| # | Input | Expected behavior | Check |
|---|---|---|---|
| 01 | Operator backfills 1M vectors and submits a single upsert with 5000 vectors in one request payload. | Per docs, recommended batch size is up to 100 vectors per upsert request (payload size also bounded by 2 MB). Split into batches of ~100 and upsert concurrently with backoff on 429. Do not push payloads to the 4xx ceiling. | Pass / FailAi Platformhigh |
| 02 | Operator upserts vector id='doc-42' with new values and partial metadata {title:'Updated'}, expecting other metadata keys (author, year) to remain. | upsert is REPLACE by id — the provided metadata object overwrites the entire metadata blob. Other keys are dropped. For partial metadata edits use the update endpoint with set_metadata{...}, which merges only the listed keys. | Pass / FailAi Platformcritical |
| 03 | Operator wants to atomically clear a metadata key (set status=null) via update with set_metadata={status:null}. | Per docs, set_metadata MERGES the listed keys into existing metadata. Use a sentinel value or explicitly upsert the full metadata blob to clear a key; null is not a documented delete marker. Verify behavior against docs before relying on it [REQUIRES-VERIFICATION for null-delete semantics]. | Pass / FailAi Platformhigh |
