# Upload a knowledge file

`POST /v1/messaging/accounts/{accountId}/business-agent/files`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://apihub.co.il`
- URL: `https://apihub.co.il/v1/messaging/accounts/{accountId}/business-agent/files`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Accepted types: pdf, doc, docx, png, jpg, jpeg, plus csv and xlsx when Meta enabled
extraction on the asset. Meta's limit is 100 MB. Two ways to send the file:
- JSON `{ url, fileName }`: Zernio downloads the file (public https URL, no redirects,
  capped at 100 MB) and forwards it. Use this for anything above a few megabytes.
- multipart form-data with a `file` part (and an optional `fileName`): bounded by the
  request body limit of about 4.5 MB; larger uploads must use the `url` form.
Not idempotent.


**Billing:** Request; paid actions are priced in credits (see GET /v1/messaging/prices) · **Rate limit:** 60/min
