1. Is this request related to a challenge you're experiencing? Tell me about your story.
Currently, the file upload mechanism requires manual selection of individual files (e.g., .md/.txt/.pdf) through the file picker dialog. This workflow presents three key limitations:
Low Efficiency: Users managing knowledge bases with 50+ files require 50+ manual selections
Structural Loss: Nested directory structures (e.g., /docs/API/v1/spec.md) cannot be preserved during upload
Error Prone: Manual multi-selection in system file dialogs often leads to accidental omissions

...and you forgot an important point. What happens when files are updated? How to keep these in sync. The 50 manual steps can be prevented like so (problem solving for poor men):
- go on a windows machine and select the folder you want to ingest
- enter * or *.pdf or whatever in the search box (file select box - upper right corner)
- mark every file showed.
- select import
but the file update problem isn´t solved. What i´m doing is:
- add every file again like described above....
- dify isn´t able to see that some of the files are already ingested and EVERYTHING will be indexed again
This is my main pain point with dify
