To upload documents directly to an Amazon Q Business application, you can use the AWS Management Console or the BatchPutDocument API operation.
If you use an Amazon Kendra index to retrieve your documents, you can't directly upload documents.
The following tabs provide a procedure for the AWS Management Console and code examples for the AWS CLI.
