1. Is this request related to a challenge you're experiencing? Tell me about your story.

We want to enable users to upload files in the workflow and have them directly added to the knowledge base, so that large files can be retrieved seamlessly via RAG. We hope to add a node specifically for uploading files to the knowledge base. Although there is currently an API available for this, it is not easy to use.

2. Additional context or comments

3. Can you help us with this feature?
