Build Bounded Document Ingestion Pipelines

Get-OfficeDocumentIngest combines folder discovery and document reading into one bounded operation. It reports files scanned, files parsed, chunks produced, and errors instead of forcing every caller to rebuild the same orchestration.

Select the corpus

$result = Get-OfficeDocumentIngest -FolderPath '.\Knowledge' `
    -Extension docx,pdf,md,html,json,yaml `
    -MaxFiles 1000 -MaxTotalBytes 2GB

Use -NoRecurse for a single controlled directory. Extension filters keep unrelated files outside the parser path. Reader options and content bounds should match the same policy used by search and chunk extraction.

The ingest-folder recipe ingests supported documents from a simple .\Documents folder.

Keep indexing, embeddings, databases, or network publication outside the Reader command. Reader owns deterministic document extraction; the downstream system owns storage and retrieval policy.
