Key Capabilities
Indexing Live API Data
The best part is using `get_trace` output to index results. Instead of just printing a trace, LlamaIndex turns that raw execution data into searchable knowledge. You can then query past system behavior and get answers grounded in real API history. This capability makes your RAG applications way smarter. The data isn't hallucinated; it comes straight from the `get_trace` records.
Building Knowledge Bases
You can populate and manage knowledge through `list_knowledge_bases`. LlamaIndex treats this server as a source of structured truth. You can feed documentation or API outputs into the index, making all your data retrievable via semantic search. This structure allows you to build highly specific applications that answer questions based on your entire corporate data set.
Data Retrieval and Listing
When you need context, use `list_workflows` or `get_workflow`. These tools provide the schemas necessary to build effective retrieval pipelines. You can then combine workflow definitions with document chunks in a unified search index. It's about combining structured system knowledge with unstructured documents for maximum query power.
