How to update bot knowledge with new URLs

Connect your agent to live web pages to keep its information current. Once connected, your AI can pull facts directly from the links you provide.

Ask AI about this page

Short answer

How do I add new website links to my chatbot's knowledge?

You give your agent a URL, and it crawls the page to ingest the text. This expands what the bot knows without you having to manually upload files. You'll see the new data reflected in its responses immediately.

Knowledge expansion outcomes

Where your new data lands.

What happens after you feed your agent new data.

SYNCED

Updated knowledge base

The agent pulls text from the provided URL. Your knowledge base stays current with the latest documentation.

VERIFIED

Current bot status

Check exactly which sources the agent is currently using. You can see a full list of active knowledge sources.

ACTIVE

Live bot configuration

The agent pulls its current settings and instructions. You'll know exactly how the bot is behaving.

HUMAN

Manual review needed

If a URL is blocked or the content is too complex, you'll need to step in. The AI won't force-feed broken links.

The workflow

What your AI does when a URL is provided.

The agent handles the heavy lifting of reading and indexing web content.

  1. Fetch bot details

    The agent first checks the current configuration of your bot to ensure it's ready for new data.

    get_bot

  2. Add new web source

    The agent takes the URL you provided and crawls the page to extract relevant information.

    add_knowledge_url

  3. Verify sources

    The agent lists all existing knowledge sources to confirm the new URL was added correctly.

    list_knowledge_base

  4. Confirm integration

    The agent verifies the bot's updated state so you can test the new knowledge immediately.

    get_bot

FAQ

How the knowledge update works

  • 01

    Can the AI update the website itself?

    No. The AI only reads the content from the URL you provide; it cannot change the website's code or text.

  • 02

    Does the AI delete old knowledge when I add a new URL?

    No. Adding a new URL expands the knowledge base. It doesn't overwrite or delete your existing sources.

  • 03

    What happens if a website blocks crawlers?

    If the site prevents scraping, the agent won't be able to add the knowledge. You'll need to provide a different source or a PDF.

  • 04

    How do I know if the URL was successfully added?

    You can ask the agent to list its knowledge base to see the newly added source in the list.

  • 05

    Can I add a whole domain at once?

    No. The tool is designed for specific URLs. You should provide the specific pages you want the agent to learn.
