Document upload and organisation for the user
Is your feature request related to this sample app, or to an Azure service, such as Azure OpenAI or Azure AI Search? This feature request is related to the sample app itself, specifically its user interface and backend data management functionality.
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Currently, there is no visible option within the sample app’s frontend to upload or organize custom data/documents. As a result, users must directly interact with Azure resources (such as Blob Storage) outside the app, which can be cumbersome and less user-friendly.
Describe the solution you'd like I would like to see a built-in frontend and backend feature that allows users to upload, manage, and organize their own documents and data directly within the app interface. This could include features such as a file upload button, document organization tools (folders/tags), and status indicators for indexing or processing.
Is this feature specific to your use case or your organization, or would it apply broadly across other uses of this app? This feature would apply broadly to many users of this app, as uploading and managing custom data is a common requirement for document generation and AI-powered search solutions. It would help improve the onboarding and overall user experience for anyone deploying this accelerator.
Describe alternatives you've considered The current alternative is to manually upload documents into Azure Blob Storage and trigger indexing through Azure Portal or other Azure management tools. However, this is less accessible for non-technical users and disrupts the workflow within the app itself.
Additional context Is there any plan or roadmap to implement a frontend and backend for uploading and organizing custom data within the sample app, so users don’t have to rely solely on Azure Portal or external tools? This would be extremely helpful for enhancing usability and adoption.
Hi @tbsonio - Thanks for reaching out to us. We will update you shortly on your queries.
Hi @Roopan-Microsoft and Team
What is the status on this. Would appreciate an update on this. Thanks!
Hi @tbsonio ,
We currently have Bash scripts for uploading and processing data, which you can review here. For instructions on how to run them, please refer to step 5 in the Deployment Guide.
As for adding this data upload and processing feature to the user interface, we will add it to our backlog and will evaluate the possibility of implementing it in the future. Thank you for your suggestion!
