# Attaching Images & Files

<figure><img src="/files/vlxI1rxvlUchko57xIHV" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

At this time, ChatNGO only supports attaching images to your chat threads. Other file types such as documents or files from cloud storage (Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive) are coming soon. Here is how you can attach images:

### **How to Attach an Image:**

1. **Locate the Attach Button:**
   * On the chat bar, next to the text input field, click the "Attach" button.
2. **Select Image:**
   * From the menu, select the option labeled **Image**. This will allow you to upload an image from your local device.
3. **Choose the File:**
   * Once selected, your computer’s file explorer will open. Choose the image file (such as PNG or JPEG) you want to upload.
4. **Send Image:**
   * After selecting the file, it will be uploaded into the chat. You can add context to the image by typing a message before clicking the send button (the green arrow) to complete the upload.

### **What is Coming Soon:**

While only image uploads are currently available, future updates will introduce the ability to upload other file types (such as documents) and direct integrations with Google Drive and Microsoft OneDrive.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.chat.ngo/chat/chatting-with-chatngo/attaching-images-and-files.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
