My Files & File Attachments
My Files is your personal cloud storage that works seamlessly with your AI agent. Upload any files, and your agent can search, read, and use them across all conversations — in web chat and every connected messenger.
My Files
What Is My Files?
Think of My Files as a shared workspace between you and your AI assistant. When you upload documents, spreadsheets, images, or any other files, they're automatically processed and understood by your agent. You don't need to attach a file every time — just ask a question, and your agent already knows what's in your documents.
Getting Started
Click My Files in the sidebar (or press F) to open your files
Upload files by dragging and dropping, or click the Upload button
Organize files into folders as needed
That's it — your agent can now access these files in any conversation
What Makes My Files Special
AI-Ready Automatically Every file you upload is automatically read and understood by your AI agent. Behind the scenes, Crew creates smart indexes (vector embeddings) of your documents so the agent can instantly find relevant information when you ask a question.
Search by Content, Not Just File Names Need to find something? Don't remember the file name? No problem — search by what's inside the file. Your agent finds the exact document based on the content, not just the title.
Works Everywhere Files in My Files are accessible from web chat, WhatsApp, Slack, Telegram, Discord, LINE, KakaoTalk, Microsoft Teams — every channel you've connected. Ask about a document on your phone through WhatsApp, and your agent pulls up the answer.
Folder Upload Support You can upload entire folders at once. Drag a folder from your computer into My Files, and the folder structure is preserved.
What You Can Do
Ask your agent to work with your files naturally:
"Find the meeting notes from last month and summarize them."
"Search my files for anything related to the Q4 budget."
"Organize all my files into folders by category."
"Compare these two reports and tell me the key differences."
"Save this conversation as a document in my files."
Agent-Created Files
When Crew creates a document, image, spreadsheet, or other file during a conversation, it's automatically saved to the Agent folder in your files. These agent-created files:
Are accessible from any future conversation
Don't count toward your storage quota
Are automatically cleaned up after 90 days

Tips
Use My Files for files you'll reference repeatedly — upload once, ask about them anytime
Use chat attachments for one-off analysis — quick questions about a specific file
Upload multiple files in one message for comparison or combined analysis
Combine with tools: Upload a spreadsheet, then ask Crew to run code to analyze it — the file is automatically available in the code sandbox
