Knowledge base

This documents the v1 product. It is kept for integrations already running on it. If you are building something new, start with the Quickstart.

Upload documents to a workspace and the assistant can search them mid-call to answer policy and product questions.

The knowledge base is a v1 capability. v2 has no RAG yet.

Limits: 100 MB per file, 10 MB per chunk, 1,000 chunks maximum. Supported types: application/pdf, text/plain, text/markdown, and .docx (application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document).

Upload a document

Three steps: start a session, push the chunks, complete.

Start a session

POST /v1/knowledge-base/upload/start

curl -X POST https://api.voice-agents.miraiminds.co/v1/knowledge-base/upload/start \
  -H "x-public-key: pk_1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef" \
  -H "x-private-key: sk_1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef" \
  -H "workspace: 6690a1b2c3d4e5f600000002" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "fileName": "product-catalog.pdf",
    "totalChunks": 1,
    "fileSize": 524288,
    "mimeType": "application/pdf"
  }'

201 Created

{ "status_code": 201, "message": "Upload session created.", "data": { "sessionId": "sess_abc123xyz" } }

totalChunks must match what you actually send. Target 10 MB per chunk.400 if the file exceeds 100 MB or the MIME type is unsupported.

Upload each chunk

POST /v1/knowledge-base/upload/chunk/{sessionId}

multipart/form-data with chunk (binary) and chunkIndex (zero-based).

curl -X POST https://api.voice-agents.miraiminds.co/v1/knowledge-base/upload/chunk/sess_abc123xyz \
  -H "x-public-key: pk_1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef" \
  -H "x-private-key: sk_1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef" \
  -H "workspace: 6690a1b2c3d4e5f600000002" \
  -F "chunk=@part-0.bin" \
  -F "chunkIndex=0"

400 for a missing chunk, a negative index, or a chunk over 10 MB. 404 if the session does not exist.

Complete

POST /v1/knowledge-base/upload/complete/{sessionId}

curl -X POST https://api.voice-agents.miraiminds.co/v1/knowledge-base/upload/complete/sess_abc123xyz \
  -H "x-public-key: pk_1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef" \
  -H "x-private-key: sk_1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef" \
  -H "workspace: 6690a1b2c3d4e5f600000002"

200 OK

{
  "message": "Upload completed. Processing has started in the background.",
  "sessionId": "sess_abc123xyz",
  "knowledgeBaseId": "6701a1b2c3d4e5f600000050",
  "knowledgeBaseStatus": "processing"
}

400 if the session is not in the uploading state or is already linked to a knowledge base.

Poll until ready

Indexing runs in the background. Poll GET /v1/knowledge-base/files/{knowledgeBaseId} until status is ready.

List files

`status`	Meaning
`processing`	Indexing; read `processingPercentage` (0–100).
`ready`	Searchable.
`failed`	Indexing failed. Re-upload.

Get one file

GET /v1/knowledge-base/files/{knowledgeBaseId}

Same object under data. This is the endpoint you poll after complete.

Delete a collection

DELETE /v1/knowledge-base/collection/{collectionName}

Deletes by collectionName, not by file _id.

curl -X DELETE https://api.voice-agents.miraiminds.co/v1/knowledge-base/collection/rag_acme_product_catalog_v1 \
  -H "x-public-key: pk_1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef" \
  -H "x-private-key: sk_1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef" \
  -H "workspace: 6690a1b2c3d4e5f600000002"

Status	Cause
`404`	No such collection in this workspace
`409`	The collection is in use by an assistant

Detach it from the assistant first.

Writing documents that retrieve well

Short, self-contained sections. Retrieval returns fragments, not documents. A fragment that only makes sense with the page around it is a fragment the assistant will read out wrong.
Put the question in the text. A heading of “Return policy” retrieves worse than a line reading “How do I return an item?”.
One fact per paragraph. Tables and multi-column PDFs chunk badly — flatten them to prose before uploading.
Say numbers explicitly. “Returns accepted within 7 days of delivery” is retrievable; “within the standard window” is not.
