I can't add .xlsx files as a knowledge source from sharepoint

Posted on by RH-03121305-0 2
Hello,
 
I am building an agent from copilot studio, my source of knowledge is some folders in sharepoint, but when I add the path, only word and pdf files appear, but the .xlsx files do not appear.  It seems as if some type of permission should be enabled, but I can't find where.
 
I appreciate your help.
 
 
 
To the left of the image you can see Copilot Studio, only the word and pdf files appear.  To the right of the image is the sharepoint source where you can see more files including xlsx, but these do not appear on the left.
Excel file size does not exceed 1 Mb.

    Hello,
     
    probably the Excel files via SP library are not supported, see here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/release-plan/2023wave2/microsoft-copilot-studio/use-internal-sharepoint-content-generative-answers. It's an archived doc, but I also cannot select the Excel files when searching like you did. You can upload the files manually or use a different datasource like a Sharepoint List.
     
    In case of any other questions, let me know. If the answer helped you, mark it, so that others can benefit from it.
     
    Best regards,
