Roomote can read supported file attachments from the web app and from Slack threads where you start or continue a Roomote task. Use attachments when the file itself is the fastest way to show the problem: a bug report export, a config file, a markdown handoff, a spreadsheet, or a PDF from a customer.Documentation Index

What works well
Attach files when you want Roomote to:- inspect structured data without pasting it into the message
- read logs, config files, or source snippets as-is
- work from a spreadsheet or report export
- use screenshots and other images as direct visual context

How Roomote uses them
Text, code, spreadsheet, document, and presentation files are read into the task as attachment context. Images are passed through as image inputs so Roomote can inspect them directly. That means you can ask things like:- “Compare this export to the expected format and tell me what is broken.”
- “Read this config and explain why the service is failing.”
- “Check this customer PDF and draft the fix plan.”
- “Look at this screenshot and tell me what UI state it shows.”
Best practices
- Attach the smallest file that shows the issue clearly.
- Add one sentence explaining what you want Roomote to do with the file.
- For spreadsheet or report exports, mention the tab, column, or row range that matters most.
- For PDFs and documents, call out the section or page if you already know it.
Common issues
- The attachment is huge. Trim it down or export just the relevant sheet, log window, or section.
- The attachment is a format not listed here. Export it as one of the accepted formats above.
- The task still needs more context. Add a short prompt that explains the question, expected behavior, or failure you want Roomote to investigate.
