Hi @@yenijc
To upload a file and create a list item based on it:
1- Set up file upload functionality in your application.
2- Handle the uploaded file on the server-side.
3- Extract the desired data from the file.
4- Create a new list item using the extracted data.
5- Provide feedback to the user confirming the item creation.
These steps will allow users to upload a file and automatically generate a list item based on its contents. Adapt the process to your programming language, platform, and requirements.
