WHAT IT DOES

Cloud storage gives you a private container to upload files into, then ingests them and keeps them in sync on a schedule. It's the best fit for a large or frequently-changing set of documents you'd rather manage as a folder than upload one batch at a time.

Before you start

Step by step

  1. Open Sources → Add source → Cloud storage.
  2. Configure: enter a Source name, an optional Description, and a Refresh frequency (Hourly, Daily, Weekly, or Monthly). Select Provision container.
  3. Upload: copy the SAS URL shown, upload your files into the container with your tool of choice (an azcopy example is provided), then select Ingest now. You can Rotate SAS to issue a fresh link at any time.
  4. Done: your files process into entries and appear in your Sources list, and refresh automatically on the schedule you set.

Step 1 of the cloud-storage flow: name the source and set a refresh schedule, then provision a container to upload into.

Every setting

Security & data handling

Zammo provisions a private storage container for you and issues a time-limited upload link (SAS URL) as the credential — there's no password to manage. The link has an expiry (shown as "valid through"); Rotate SAS issues a new one and revokes the old. Only files you place in the container are ingested; the content is stored in your workspace and indexed into the knowledge bases you add it to.
