​
File Size Limits

​
Default Limits

  • Maximum file size - Typically 10-100MB per file
  • Total upload size - Varies by plan
  • Recommendations - Compress large files before uploading

​
Handling Large Files

If your file exceeds the limit:
  • Compress - Use ZIP compression
  • Split - Divide large files into smaller chunks
  • Optimize - Reduce image resolution or remove unnecessary data
Upload limits depend on your Xagent configuration and plan. Contact your administrator for specific limits.

​
Upload Process

​
Step 1: Select Files

Choose files from your device:
  • Click file upload button or drag & drop
  • Select one or multiple files
  • Files appear in upload queue

​
Step 2: Upload Progress

Files are uploaded to your task workspace:
  • Progress indicator - Shows upload status
  • Success confirmation - Files ready for use
  • Error handling - Failed uploads show error message

​
Step 3: Submit Task

With files attached:
  • Describe your task - Tell Xagent what to do with the files
  • Submit task - Files are stored in task workspace
  • Execution begins - Agent can now access files

​
During Task Execution

​
File Access

Once uploaded and task is submitted:
  • Files are stored in task workspace
  • Agent can access files automatically
  • Agent decides when and how to use files
  • Files remain available throughout task execution

​
Agent File Operations

Agent can:
  • Read - Access file contents for analysis
  • Parse - Extract text and data from documents
  • Process - Analyze and transform content
  • Create - Generate new files as output

​
File References

You can reference uploaded files in your request: 
User: [Uploads sales_data.csv, product_info.pdf]
User: "Analyze the sales data and create a presentation
        incorporating information from the product PDF"

Agent:
1. Reads sales_data.csv to understand data structure
2. Reads product_info.pdf for product details
3. Analyzes data and extracts key information
4. Creates PowerPoint presentation
5. Saves presentation to workspace

Best Practices

​
File Preparation

Before uploading:
  • Use clear, descriptive filenames
  • Organize related content in single files when possible
  • Remove sensitive or confidential information
  • Compress large files
  • Check file size limits
Good examples:
  • sales_q4_2023.csv - Descriptive name
  • contract_vendor_acme.pdf - Clear identification
  • code_review_main.py - Purpose in name
Less effective:
  • data.csv - Not descriptive
  • file1.pdf - No context
  • document.txt - Generic name

​
Multiple Files

When uploading multiple files:
  • Use consistent naming conventions
  • Group related files
  • Provide context in task description
  • Consider upload order if it matters
Example: 
User: [Uploads q1_sales.xlsx, q2_sales.xlsx, q3_sales.xlsx, q4_sales.xlsx]
User: "These are quarterly sales files for 2023. Analyze trends
        across all quarters and create a comprehensive report."

​
Task Descriptions

Help the agent understand your files: Instead of: 
"Process these files"
Try: 
"Analyze the sales data in sales_2023.csv and create a visualization
showing monthly trends. Use the brand guidelines in brand.pdf
for the presentation style."

​

  • File size within limits
  • File format is supported
