ChatBot and Agent apps support user-uploaded documents and interactive buttons and forms
Discover new models and tools

⚡️ Parallel Iterations and Improved Workflow Reliability

The iteration node can now handle arrays output from upstream nodes in parallel, processing multiple items simultaneously instead of one at a time. We've also added error handling to ensure the process continues even if individual tasks fail.

📁 File Variables in LLM Nodes

You can now use File and Array File variables directly in the LLM Prompt editor within Workflows to handle documents, images, and audio files (currently supporting gpt-4o-audio-preview).

📚 Knowledge Base API

Dify Knowledge Base is now available as an independent service via its API. Developers can query and retrieve chunks directly from Dify knowledge bases.

💻 Code Generator

For beginners in coding, our awesome community has built a tool that can assist when using the Code node in workflows. It's perfect for simple coding tasks like string processing and data conversion.

💬 ChatBot and Agent Upgrades

Enhance your AI app conversations with interactive buttons and form s built with HTML and TypeScript. These elements make conversations more engaging and user-friendly.

Additionally, ChatBot and Agent apps now support user-uploaded documents (e.g., PDFs, markdown files, spreadsheets) if your model supports document processing.
