1: Generate a presigned URL for file upload curl -X POST "https://api.cloud.llamaindex.ai/api/v1/files/presigned-url" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $LLAMA_CLOUD_API_KEY" \ -d '{ "name": "example.txt" }'

# Step 2: Use the presigned URL to upload the file to S3 within 30 seconds
curl -X PUT "https://your-presigned-url-from-step-1" \
    -H "Content-Type: text/plain" \
    -F 'file=@path/to/your/example.txt'

# Step 3: Confirm the file upload with LlamaCloud
curl -X PUT "https://api.cloud.llamaindex.ai/api/v1/files/sync" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer $LLAMA_CLOUD_API_KEY"
