How to Complete the Azure Document Loader Form?
Looking at this Azure Document Loader form, here's what you need to do to complete it:
Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. Name (Required)
Enter a name for your data source in the text box
This helps you identify your documents later
Example: "Business Documents," "Invoice Collection," or "Research Files"
The placeholder shows "My data source" as an example
⚠️ This field is required (red warning shown)
2. File(s) (Required)
Click on the upload area that says "Drop your file here"
Or click "Click to browse or drag files here" to select files from your computer
You can upload multiple files at once
Supported file types:
Documents: PDF, DOCX
Images: JPEG, JPG, PNG, BMP, TIFF, HEIF
Spreadsheets: XLSX

⚠️ This field is required (red warning shown)
3. Chunk Size
Set how many tokens or characters should be in each chunk
Default value is 1024 (recommended for most cases)
You can change this number if needed
This controls how your document content is divided for processing
4. Select Embedding Model
Default "OpenAI - Text Embedding 3 Small" is already selected
You can change this by clicking the dropdown if needed
This model processes and understands your document content
5. Review Cost Warning
