Short answer

How do I feed my own data into a chatbot?

You give your agent a URL or a document, and it uses ChatFly to add that information to a bot's knowledge base. This makes your specific data available for the agent to reference during chats. You'll see the specific steps below.

The results.

Where your data ends up.

Your agent moves data from your files into a structured format the bot can use.

INGESTION

Data is added

The AI takes the content from your provided links or files. It converts these sources into a format the ChatFly bot can read.

INDEXING

Knowledge is ready

The ingested information is indexed within the bot. Your agent can now pull specific facts from these sources during a conversation.

REVIEW

Human oversight

The AI handles the technical upload, but you decide if the data is correct. You remain in control of the knowledge quality.

USAGE

Bot is active

The bot is ready to answer questions based on the new data. You can test its accuracy immediately in your AI client.

The workflow

What your AI does when the data arrives.

Your agent manages the transfer of information from your sources to the ChatFly bot.

  1. Identify sources

    Your agent checks the existing data to see what is already part of the knowledge base.

  2. Upload content

    The AI pushes the content from your documents or URLs into the bot.

  3. Verify ingestion

    The agent lists the current sources to confirm the new data was successfully added.
