Error in Knowledge Base
# ❓・bug-report
f
Hi everyone, I’m currently trying to set up my knowledge base in Retell, but I’m running into an error when uploading a file. I’ve tried uploading a plain text file named Criminologia.txt, but the system returns the following error message: “Failed to process the knowledge base: Error creating knowledge base file source: Criminologia.txt” I have double-checked that it is a standard .txt file. Has anyone else encountered this issue? Are there any specific restrictions regarding file size, encoding (like UTF-8), or special characters in the filename that I should be aware of? I’ve attached a screenshot of the error for reference. Any help or guidance on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1473107765022163046/1473107765185609788/KB.png?ex=69950204&is=6993b084&hm=f4837542528afc9cca5b2d08680a55012d8801b3e1c444ee9dddabf7ef945dc8&

Hey @Colin - Integrations @ Retell AI @Omar Ashraf | Community Lead I encountered a similar issue. I was trying to add a CSV file of 19 mb and got this error. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1473107765022163046/1480925996290019358/image.png?ex=69b1734f&is=69b021cf&hm=09cf8172b9dcff6590bef70260be5dfec3752df348143966fd075f7afb036143&

Hi @Meet_CH
Try splitting your CSV into smaller files with fewer than 1,000 rows each, and upload them as separate files.
You can also create multiple knowledge bases to overcome these limits.

Hello @Shehroze -Support @Retell Then why is it the limit of maximum file size is 50 mb if we cannot attach a large file.
