Knowledge Bases API

Knowledge Bases endpoints exposed by the Devotel CPaaS API Base path: /api/v1/knowledge-bases Endpoint count: 20

List knowledge bases

GET /api/v1/knowledge-bases/

List every knowledge base in the current tenant, newest first, with cursor pagination. Use it to populate a knowledge-base picker or to resolve a base’s id before uploading documents or running a search. List rows omit the heavy config blob — fetch a single base to read it. Requires the knowledge:read scope.

List the immutable version lineage of a knowledge-base document — the current head plus every retained snapshot of a superseded version, newest first.

Get knowledge-base search config

GET /api/v1/knowledge-bases/{id}/search-config

Read a knowledge base’s retrieval re-rank / relevance-boost config — recency boost, per-source weights, category include/exclude, and the minimum-score threshold that govern which chunks ground every agent answer for this KB. A KB that has never been tuned reads back as the neutral default (every field a no-op, identical to legacy raw-similarity ordering). Read-only; requires the knowledge:read scope.

Get knowledge-base staleness report

GET /api/v1/knowledge-bases/{id}/staleness

Freshness scorecard for a knowledge base: classifies every non-chunk document as fresh, stale, or critical against its review-cadence window and returns the bucket totals plus an oldest-first attention_required queue, so you can spot the articles most likely to ground a wrong agent answer. A document’s age is measured from its last operator-verified time (falling back to its last update); the default window is 90 days, overridable per request. Read-only; requires the knowledge:read scope.

string

required

Knowledge base ID (kb_…).

integer

Org-wide review-cadence window in days applied to documents without a per-document override. Defaults to 90.

Create a knowledge base

POST /api/v1/knowledge-bases/

Create a knowledge base — the RAG container that documents are uploaded into and that AI agents search at answer time. Optionally set a recurring refresh_schedule so URL / connector-backed sources re-scrape on a cadence; it defaults to manual (scrape-once). Returns the created base. Requires the knowledge:write scope (admin / owner / developer).

string

required

Human-readable name for the knowledge base.

string

Optional summary of what this base contains.

Upload a document

POST /api/v1/knowledge-bases/{id}/documents

Upload a document into a knowledge base. Accepts either a JSON body with inline text content, or a multipart/form-data file upload (PDF, DOCX, or image — extracted via OCR). The document is queued for asynchronous chunking and embedding, so it is returned in processing status; poll the document list until it reaches ready. Requires the knowledge:write scope (admin / owner / developer).

string

required

Knowledge base ID (kb_…).

string

required

Document title.

string

Source type / extension (e.g. text, markdown, pdf, html). Defaults to text.

string

required

The document body (inline text). Max 10 MB via this JSON path.

Reject a pending document

POST /api/v1/knowledge-bases/{id}/documents/{docId}/reject

Reject a document that is pending moderation review. Flips its publish lifecycle to rejected; its chunks are never indexed, so it stays out of agent retrieval. Optional reviewer notes are stored on the document so the submitter gets actionable feedback. Requires the knowledge:write scope (admin / owner / developer).

string

required

Knowledge base ID (kb_…).

string

required

Document ID (doc_…).

Roll back to an earlier version

POST /api/v1/knowledge-bases/{id}/documents/{docId}/rollback

Restore a retained earlier version of a knowledge-base document. Non-destructive: the target version’s content is re-uploaded as a new head version (the current head is snapshotted into history first), so rollback is fully reversible. Returns 202 with the freshly-minted head document. Requires the knowledge:write scope (admin / owner / developer).

Trigger an immediate knowledge-base refresh

POST /api/v1/knowledge-bases/{id}/refresh

Force an immediate re-sync of a knowledge base’s external sources (URL / RSS / connector-backed documents) instead of waiting for its scheduled cadence. Flips the base’s next_refresh_at to now so the refresh worker re-scrapes and re-embeds its sources on the next tick.

Search a knowledge base

POST /api/v1/knowledge-bases/{id}/search

Run a semantic search over a knowledge base and return the top-matching document chunks, ranked by relevance. This is the same retrieval an AI agent uses to ground its answers, so use it to preview what an agent would retrieve for a question or to build your own RAG flow. When a per-base search config is active, recency, source weighting, and category filters are applied before results are truncated to limit. Requires the knowledge:read scope.

string

required

Knowledge base ID (kb_…).

Natural-language query to embed and match against the base’s chunks.

Update knowledge-base search config

PUT /api/v1/knowledge-bases/{id}/search-config

Replace a knowledge base’s retrieval re-rank / relevance-boost config.

Returns the normalised config. Requires the knowledge:write scope (admin / owner / developer).

string

required

Knowledge base ID (kb_…).

number | string

Minimum raw vector similarity (0..1) a chunk must clear to reach the agent. 0 = no floor (default).

number | string

Recency multiplier strength (0..5). 0 = off (default); fresher docs get up to ×(1 + boost).

number | string

Half-life in days of the recency decay (1..3650). Default 30.

object

Map of source label → score multiplier (0..20, keys matched case-insensitively). Default .

string[]

Allow-list of categories; empty = allow all (default).

string[]

Deny-list of categories. Default [].

string

required

Knowledge base ID (kb_…).
