Supported Resource Formats

The five resource types a copilot can hold and the file formats each accepts, with links to size limits and format guidance.

Every piece of documentation you add to a copilot is a resource. InSkill has five resource types.

Size Limits and InSkill GPT Support

Not every format can be read by InSkill GPT. A file it cannot read can still be uploaded and opened by a Technician, but its contents are not used to answer questions. Files lists every extension with its size limit, whether InSkill GPT can read it, and whether it opens in the browser or downloads.

Choosing a Format

If content already exists in a format, keep it as it is. For new content — including tables, large datasets, and material that changes often — see Content Best Practices.
