Knowledge is the foundation of accurate answers from your AI employee. Without a knowledge base, the agent relies only on instructions from the Persona and the model’s general knowledge. With a knowledge base, it provides fact-backed data: prices, terms, descriptions, specifications.Documentation Index

Two Places to Work with Knowledge
AI Textura has two related but distinct sections for working with knowledge:| Section | Location | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Knowledge | Left sidebar menu | Central repository of all sources across all employees |
| Knowledge Base | Tab in a specific employee’s settings | Select which sources from the repository to connect to the agent |
- Uploading via the agent’s “Knowledge Base” tab — the file automatically lands in that agent’s subfolder inside Agents and is immediately connected to the employee.
- Uploading via the “Knowledge” section in the left menu — the file goes to the folder you selected, but is not automatically connected to any employee. You must manually check the checkbox in the desired agent’s Knowledge Base tab.
”Knowledge” Section — Central Repository
The Knowledge section in the left sidebar is a shared repository of files and information sources across all employees. Here you can:- See the full picture: which sources are uploaded and which employees they are connected to
- Organize information into folders
- Add new sources
- Delete outdated data
Interface
The screen is split into two parts: Left panel — folder tree. A hierarchical structure of all knowledge. At the top level is the root folder All knowledge. Click any folder to display its contents in the right panel. Right panel — file table. When you select a folder, a Knowledge files table appears:| Column | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Name | File name, URL, or text source name |
| Type | Element type: Folder, Text, File, Web, etc. |
| Updated | Date of last update |
- Breadcrumbs — navigation through folder levels
- Agent filter (All agents) — show sources connected to a specific employee
- Add button — create folders and upload sources
Folder Structure
By default, the system organizes knowledge as follows:- Agents — a system folder. Subfolders are automatically created for each employee when you add sources via the Knowledge Base tab in the agent’s settings.
- FAQ — a folder for entries from the self-learning section that have been sent to the knowledge base.
- Custom folders — create them at any level to organize by topic, department, or project.
Creating a Folder
Filtering by Agent
Above the table there is an All agents dropdown. Select a specific employee to see only the sources connected to them. This is useful when you need to understand which knowledge a particular agent uses.”Knowledge Base” Tab — Per-Employee Settings
Open the desired AI employee → Knowledge Base tab. Here you select which sources from the shared repository to connect to this agent.Interface
The screen is split into two parts: Left panel — folder tree. All folders with knowledge sources. Each folder has a checkbox:| Checkbox state | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Checked | Sources from this folder are connected to the current employee |
| Unchecked | Sources are not in use |
| Partially checked | Some sources inside are connected, some are not |
| Column | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Access | Checkbox — whether the source is connected to this employee |
| Name | File name, URL, or text source name |
| Type | Source type (Text, Folder, etc.) |
| Updated | Date of last update |
Connecting Sources to an Employee

Best Practices
- Clear file names. “Price list 2026 March.pdf” is immediately understandable. “Document_final_v3(2).pdf” is not.
- Don’t upload everything. Each extra source is context the employee searches through. More irrelevant documents mean a higher chance of inaccurate answers.
- Structure your documents. Use headings, lists, and tables. A long unstructured document is better split into several thematic files.
- Test after uploading. Open a test chat and ask questions about the uploaded information.
- Keep data current. Outdated data means incorrect answers. The employee does not know the information is stale.
