Overview

In the Agent Editor, open Knowledge to connect sources from your knowledge bases. You can connect at three levels:
  • Entire knowledge base
  • Folder
  • Individual item(s)

Connect Knowledge

1

Open an agent

Go to AI Agents, open an agent, then open the Knowledge tab.
2

Click Connect Knowledge

Use Connect Knowledge (or Add Knowledge from the empty state).
3

Pick from the knowledge browser

In the Connect Knowledge panel, use the left tree to select a knowledge base or folder.
4

Connect at the level you need

  • Knowledge base level: Connect Entire KB
  • Folder level: Connect Folder
  • Item level: select items, then use Connect Items

What You See After Connecting

The connections table includes:
  • Name
  • Type (Entire KB, Folder, Item)
  • Path
  • Mode (Expert Mode only)
  • Items
  • Remove action (trash icon)
You can remove a connection at any time.

Mode Controls

Expert Mode You can:
  • Choose RAG or Context when connecting a knowledge base, folder, or selected items
  • Change connection mode from the table Mode column
  • Toggle an existing connection mode from the browser panel
In Simple mode, connections use RAG by default.

Context Budget

Expert Mode When using Context mode, the UI enforces a 10,000 token budget across all context connections. If a source exceeds remaining context budget, the UI blocks the switch and shows a warning.

Connection Behaviors to Know

  • If an entire knowledge base is connected, folder/item entries under it are effectively inherited.
  • If a folder is connected, items in that folder are inherited.
  • The folder browser shows inherited/connected state so you can avoid redundant connections.

Test Your Setup

After connecting knowledge:
  1. Open your agent test flow.
  2. Ask questions that should be answered from connected sources.
  3. Verify answers are grounded in your content.
