The upload_file method uploads a file to Narada cloud, making it available for use as an attachment in subsequent agent requests. This is particularly useful for document analysis, data extraction, and any task where the agent needs to process file content.
Uploaded files are temporarily stored and expire after 24 hours. Files can only be accessed by the user who uploaded them.

            prompt="Summarize the key points from the attached report",
            agent=Agent.GENERALIST,
            attachment=file
        )

        print(f"Summary: {response.text}")
