Select the plus button next to the message box, choose Upload files, and pick the files. They upload as chips above the message box and are sent with your next message.
What a model accepts is decided by the model, not by AI Studio, so the picker offers different file types on different models.
Four ways to attach
- Upload files from the plus button, labelled More options, opens your device's file picker. You can select several files at once.
- Drag files onto the thread. An overlay reads Drop files here to upload.
- Paste an image straight into the message box.
- Add from Drive opens your Drive files. Search by name, narrow by File type, then choose Add as attachment.
An image-capable model also offers Add photo from URL. On a model that reads video the same item reads Add photo or YouTube video from URL. Paste the address into URL and select Add.
Size limits
| Kind | Largest accepted |
|---|---|
| Image | 20 MB |
| Video | 1000 MB |
| Document | 100 MB |
A file over the limit is refused with Following could not be uploaded: and the file's name and size.
Before you send
Each attachment appears as a chip. Select Remove on a chip to take it off the message. On an image chip you can add a description for people using screen readers with Add image description.
Wait for every chip to finish. Sending early shows Please wait until all files are uploaded. and nothing is sent.
Attachments are not carried over to a new thread. Attach them again if you start one.
If it did not work
- A file was refused: see A file was not uploaded.
- The plus button offers no upload item: the model you are on takes no files. Change model, then attach again. See Choose a model.
- Add from Drive shows Error fetching files: close the window and open it again.
- A chip says Some files failed to upload: remove it and attach the file again.

- A file was not uploaded — AI Studio refuses a file when it is too large, when the model cannot read that type, or when the upload itself failed. Each case names itself.
- Attach a repository to a thread — Attach up to five GitHub repositories to a thread so the model reads their file listing and README as reference on every message.
- Choose a model — Select the model name at the top of a thread, pick a group, then pick a model. A model picked from a provider group becomes your default.
