+1, I think the first ask would be migrating to Assistant API v2:

Is the current Vercel API compatible to Assistant API v2?
Are there any breaking changes?
I know that v2 is new but it looks like Assistant API v1 is obsolete.
I could not even setup a version 1 Assistant API on OpenAI anymore. If I try to use the "Switch to v1" button, everything gets grayed out.
Also, it looks like the version 1 assistants were automatically converted to version 2.
So, I have some issues with some assistants that were working, now responding like: “It looks like there aren’t any documents uploaded to search for information about …”.

I have forked my own version of the vercel AI sdk to support file upload! I had to rewrite a small part of the code to make this work!

I created this new SDK to support file upload https://github.com/OpenAssistantGPT/chatbot-sdk

If you are interested you can look at my code here https://github.com/marcolivierbouch/OpenAssistantGPT/blob/main/hooks/use-assistant.ts
