Work with ingestions

The ingestions feature allows you to process unstructured data sets, such as native files and email messages. You can also extract metadata and load processed data directly into the application. You can configure settings for ingestions such as filtering by search term families and date ranges, and managing deduplication.

Note: If a native file cannot be obtained for an ingested document, the application attempts to create a text file from that document. The text file is named using the Document ID.
