Short answer
No, you cannot edit a document directly within AskTuring.

Full explanation
AskTuring does not have a built-in document editor. If you need to change a document:

  1. Download the file from your Project.

  2. Edit it using your preferred application.

  3. Re-upload the updated version to the same Project.

When re-uploaded, the system will treat it as a new version and update search results accordingly. To make sure the system correctly understands it as an update, make it clear in the version notes that it is a newer version of an existing document. If the file is identical to an existing one, the duplicate detection feature will prevent it from being uploaded.

Tips

  • Keep original file names consistent when replacing documents so they are easier to track.

  • If you remove an outdated version, be sure the updated file is fully processed before relying on it for queries.
