Testing Your Implementation
Step 1: Upload CSV
# In dashboard, click "Bulk Import Vectors"
# Select "CSV" format
# Upload docs/sample-bulk-import.csv
# Click "Preview" - should show 5 vectors
# Click "Import" - should import 8 vectors
Step 2: Upload JSON
# Click "Bulk Import Vectors"
# Select "JSON" format
# Upload docs/sample-bulk-import.json
# Click "Preview" - should show 5 vectors
# Click "Import" - should import 8 vectors
Step 3: Test Errors
# Try invalid CSV (no header)
# Try invalid JSON (malformed)
# Verify error messages appear
Troubleshooting
