Managing files
This page covers the day-to-day operations in the Knowledge Base: adding content, controlling which projects can access it, organizing with tags, and removing files when they're no longer needed.
Uploading files
The upload zone at the top of the Knowledge Base page accepts files by drag-and-drop or by clicking to open a file picker.
While a file uploads, a progress bar tracks how far along it is. Multiple files can be uploading at the same time. Each one shows independently:
- A progress bar while transferring
- A checkmark when upload and indexing complete
- An error message if something went wrong
The file appears in the table once it's fully processed and indexed.
Importing a URL
To add a web page instead of a file, click Import URL in the top-right corner. A dialog appears with a single URL field. Paste the address of any publicly accessible page and confirm.
Anter fetches the page content, strips it to text, and queues it for indexing. A confirmation toast reads URL imported and queued for indexing — the entry appears in the file list once processing completes.
Assigning files to projects
By default, a newly uploaded file is not assigned to any project. To make it available to agents, open the file's assignment dialog by clicking the edit control on the file row.
The dialog shows a list of all projects in your organization. Check the projects that should have access to this file and save. The file is then re-indexed and available for agents in those projects on the next run.
You can update project assignments at any time. Removing a project from the assignment revokes agent access — the file remains in the Knowledge Base but is no longer passed to that project's agents.
Tagging files
Tags are free-form labels you can attach to files to make them easier to organize and find. Open the same assignment dialog to add or remove tags alongside project assignments.
Tags are for your own organization — they don't affect how agents search or retrieve content.
Downloading files
Every file in the Knowledge Base has an Open action that downloads it through an authenticated proxy. The download goes through Anter's servers rather than a direct link, so the file remains private — no unauthenticated URL is exposed.
Deleting files
Click the delete icon on any file row to remove it. The file is removed from the list immediately. If the deletion fails, the file reappears in the list with an error message.
Deletion removes agent access immediately
When you delete a file, agents in any project it was assigned to lose access to that content on their next run. There is no soft-delete or recovery — make sure you want to remove it before confirming.
