Short answer

How can my AI audit my data pipelines?

Your agent uses the Unstructured connector to pull a list of all active data sources and destinations. It then compares these against your specific workflow settings to spot mismatches. You get a clear view of where data is coming from and where it's supposed to land.

Where every issue lands.

Audit outcomes

The AI categorizes its findings based on what it finds in your Unstructured setup.

SOURCE

Source verification

The agent checks every input source. You see exactly which document repositories are currently connected.

TARGET

Destination check

The agent scans where your data is being sent. It identifies all active output targets in your workflow.

LOGIC

Workflow mapping

The agent pulls the specific logic used to move data. You'll see the exact path from source to destination.

HUMAN

Manual fixes

The agent flags configuration errors it can't fix. You decide how to resolve these broken connections.

The workflow

What your AI does when the audit starts.

The agent moves through your Unstructured configuration to build a map of your data movement.

  1. Identify inputs

    The agent pulls a list of every data source currently feeding into your Unstructured workflows.

    list_data_sources

  2. Identify outputs

    The agent checks where the processed documents are being sent by listing all active destinations.

    list_data_destinations

  3. Map the flow

    The agent looks at the specific settings for a single workflow to see how it connects sources to targets.

    get_workflow_details

  4. Flag mismatches

    The agent compares the source and destination lists against the workflow logic to find errors. It reports these directly to you.

    get_workflow_details

FAQ

Common questions about auditing

  • 01

    Can the AI change my pipeline settings?

    No. The agent can only read your configurations. You have to make any changes manually in Unstructured.

  • 02

    Can the AI delete a data source if it finds an error?

    No. The agent has no tools to delete or modify your data sources or destinations.

  • 03

    How does the AI know which workflow is broken?

    It uses the workflow details to compare the expected source and destination against what is actually configured.

  • 04

    Does the AI see the actual documents in my pipeline?

    No. The agent only sees the configuration and metadata of the sources, destinations, and workflows.

  • 05

    Can I audit my entire Unstructured account at once?

    The agent can list all sources and destinations, but you should ask it to check specific workflows to get detailed error reports.
