Supported File Types
When your connection is storage-based (e.g., cloud storage services), you can upload the following file formats:
  • Data Formats:
    • CSV
    • JSON
    • Parquet
    • Avro
    • Delta Lake
  • Document Formats:
    • PDF (GCP Support Only)
    • XML
  • Automatic File Type Detection
    • This option attempts to determine the file type by inspecting the file extension.
      Note: Reading PDF files requires enabling Gemini in your GCP workspace.
