Whenever i make a new bot with some files, for my first message it says : "I’m unable to access your files can you please paste it here. " When i say “You have access” and gaslight it, it works perfect for the next consecutive messages. How do i fix this?

My assistant is always unable to access files but when i gaslight it it works

Welcome to the best AI dev forum around!

What’s your system message look like? You might add something that mentions what to do with uploaded files?
