      summary: Upload a file and start processing it
      description: 'Uploads a CSV or XLSX file (up to 100 MB, 1,000,000 rows) and, by default, queues it. One credit per row, reserved when processing begins; a job that fails is not charged.


        `name_column` is required unless `start=false`: a guessed column that turns out to be wrong would spend credits on the wrong data. Send `start=false` to get the columns, a preview and the credit cost first, then call `/start`.


        If starting fails (no credits, unknown column, AI consent), nothing is left behind: no job, no stored file.


        Send an `Idempotency-Key` header to retry safely: a repeat with the same key returns the first job with `200` and `Idempotent-Replayed: true` instead of opening a second one.'
