  • File Name (From Files API) (required) — Provide the file resource name from the Files API (e.g., files/abc123) to import.
  • Metadata — Optionally specify custom metadata key-value pairs associated with the imported document.
  • Wait for Completion — Choose whether the node should poll until the document is fully indexed before returning.
