Azure Machine Learning enables you to create a vector index from files or folders on your machine, a location in cloud storage, an Azure Machine Learning data asset, a Git repository, or a SQL database. Azure Machine Learning can currently process .txt, .md, .pdf, .xls, and .docx files. You can also reuse an existing Azure Cognitive Search index instead of creating a new index.

The sample prompt flow has key features like automatically generated prompt variants. You can evaluate each of these variations by using the [generated test data](https://aka.ms/prompt_flow_blog). Metrics against each of the variants help you choose the best variant to run. You can use this sample to continue developing your prompt.
