MaxKB Release Update: Enhanced File Interaction & Q&A Experience

We’re excited to announce the latest update to MaxKB, bringing powerful new features and a range of critical bug fixes. This release focuses on improving file interaction and the Q&A experience, making the platform more efficient and intuitive to use.

✨ Enhancements

1. Support for Custom File Types in Uploads

The application now supports uploading custom file types. These files can be parsed by defining your own custom parsing functions. This offers more flexibility for handling diverse data formats.
