        "content": {

Files

The Tela SDKs allows you to easily process files, such as PDFs, by creating a completion. You can use various file sources including public URLs, vault URLs from uploaded files, or pass multiple files in a single variable.
When passing file URLs directly (without using the SDK’s .createFile() method), you must wrap them in an object with a file_url property. The .createFile() method handles this formatting automatically.

​
Single File Processing

Below is an example of processing a single PDF document: 
import { createTelaClient } from '@meistrari/tela-sdk-js'
import type { TelaFile } from '@meistrari/tela-sdk-js'

const tela = createTelaClient({
    apiKey: process.env.TELA_API_KEY,
})

const completion = await tela.completions.create<{ document: TelaFile }, { fileSummary: string }>({
    canvasId: process.env.TELA_CANVAS_ID,
    variables: {
        document: tela.createFile('https://www.wmaccess.com/downloads/sample-invoice.pdf'), // It is possible to pass a URL, Buffer, Blob, etc.
    },
})

​
Using Vault URLs

After uploading a file using the /v3/files endpoint, you can use the vault URL in your completions. When not using the SDK’s .createFile() method, you need to wrap the URL in an object with a file_url property: 
// First, upload a file and get the file ID
const fileId = '3fa85f64-5717-4562-b3fc-2c963f66afa6' // UUID from file upload

const completion = await tela.completions.create({
    canvasId: process.env.TELA_CANVAS_ID,
    variables: {
        document: { file_url: `vault://${fileId}` }, // Using vault:// URL as object
    },
})

​
Multiple Files in a Single Variable

You can pass multiple file URLs in a single variable as an array: 
const completion = await tela.completions.create({
    canvasId: process.env.TELA_CANVAS_ID,
    variables: {
        documents: [
            { file_url: 'https://example.com/file1.pdf' },
            { file_url: 'https://example.com/file2.pdf' },
            { file_url: 'vault://550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000' }, // Mix of public and vault URLs
        ],
    },
})

​
Streaming

The Tela SDKs provides a stream option, which allows you to consume the stream of the completion. Below is an example of consuming a stream of the completion. 
import fs from 'node:fs'
import { createTelaClient } from '@meistrari/tela-sdk-js'
import type { TelaFile } from '@meistrari/tela-sdk-js'

const tela = createTelaClient({
    apiKey: process.env.TELA_API_KEY,
})

const PATH = 'examples/stream/sample-invoice.pdf'
const fileStream = fs.createReadStream(PATH)

const completion = await tela.completions.create<{ document: TelaFile }, { fileSummary: string }>({
    canvasId: process.env.TELA_CANVAS_ID,
    variables: {
        document: tela.createFile(fileStream),
    },
    stream: true,
})

for await (const chunk of completion) {
    console.log(JSON.stringify(chunk))
}

​
Webhook

The Tela SDKs provides a webhookUrl option, which allows you to receive a webhook when the completion is finished. Below is an example of receiving a webhook when the completion is finished. 
import { createTelaClient } from '@meistrari/tela-sdk-js'

const tela = createTelaClient({
    apiKey: process.env.TELA_API_KEY,
})

const webhook = await tela.completions.create({
    canvasId: process.env.TELA_CANVAS_ID,
    variables: {
        document: tela.createFile('https://www.wmaccess.com/downloads/sample-invoice.pdf'),
    },
    webhookUrl: 'https://webhook.site/12345',
})
For detailed information about the webhook payload structure, see the Webhook Payload Structure section in the completion API guide.
