Data Sources

Data Sources are the first step to Griptape's RAG pipeline. They allow you to bring your own data to ingest and transform. You can then make one or more Data Source available to your AI applications via Knowledge Bases

Create a Data Source

You can create a Data Source in the Griptape Cloud console by specifying the required configuration for your chosen Data Source in the cloud console.

Web Page

You can scrape and ingest a single, public web page by providing a URL. If you wish to scrape multiple pages, you must create multiple Data Sources. However, you can then add all of the pages to the same Knowledge Base if you wish to access all the pages together.

Amazon S3

You can connect Amazon S3 buckets, objects, and prefixes by providing their S3 URI(s). Supported file extensions include .pdf, .csv, .md, and most text-based file types.

Google Drive

You can ingest documents and spreadsheets stored in a Google Drive account. We support all standard file formats such as text, markdown, spreadsheets, and presentations.

Confluence

You can connect to your personal or company Confluence by providing a URL, Atlassian API Token, and the email address for the token holder's account. Each Confluence Data Source can be limited to a single Space in Confluence by specifying the specific URL for that Space.

Structure (Experimental)

You can specify a Structure to run as a Data Source as long as your Structure returns a TextArtifact or ListArtifact from the Griptape Framework. You can use this as a way to build custom Data Sources.

Other Data Source Types

If you do not see a Data Source configuration you'd wish to use, you can submit a request via Discord or hello@griptape.ai.

Adding Structure as Transform to Data Source (Experimental)

When creating any Data Source, you can optionally specify a Structure to run as a transform step of your data ingetstion before loading into the vector store. Ensure the Structure you select to run as a transform is configured to take in a ListArtifact as its first positional argument and returns either a TextArtifact or ListArtifact.

Take a look at the Find and Replace Sample Structure for more details on how to implement this for your own Structure.
