To enable Storytell’s AI functionality via our API or SDKs, you’ll first need to connect your assets to Storytell. You can do this in one of several ways:

Connect to Cloud Storage

Connect Storytell to Amazon S3, Google Storage or Amazon Blob storage buckets

Upload via API

Connect to Storytell programmatically to load and sync assets via API

Invoke an AI agent

Storytell can interface with AI agents instead of (or in conjunction with) your raw data

Manual file upload

If you just want to test Storytell in a sandbox environment, you can use our standard user-facing file upload capabilities

​
Connect to Cloud Storage

Storytell transforms your cloud storage into an intelligent asset hub, automatically processing and analyzing documents as they arrive. This real-time processing means your team always has the latest insights without manual intervention.

Key storage platforms supported:

  • Amazon Web Services (AWS) S3 buckets for enterprise-scale document storage
  • Google Cloud Platform Buckets (GCP) for teams leveraging Google’s infrastructure
  • Microsoft Azure Blob Storage for Microsoft-centric organizations

Contact us for details on connecting to these platforms

​
Upload and sync from your datastores via API

import {useAssetUploader, AssetFile, AssetConfig} from "@storytellai/client";
import fs from "fs";
import path from "path";

​
Configuration

interface AssetConfig {
  collectionId: string;
  organizationId: string;
  tenantId: string;
  apiKey: () => string;
}

​
Usage

  1. Create asset object:
const asset: AssetFile = {
  source: filePath,
  name: fileName,
  size: fileSize,
  file: File
};
  1. Initialize uploader:
const uploader = useAssetUploader({ apiKey: () => config.apiKey });
  1. Upload file:
uploader.newManagedAsset(
  asset,
  config.collectionId,
  config.organizationId,
  config.tenantId
);
await uploader.onConfirm(false); // Set true to enable progress updates

​
Complete Example

const addAsset = async (filePath: string, cfg: AssetConfig) => {
  const fileStats = await fs.promises.stat(filePath);
  const fileContent = await fs.promises.readFile(filePath);
  const asset: AssetFile = {
    source: filePath,
    name: path.basename(filePath),
    size: fileStats.size,
    file: new File([fileContent], path.basename(filePath))
  };
  const uploader = useAssetUploader({ apiKey: () => cfg.apiKey });
  uploader.newManagedAsset(
    asset,
    cfg.collectionId,
    cfg.organizationId,
    cfg.organizationId
  );
  await uploader.onConfirm(false);
}

Invoke an AI agent

By adding your pre-built AI agents to Storytell’s LLM Router, you can direct Storytell to interface with these agents to answer user queries.
