Document loader: How can i create chatflow / customize so i can have end-user upload pdf or URL to analyze each time

How can i create chatflow / customize so i can have end-user upload pdf or URL to analyze each time?

I'd like to use flowise to run API calls to a front-end application where end-user can upload a URL, pdf, etc. and can discuss / analyze with the chatbot.
Therefore, my chatflow needs to take in a dynamic file / URL.

Anyone already doing this or have any suggestions? Thank you!!

I didn't try but if I were you, I would use the front end app to upload the pdf and embed it in a vector database.

Then I would build a flow that use this Vector database.

thank you so much for reply. yes, i ended up following youtube tutorial and got what i needed. (bubble front-end, flowise chatflow via pinecone upsert), at least for this topic, the important section is about the chartflow embed/api function in youtube :). hope it may help others for reference

From the Video at around 12:30 Min mark I got

Click Embed button on your upsert Flow
Click Show Input Config
e.g. you can add date to the pdf step with
formData.append("files", input.files[0])

Use an API Call to the URL with the fields you want and it would upsert the document. But as a frontend you will need another tool to have a browser upload button that then calls this api end point...

Yup, thanks for insight i think ur correct.
I personally am using bubble front-end and basically have different API calls for the upsert vs. "calling / querying".

THink this is the way to go, thank you
