in AI search, we have enabled attachments to be indexed on the indexed sources as screen attached.
However, this is not working for Excel attachments. What are we missing on these?

Hi @Kass3m ,
AI Search ignores attachments larger than 25 MB in size. Standard indexing only indexes content from the first 1 MB of the attachment's data, while semantic vector indexing indexes the attachment's full content.
Attachment indexing is controlled by an indexed source's index_attachments attribute. To verify that attachment indexing is enabled for an indexed source, see Enable indexing of attachments for an indexed source.
