Project Folders

Project Folders let you upload multiple files together under a single project

Response Files vs Context Files

When uploading files to a Project Folder, you'll designate each file as either a Response File or Context File.

Both Response files and Context files are used as Context for Iris to answer questions

Response files go through the standard Iris flow — they land in your staging area for review turn into Question for edits and approvals.

Context files are reference material. Iris reads them to inform its answers but doesn't treat them as questionnaires to complete.

Some examples of good Context Files: Appendices from an RFP, Previously completed questionnaires you did the same Customer, an industry overview document

When to Use Context Files

Use the Context tag for supporting documents you want Iris to reference — things like prior responses, product overviews, or compliance reports. Iris will use that information to answer questions more accurately without requiring you to add it to the Knoweldge Map.
