# Manual Upload Guide

> Upload or paste ad hoc transcripts and notes directly into Hearflow without connecting an integration.

Add one-off feedback files or transcripts directly in Hearflow.

<Note>
  **Permissions** — Members and owners can submit manual uploads. Viewers have read-only access and cannot upload transcripts or paste new content.
</Note>

## When to use manual upload

* You have ad hoc interviews or customer notes outside connected tools
* You want to test extraction quality before enabling a full integration

## Upload flow

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the upload action">
    In your workspace, open [Dashboard](/dashboard) and choose manual upload.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add files or paste content">
    Upload supported text files or paste raw transcript content in the provided input.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Review and process">
    Submit the upload and Hearflow sends it through the same insight extraction pipeline.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## What gets extracted

**Insights and evidence** — The same categories, frequency, and evidence model used for connected integrations.

**Reusable source record** — Uploads are tracked as source records so teams can audit and revisit raw input.

<Note>
  **Data access** — Manual uploads stay in your tenant scope and are processed with the same multi-tenant security controls as integrations.
