Amazon Q Business introduces ability to reuse recently uploaded files in a conversation

Posted on: Nov 22, 2024

Amazon Q Business is a fully managed, generative AI–powered assistant that can answer questions, provide summaries, generate content, and securely complete tasks based on data and information in your enterprise systems. Users can upload files and Amazon Q can help summarize or answers about the files. Starting today, users can drag and drop files to upload and reuse any recently uploaded files in new conversations without uploading the files again.

With the recent documents list, users save time searching and re-uploading frequently used files to Amazon Q Business. The list is only viewable by the individual who uploaded the file and they can clear the cached list by deleting the conversation in which the file was used. Along with the recent documents list, users can now drag and drop files they want upload directly into any conversation inside Amazon Q Business.

The ability to attach from recent files is available in all AWS Regions where Amazon Q Business is available.

You can enable attach from recent files for your team by following steps in the AWS Documentation. To learn more about Amazon Q Business, visit the Amazon Q homepage.
