Uploading & managing files
You upload files straight into the Knowledge area, where they sit alongside your notes and stay searchable.
Upload a file
- Open the Knowledge area in the sidebar.
- Click + and choose Upload file.
- Drag the file into the dashed zone or choose it there. The title is prefilled from the file name and can be changed; a description is optional.
- Create file becomes available once a file is chosen. The file then stands in the Knowledge list, opened beside it.
Manage
Select a file from the list to open it beside the list. Under the title stand the type, the number of versions, who created it, the date and the AI's state; below them the description and, if there is one, the AI's summary. From there you can:
- change title and description via the pencil or ··· → Rename,
- upload a newer version via Create new version (see Versioning),
- download a version via the sign beside it,
- remove the file with all of its versions via ··· → Delete document …, after a confirmation.
Usable by the AI
Once AI is set up for your organisation, Lalabase reads every file for chat and search by itself; no switch is needed. Under the title stands indexed once that has happened, and Index failed if the file could not be read.
Optionally, let the AI write a summary on upload. Depending on size this takes a few minutes; it then stands under the description as Summarised by the AI.
If your organisation has no AI access yet, the form says so in one sentence: the file is saved, but not searchable. Whoever may open the AI settings finds the way there as Set up access.
