-### Step 4: Configure Authentication (Required)
+### Step 4: Process Sample File Bundles (Optional)
+
+After schema registration, you can upload and process the included sample claim bundles to verify the deployment is working end to end. Each sample folder (`claim_date_of_loss/`, `claim_hail/`) contains a `bundle_info.json` manifest that maps files to their schema classes.
+
+The workflow for each bundle:
+1. **Create a claim batch** with the schema set ID via `PUT /claimprocessor/claims`
+2. **Upload each file** with its mapped schema ID via `POST /claimprocessor/claims/{claim_id}/files`
+3. **Submit the batch** for processing via `POST /claimprocessor/claims`
+
+You can perform these steps via the web UI or the API directly. See the [API documentation](./API.md) and [Golden Path Workflows](./GoldenPathWorkflows.md) for details.
+
+> **Note:** When deploying via `azd up`, sample file processing happens automatically as Step 4 of the post-provisioning hook.
+
+### Step 5: Configure Authentication (Required)
 
 **This step is mandatory for application access:**
 
 1. Follow [App Authentication Configuration](./ConfigureAppAuthentication.md).
 2. Wait up to 10 minutes for authentication changes to take effect.
 
-### Step 5: Verify Deployment
+### Step 6: Verify Deployment
 
 1. Access your application using the Web App URL from your deployment output.
 2. Confirm the application loads successfully.

 ### 5.4 Test the Application
 
+> **Note:** The post-deployment hook automatically uploads and processes two sample claim bundles (`claim_date_of_loss` and `claim_hail`). You can verify the results in the web app immediately after deployment.
+
 **Quick Test Steps:**
-1. **Download Samples**: Get sample files from the [samples directory](../src/ContentProcessorAPI/samples) — use the `claim_date_of_loss/` or `claim_hail/` folders for auto claim documents.
-2. **Upload**: In the app, select the **"Auto Claim"** schema set, choose a schema (e.g., Auto Insurance Claim Form), click Import Content, and upload a sample file.
-3. **Review**: Wait for completion (~1 min), then click the row to verify the extracted data against the source document.
+1. **Check Processed Results**: Open the web app — you should see the two sample claim batches already processed with extracted data.
+2. **Review**: Click a processed claim row to verify the extracted data against the source document.
+3. **Upload More (Optional)**: To test additional uploads, get sample files from the [samples directory](../src/ContentProcessorAPI/samples), select the **"Auto Claim"** schema set, and upload via Import Content.
 
 📖 **Detailed Instructions:** See the complete [Golden Path Workflows](./GoldenPathWorkflows.md) guide for step-by-step testing procedures.
