L7: Running agents within input from specified file

Short Course Q&A Multi AI Agent Systems with crewAI
1

I am working off of the basic setup tutorial and the multi-agent system course to make an agent that would take its input from a text file in a folder instead of text from within the main project file. Right now, it looks like this:

def run():
    """
    Run the crew.
    """
    inputs = {
        'agent_Input': [text the agent uses]
    }
    
    try:
        Detoxbot().crew().kickoff(inputs=inputs)
    except Exception as e:
        raise Exception(f"An error occurred while running the crew: {e}")

I haven’t had luck having the agents reference a file within the project folder instead of a string variable. I’m hoping one of you out there could share how you set up your project to get an agent to open and read from a specified file? Thanks!
