About Storytell
How we manage Storytell user dataHow to upload a file in a thread
To upload a file to Storytell, you have two options:
- Through the chat box:
- Go to your chat dashboard and click the file upload button in the chatbox. This will open an upload modal where you can either click to open your file browser and select the file you want to upload or drag and drop files directly into the modal.
- Through use case categories:
- Select the use case you want to work with and send the auto filled prompt in the provided field by clicking on the Send button. An upload button will appear after Storytell’s initial chat responses. Click on it and select the file you want to upload.
When you add multiple files within a thread, the chat interface will display inserts indicating the contents being added or removed from the files or group of files you are interacting with.
To work with multiple files in a single thread, be sure to provide clear and specific prompts. This helps the LLM understand which content you are referring to during the conversation.
