List Existing Files with Python
You can list all the files that exist in a deepset Cloud workspace.
Prerequisites
- Install the SDK
- Generate an API Key to connect to a deepset Cloud workspace.
List Files Script Examples
List All Files in a Workspace
Here's a basic script example you can use to list all files in a workspace:
from deepset_cloud_sdk.workflows.sync_client.files import list_files
for file_batch in list_files(
api_key="<deepset Cloud API key>",
workspace_name="<your_workspace>",
batch_size=10,
):
for file in file_batch: # Lists with length 10 of files
print(file.name)
from deepset_cloud_sdk.workflows.async_client.files import list_files
async def my_async_context() -> None:
async for file_batch in list_files(
api_key="<deepset Cloud API key>",
workspace_name="<your_workspace>",
batch_size=10,
):
for file in file_batch:
print(file.name)
List Files by Name
Here's an example of how to use the list_files()
method to list files in a workspace by their name:
from deepset_cloud_sdk.workflows.sync_client.files import list_files
for file_batch in list_files(
api_key="<deepset Cloud API key>",
workspace_name="<your_workspace>",
name="specific_filename.txt" # Uses fuzzy search for file names
batch_size=10,
):
for file in file_batch:
print(file.name)
from deepset_cloud_sdk.workflows.async_client.files import list_files
async def my_async_context() -> None:
async for file_batch in list_files(
api_key="<deepset Cloud API key>",
workspace_name="<your_workspace>",
name="specific_filename.txt" # Uses fuzzy search for file names
):
for file in file_batch:
print(file.name)
List Files by Filter
This example uses an OData filter to list files in a workspace:
from deepset_cloud_sdk.workflows.sync_client.files import list_files
for file_batch in list_files(
api_key="<deepset Cloud API key>",
workspace_name="<your_workspace>",
odata_filter="modified gt 2023-01-01T00:00:00Z"
):
for file in file_batch:
print(file.name)
from deepset_cloud_sdk.workflows.async_client.files import list_files
async def my_async_context() -> None:
async for file_batch in list_files(
api_key="<deepset Cloud API key>",
workspace_name="<your_workspace>",
odata_filter="modified gt 2023-01-01T00:00:00Z"
):
for file in file_batch:
print(file.name)
