This data type is a UNION, so only one of the following members can be specified when used or returned.

Your code might not need to encode the document file bytes if you're using an AWS SDK to call Amazon Q Business APIs. If you are calling the Amazon Q Business endpoint directly using REST, you must base64 encode the contents before sending.
