Your IP Vault provides enterprise-grade security, ensuring your proprietary information remains completely isolated to your digital twin instance.

File Access Control

Effective March 11, 2026 — In an effort to continuously secure the IP Vault, all files are now protected by a three-tier access control system.
Every file in your IP Vault is assigned one of three access levels:
Access LevelWho Can ViewDescription
PublicAnyone with the linkThe file owner has explicitly opted to make the file publicly accessible. Anyone with the URL can view it.
Private (default)Signed-in membersRequires sign-in and an active membership to the digital twin associated with the file. This is the default for all files.
ConfidentialFile owner onlyRestricted to the file owner. No other users — including administrators — can access it.
Files must be explicitly set to Public if you want to share their URL with third parties. Accessing a file that is not set to public without being signed in will display a Sign-in Required page.
You can change a file’s access level from its file actions menu. To change the access level for all files in a collection at once, use the Make All Public or Make All Private options in the collection menu. File context menu showing the Make Public action Files accessed through the IP Vault will load in a preview when the content type is supported. File preview showing a PDF document with page thumbnails If you attempt to access a file without the required permissions, you will see a denial page explaining why access was blocked and how to resolve it. Sign-in required page displayed when accessing a private file without authentication

Vault Tabs

Your IP Vault organizes files into three tabs based on scope:
TabVisibilityWho Can Upload
My FilesOnly youYou
Institution FilesAll users in your institutionAdministrators
Account FilesAll users across all institutions in your accountAccount administrators
Your Digital Twin automatically references files from all three tabs during conversations. Institution and Account files allow administrators to share common knowledge resources — such as policies, handbooks, or course materials — with all users.

Vault Health Indicators

Each tab displays a health indicator showing your file counts in the format included / total:
  • Included — Files actively used by your Digital Twin for RAG responses
  • Total — All files in that vault (excludes deleted items)
For example, My Files - 3 / 5 means 3 of your 5 personal files are currently included in your knowledge base. Toggle individual files on or off using the Exclude from RAG action in File Actions.

Maximum upload limit: 500 MB total across all files
Audio & Video Processing: Audio and video files of any size are automatically transcribed and chunked into separate text segments for RAG indexing. Currently, Pria extracts speech-to-text transcriptions from media files. Advanced features — including cue point detection, speaker diarization, and timestamp linking — are in active development.

File Upload Types

Your IP Vault supports three convenient methods for adding content, each optimized for different use cases: Files Upload Types

Device Upload

Upload files directly from your computer:
  1. Click Device in the upload dialogue
  2. Browse and select files from your local storage
  3. Click Upload to add them to your vault
Ideal for documents, presentations, and media files stored locally.

Import Web Content via URL

Easily import content from any web page:
  1. In the upload dialogue, select the URL tab
  2. Enter the complete web page address
  3. Select Scrape site to include all dependent pages
  4. Click Import to add the content to your vault
Perfect for articles, documentation, and online resources.

Paste from Clipboard

For quick content addition:
  1. Copy any text content to your clipboard
  2. Select the Clipboard option in the upload dialogue
  3. Paste and save your content
Great for quick snippets, notes, and copied text.
These features are perfect for importing articles, documentation, or any web-based content your digital twin should reference.
Verify scraped content: After uploading via URL, review the extracted text content. If the scraped content appears as garbage (containing only JavaScript instructions), the source page may be protected by a content management system. In this case, export the content directly from the source site and upload it as a file instead.
Remember that the quality of the documents you put-in determins the quality of the response that come-out.

Managing Your Files

Each file in your IP Vault comes with powerful management options: Files Actions List Web

File Actions Explained

  • Exclude from RAG - Toggle whether your Digital Twin can reference this file in responses
  • Make Public - Set the file to Public access so anyone with the link can view it
  • Make Private - Set the file to Private access so only signed-in members can view it
  • Rename - Update the file name for better organization
  • Download - Save a copy to your device
  • Delete - Permanently remove the file from your vault
  • Reprocess Content - Re-extract and re-index the file’s content for RAG. Use this when processing initially failed or to refresh embeddings
  • Move to Instance - Transfer the file to an institution’s shared file collection (admin only)
  • Copy Name - Copy the file name to clipboard
  • Copy URL - Copy the file’s shareable URL to clipboard. The recipient must have appropriate access to view the file
  • RAG Segments - View the text chunks extracted from this file for RAG indexing
  • View Details - See comprehensive file information including size, type, upload date, and processing status

Sorting and View Options

Your IP Vault includes sorting and display controls to help you organize and browse files efficiently:
ControlFunctionOptions
Sort by DateOrder files by upload date Newest first (↓) or oldest first (↑)
Sort by NameOrder files alphabetically A → Z (↑) or Z → A (↓)
Grid/Compact ViewToggle display density Grid view or compact list
Click the active sort button again to reverse the order (toggle between ascending and descending).

Bulk Operations

Select multiple files to perform operations on them all at once. Use the checkboxes on file cards or the “Select All” option to choose files, then use the bulk action toolbar. Available bulk actions:
ActionDescription
IncludeAdd selected files to the AI’s knowledge base (RAG indexing)
ExcludeRemove selected files from the AI’s knowledge base without deleting them
DeletePermanently delete selected files
Move to CollectionMove selected files into a collection (folder)
Make PublicMake selected files accessible via public download link
Make PrivateRestrict selected files to authenticated access only
ReprocessRe-index selected files in the AI knowledge base (useful after content updates)

Download as ZIP

You can download an entire collection as a ZIP archive. This includes all files in the collection and any nested sub-collections, preserving the folder structure.
ZIP downloads have a maximum size of 1 GB. For very large collections, download sub-collections individually.

Import Course Packages (IMSCC)

Pria supports importing IMS Common Cartridge (.imscc) course packages — the standard export format used by learning management systems like Canvas, Blackboard, Moodle, and D2L. How it works:
  1. Upload a .imscc file to your IP Vault
  2. Pria automatically extracts the course content:
    • Syllabus and course overview pages
    • HTML content from lessons, assignments, and modules
    • Images and media embedded in course pages
    • Discussion topics and announcements
  3. Extracted content is organized into collections and indexed for AI retrieval
This is a powerful feature for migrating course content from another LMS into Pria. Your Digital Twin can immediately reference the extracted course materials in conversations.
Image-heavy courses may take longer to process, as Pria uses AI vision models to generate descriptions for embedded images.

Best Practices

Organize Effectively

Use descriptive file names and detailed descriptions to improve AI-powered search and retrieval

Control Access

Use file access levels — Public, Private, or Confidential — to control who can view your files. Set files to Public only when you intend to share them externally

Build Comprehensively

Add diverse content types to create a rich knowledge base for more intelligent responses

Keep Current

Regularly update and refresh dynamic content to maintain accuracy
Your digital twin becomes more intelligent with every file you add! Build a comprehensive knowledge base that enables quick, accurate, and contextually relevant responses.
