1. Set Data Source Name & Type

  • Click Datastores in the left-hand pane, followed by the Create button in the top right.
  • Give your datastore a unique name, then click the local file upload button (the left panel) as the method for adding content to your datastore. Click the Next button.

2. Upload & Process Your File

  • On the Datastores page, click the Upload button.
  • Drag and drop or select the file to upload, and click the Start Uploading button.
  • After Contextual AI finishes processing your file, go back to the Datasources page. You should see your newly-created datasource with the previously uploaded file.
