Knowledge now natively ingests Excel files by routing spreadsheets through the CSV reader. Each sheet is parsed into its own document with sheet-level metadata and normalized cell content. This removes manual pre-processing steps and makes enterprise spreadsheet data immediately searchable and useful in retrieval workflows.

Details:

  • Each sheet becomes a separate, metadata-rich document for targeted retrieval
  • Normalized cell content improves parsing, chunking, and search quality
  • Works via SDK and API with no special configuration

Who this is for: Knowledge and data platform teams standardizing enterprise documents for RAG and search.
