Only JSONL and Parquet files are supported.' / pyarrow not installed / 'Invalid file supplied, failed to uploa… ## Body Cause (Documented platform behavior): The SDK runs local dataset checks per purpose: CSV only for eval, Parquet not for eval, extensions limited to .jsonl/.parquet/.csv, UTF-8 and size (50.1 GB) checks. Fix status: documented_behavior Other error fragments: - Only JSONL and Parquet files are supported. - Parquet files are not supported for - Only JSONL and CSV files are supported. - pyarrow is not installed and is required to use parquet files. Please install it via `pip install together[pyarrow]` - Invalid file supplied, failed to upload. Report: - Only files with extensions .jsonl, .parquet, and .csv are supported.
