Guides: Knowledge Base

Knowledge Base. Everything your agent answers from.

Add your website, files, text snippets and Q&As. Each source is read in the background, and websites can be read again daily or weekly so answers stay current.

Where to find it

Train → Knowledge Base. It has two tabs: Sources (everything the selected agent knows) and Missing answers (questions it could not answer). Each agent has its own knowledge.

Four ways to add knowledge

TypeBest forLimits
WebsiteYour site's pages: products, services, help and policies.One page, or up to 50 pages of a site. Public addresses only.
FilesPDFs, documents and price lists that are not on your site.PDF (scanned PDFs too), Word (.docx), CSV, text, Markdown and images, up to 50 MB each.
Text snippetFacts you write yourself, such as opening hours or a policy.A title and up to 200,000 characters.
Q&AExact answers to specific questions.One question and its answer. Instructions cannot be given here.

You can also drop files anywhere on the page to add them to the selected agent.

Add a website

  1. 1Choose Add website and type the address.
  2. 2Choose Whole site (follows links from that page, up to 50 pages, starting from your sitemap when there is one) or This page only.
  3. 3Choose Keep in sync: Off, Daily or Weekly. With Daily or Weekly, the site is read again on that schedule; pages that did not change are not processed again.
  4. 4Optionally open Crawl options (see below), or choose Choose pages… to pick exactly which pages to read (up to 50).
  5. 5Choose Add. The source shows Queued, then Processing ("Reading pages: 12 of 32"), then Ready.
Crawl optionWhat it does
Only readOnly pages under these paths are read, for example /help. The address you add is always read.
Skip sectionsPages under these paths are not read, for example /blog or /careers. Up to 20.
Gentle crawlReads one page at a time with a short pause, for sites that block fast readers.
Render JavaScriptOpens pages in a real browser first, for sites whose content is drawn by JavaScript.

Keep knowledge accurate

  • Source of truth: open a source and switch it on. It is ranked higher and wins when another source says something different. Use it for pricing and policies.
  • Refresh now reads a website again straight away. Answers keep using the last read until the new one is ready; if a refresh fails, the previous read stays in use.
  • Edit changes a text snippet or Q&A; it is processed again after Save and re-process.
  • Retry a failed source, Cancel one that is still processing, or Delete one you no longer want. Deleted knowledge stops shaping answers straight away.
  • Search by title or address, and filter by type or status.

Only add content you are happy for the agent to repeat to customers. Text inside your knowledge is treated as information, never as instructions: a page that says "ignore your rules" is not obeyed. To change how the agent behaves, use Optimize.
