Web Crawling

Crawl websites to automatically add web content to your knowledge base.

Overview

Instead of uploading files manually, you can crawl a website and automatically import its content into your assistant's knowledge base.

How to Crawl a Website

  1. Go to Knowledge Base tab
  2. Click Add from URL (or Web Crawl)
  3. Enter the website URL (e.g., https://example.com/docs)
  4. Configure crawl settings:
    • Max pages — Limit the number of pages to crawl
    • Depth — How many link levels deep to follow
  5. Click Start Crawl
  6. Pages are converted to text and processed like uploaded documents

Web crawling is powered by Firecrawl — an AI-optimized web scraping service that extracts clean, readable content from any website.
