Create a new dataset version by uploading a CSV or JSON file. The file is processed asynchronously and webhooks are sent when complete. Files are uploaded to AWS S3 for processing.

​
Authentication

This endpoint requires API key authentication only.

​
Asynchronous Processing

This endpoint initiates an asynchronous job to process the uploaded file. The actual dataset version creation happens in the background. A draft dataset (version_number = -1) is created immediately, and upon successful processing, it’s assigned a proper version number.

​
Webhooks

The following webhooks are triggered during the process:
  • dataset_version_created_by_file - Sent when the dataset version is successfully created
  • dataset_version_created_by_file_failed - Sent if the dataset creation fails

​
Notes

  • Maximum file size: 100MB
  • Failed drafts are automatically cleaned up
