Research direction

Start with writerai/resources/graphs.py at GraphsResource.add_file_to_graph and reproduce the request against /v1/graphs/{graph_id}/file using an already-associated file. Trace how the SDK handles the server response and establish the expected behavior for redundant additions; done means the case is handled without an uninformative unhandled exception.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

(if you think this is solvable through the SDK alone (pretty sure that is the case), happy to contribute a PR, in that instance any guidance would be awesome)
To reproduce:

from writerai import Writer
from dotenv import load_dotenv
import os

load_dotenv()

WRITER_API_KEY = os.getenv("WRITER_API_KEY")
WRITER_APP_ID = os.getenv("WRITER_APP_ID")
if not WRITER_API_KEY or not WRITER_APP_ID:
    raise ValueError("missing env vars")

client = Writer(api_key=WRITER_API_KEY)

page = client.files.list(graph_id="5f19a...") # Graph containing a file
graph_id = page.data[0].graph_ids[0]
file_id = page.data[0].id

graph_file = client.graphs.add_file_to_graph(
    graph_id=graph_id,
    file_id=file_id
)

Error message:
