Steps

  1. Open the Upload Files page.
  2. Drag and drop a file into the upload area, or click Browse Files to select one from your computer.
  3. No file ready yet? Click Try with Sample Data to explore Supabind with a preloaded dataset.
  4. Wait for the file to finish processing. You can cancel an upload in progress at any time.
  5. Continue to Data Transformation.

Every file must include column headers in the first row. Files without headers will fail validation and won't be imported.

Upload Cancellation

Started the wrong upload? Cancel it mid-transfer without affecting previously imported files.

Batch Processing

Large files are automatically broken into batches so uploads stay fast and reliable.

Upload from Google Drive

Connect your Google Drive account to import datasets directly into Supabind.

Automatic Folder Monitoring

Once folder monitoring is enabled, Supabind continuously watches the selected Google Drive folder. Whenever a new file is added, the platform automatically detects it, imports it into your workspace, validates the dataset, and makes it available for workflows without requiring manual uploads.

Upload via FTP / SFTP

Securely connect your FTP or SFTP server to automatically import files into Supabind.

Automatic Folder Monitoring

After connecting your FTP or SFTP server, you can monitor a remote directory. Whenever a new file is uploaded to the monitored folder, Supabind automatically imports it and starts the configured processing workflow.
