Uploading files into a conversation and asking ChatGPT to review them sounds like a magic trick, but it’s a practical reality. Got a long report, a spreadsheet, or images and want to extract what matters without losing hours? Now you can do that right inside the chat.
How it works
The flow is simple and designed not to interrupt your work: start a conversation with ChatGPT and then upload the file from the tools menu by selecting “Add photos or files”. Supported formats include CSV, XLSX, PDF, DOCX, JPEG, PNG, TXT and more.
- Upload the file from Tools → Add photos or files.
- Ask a question or give the chat a specific task.
And then? ChatGPT processes the file content in the context of the conversation: it can read tables, review text, interpret basic images, and return results as text or downloadable files.
