Unable to upload PDF to vector files with "The file could not be parsed"

[GRiDD]

Confirm this is a Node library issue and not an underlying OpenAI API issue

• This is an issue with the Node library

Describe the bug

I am using nodejs sdk

"openai": "^4.97.0"

Got :

{
  result: {
    id: 'file-KD9fKNTgyPNSXmNgWpdpUn',
    object: 'vector_store.file',
    usage_bytes: 0,
    created_at: 1746646146,
    vector_store_id: 'vs_681bb47f51ec819188b63fff74653f81',
    status: 'failed',
    last_error: { code: 'invalid_file', message: 'The file could not be parsed.' },
    chunking_strategy: { type: 'static', static: [Object] },
    attributes: {}
  }
}

This works fine with text based files and assistant

To Reproduce

        const fileContent = fs.createReadStream('Quick-Start.pdf');

        const vectorStore = await openai.vectorStores.create({
            name: "API docs",
        });

        const result = await openai.vectorStores.files.uploadAndPoll(vectorStore.id, fileContent);

        console.log({ result });

I’m experiencing the same issue. It would be helpful to get an official confirmation on whether this is a bug or a recent change in the API behavior.
