Auto-retry

Retry failed uploads from the records table.

Auto-linking

Best practices

Use clear file names that help you identify respondents later, for example: “Interview_John_Doe_2024-01-15.mp4”
You can upload multiple files at once. The system will process them sequentially.
For text files, ensure they’re properly formatted transcripts or notes that Aseed can process. See Upload text transcripts for detailed information about text file formats and parsers.
