Uploading a PDF File to ChatGPT

Date:

ChatGPT has been a great assistant for students and professionals alike having features like making summaries, asking helpful questions and guiding them through the tasks. However, ChatGPT does not have the feature of file uploads and it can be quite challenging if you have a document or book and you are in need of uploading a PDF file. So how do you go about uploading a PDF file to ChatGPT? Here is how anyone with a PC/phone with an internet connection and browser like Google Chrome can upload and use PDF file with ChatGPT.

By using the ChatGPT API, there are many handy tools and extensions that grant the users the ability to upload and analyze PDF files. Many of the tools are paid and come with certain language limitations. However, there is a free alternative for users, in the form of a third-party fork of Hugging Face, known as BookGPT. This tool allows users to upload and work with PDF files from local drive and URLs. It also provides citations if the user needs page numbers. Here is how by following these few steps you can upload and use a PDF file through ChatGPT:

1. Sign in and create an account at OpenAI
2. Go to ‘your account’ section and click on your username
3. Generate a new API key and make sure to note it down safely as it cannot be viewed again
4. Download and download the ChatGPT bridge, BookGPT app
5. Paste the API key at the appropriate field
6. Enter in the query or the task you need to carry out in the ‘Question’ field
7. Upload your PDF document either from local drive or from a link
8. Start working with the document through ChatGPT

It has to be noted that, in our testing, publicly shareable files hosted on Google Drive, did not work as intended. However, cloud storage services such as Dropbox worked just perfectly.

Be it for professional use or for academic performance, knowing how to upload a document to ChatGPT through BookGPT is an essential function. By following the steps mentioned above, it is quite doable to use the tool for their purpose.
