Learn how to create and manage Data Channels, linking your data sources to specific business objectives for use by AI Assistants in RAG applications and more.
Data Channels in Kosmoy Studio are a crucial element for enabling your AI Assistants to effectively utilize your data, especially in Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) applications. They go beyond simply providing access; they create a meaningful association between a data source and a specific business objective. This allows your AI Assistants to understand the purpose of the data and use it appropriately.
The process of creating a Data Channel involves selecting the data source and defining its intended use. The specific steps may vary depending on the Data Channel type. Here’s a general outline:
Navigate to Data Channels: From the Kosmoy Studio home page, click on the “Data Management” menu in the left-hand navigation bar, then select “Data Channels”.
Add a New Data Channel: Click the ”+ ADD” button located in the upper right corner of the Data Channels section.
Select Data Channel Type: Choose the appropriate Data Channel type based on your data source.
Configure Data Channel: Follow the specific configuration steps for the selected Data Channel type, as detailed in the subsections below.
Name and Describe the Data Channel: Give your Data Channel a unique name and an optional description that reflects its purpose. The description provided here is what the AI Assistant will see and use to determine the relevance of the data.
Review and Create: Review the Data Channel configuration and click “Create” to create the Data Channel.
Follow these steps to create a Vector Data Channel:
The Data Channels section displays each created channel as a card. Each card shows:
You cannot edit or delete a Data Channel if it is currently referenced by other entities within Kosmoy Studio. This includes being used in:
Before attempting to edit or delete a Data Channel, ensure it is not actively used in any of these areas.
You can update the name, description and usage purpose of a registered Data Channel, provided it is not currently referenced by any other component.
You can remove a registered Data Channel if it’s no longer needed. However, you cannot delete a Data Channel that is currently referenced by any other component.
If you attempt to delete a Data Channel that is currently in use, a modal will appear, preventing the deletion and explaining that the Data Channel is in use.
Warning: Deleting a Data Channel is a permanent action and cannot be undone. Ensure that the Data Channel is not being referenced by any other component before proceeding.
Data Channels are primarily used when configuring AI Assistants. When building an Assistant, you can connect it to one or more Data Channels, giving the Assistant the ability to access and utilize the data within those channels to fulfill its designated purpose. The AI Assistant will use the Data Channel’s description to understand the context and appropriate use of the data, particularly in RAG applications.
