# File attachment

## Overview

File attachments lets you upload files or URLs as part of your prompt inputs when interacting with the model. This feature enhances the prompting experience by providing additional context, data, or reference materials that the model can use to generate more accurate and relevant responses.

{% hint style="info" %}
File attachments provide additional context or reference materials. Unlike the knowledge base or Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), which send only relevant portions, all attached files are sent to the model for a more comprehensive input.
{% endhint %}

## Get started

{% hint style="info" %}
Our file attachment feature supports `.png`, `.jpg`, `.jpeg`, `.webp`, `.gif`, `.pdf`, `.csv`, and `.txt` formats. You can upload up to **5 files per prompt**, with a maximum size of **50 MB** each.
{% endhint %}

1. Open your Sandbox and click the attach button on a prompt. You can attach files or URLs.
