Supported files
The type is decided by the file extension. Legacy
.doc files, spreadsheets and slide decks are not supported; export them to PDF or .docx first. Scanned PDFs without a text layer contain no extractable text.
Limits
- Each file can be up to 1 MiB by default. Your MITHUNAI administrator sets this limit for the deployment and can raise it. The console does not show the figure, because it is deployment configuration; a file over the limit is refused with a message saying so.
- Up to 1,000 files and 64 MiB per upload request.
- If any file in a batch is unacceptable, the whole batch is refused and nothing is stored. Fix or remove that file and upload again.
Upload in the console
- Open Knowledge and select Connect a knowledge source.
- Choose File upload and select your file.
- Save. The file is stored and ingestion starts.
