Files

Files help XY work with the same documents and reference materials your team already uses. They are often the bridge between human process knowledge and day-to-day automation.

How files are added

  • Direct upload: Drop files into the Files section to make them available to workflows immediately.
  • Storage sync: Connect supported storage sources such as Google Drive or OneDrive so XY can work from the folders your team already uses.

What files can be used for

  • Agent context: Attach files to workflows so Agents can follow your policies and templates instead of relying on generic answers.
  • Knowledge Base workflows: Use trusted files and folders as the source of truth for question answering and guided work.
  • Workflow input: Use files as the starting point for data extraction, review, and downstream automation.

Format flexibility

Most common business document types are a good fit, including PDFs, images, documents, and spreadsheets.

Practical examples

  • policy documents used by a knowledge-base workflow
  • uploaded referral or intake documents
  • spreadsheets used as reference or operational input
  • synced folders that act as a shared source for ongoing work
