Create a new data job. The job_type field determines the workflow:
  • principle_files — generates a QA pair dataset for instruction fine-tuning
  • context_grounded_files — generates context-grounded training data from uploaded documents
  • context_grounded_vector_db — generates context-grounded training data using an existing vector database
Newly created jobs have no files attached. Use POST /v1/flow/data-jobs/{id}/add-files to attach uploaded file IDs after creation. For the complete workflow, see Create instruction fine-tuning data or Create context-grounded fine-tuning data.
