Upload (palette name Upload) asks the person in a chat session to send a file, then continues. Restrict by Type, or choose Other and list Accepted Mimes. Shared bind, navigation, and error options are on Input.

Configure

Setting	Description
Type	Image, video, audio, PDF, Word, Excel, text, presentation, archive, or Other
Accepted Mimes	Only when Type is Other. Leave empty to allow any file
Prompt	Optional message before the uploader
Error Handler / Navigation / Binding Variable	Shared input options

Handles

Handle	Role
In (target)	Incoming connection
Out (source)	Continues after a valid file (or skip / ignore)

Pipe schema

The next block reads this on the data pipe (pipe.value).

Key	Type	Description
`id`	text	File id
`size`	number	Size in bytes
`type`	text	Generic type
`mime`	text	MIME type
`url`	text	Download URL
`name`	text	File name

If Binding Variable → Key is set, the same object is stored under that name. Send the file later with File or a similar output block.

When you write this object into a table, each property maps to a column by exact key (id, not Id).

Use case

Ask for a PDF or image before creating a record. Copy or Move the file into the library if the record should outlive the conversation.
Restrict to images so the next step can show Image output.
