Add knowledge sources

Owners and admins can add authored text, uploaded files, public web pages, and folders from Knowledge Base.

Create text or upload files#

Select Create Text to enter a named text document. Created text is limited to 2 MB.

Select Add Files for .txt, .md, .pdf, .docx, .html, or .epub. Each uploaded file is limited to 20 MB, and its extracted text must also fit the text-content limit. Uploads are processed in sequence; one failed file does not prevent later queued files from being attempted.

PDFs need an extractable text layer. Image-only scanned PDFs are not processed with OCR. Password-protected or corrupted files are rejected.

Import a URL#

Select Add URL, provide an http or https address, choose a folder, and submit. The imported response must be public text, Markdown, or HTML and stay within 2 MB.

Operade rejects private addresses, loopback addresses, link-local addresses, and other non-public network destinations. It rechecks redirected destinations. A page that depends on browser-side JavaScript can produce no readable text because URL import does not render the page as a browser.

Verify ingestion#

Find the new document in Knowledge Base.
Confirm that its status changes from indexing to ready.
Open the item and inspect the source, size, content, and chunk information.
If the status is failed, fix or replace the source instead of attaching it to an agent.

Use limits and troubleshooting for specific failures, then organize or attach and retrieve.
