Rate limit tier: general, 600 requests/min. See Rate limits.
Reads one document’s or navigation page’s text from a workflow’s knowledge corpus. Find
path first with List or Search. For an answer with citations instead of raw text, use Ask.
Content cap
content is capped; truncated is true when the document’s text was cut off at the cap. There is no pagination for a single document’s content — a long document returns its opening text with truncated: true.
path is 1 to 1024 characters.
Requires a knowledge base
Same requirement asask: the workflow needs a knowledge node, or this returns 409 KNOWLEDGE_NOT_ENABLED. 409 KNOWLEDGE_NOT_READY means no usable snapshot has ever been published. Unlike ask, reading is never billed, so 402 cannot occur here.
Errors
| Status | error_code | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
400 | VALIDATION_ERROR | path was empty or over 1024 characters. |
404 | NOT_FOUND | Unknown workflow, one belonging to another organization, or path names no document or navigation page in this corpus. |
409 | KNOWLEDGE_NOT_ENABLED | The workflow has no Knowledge node. Do not retry: add the node first. |
409 | KNOWLEDGE_NOT_READY | No knowledge snapshot has ever been published for this workflow. Wait if indexing is in progress. |
409 | KNOWLEDGE_UNSUPPORTED_SNAPSHOT_FORMAT | The published snapshot is in a format this deployment no longer reads. Permanent until an operator republishes it. |
504 | GATEWAY_TIMEOUT | The read exceeded the agent’s own time ceiling. Retry. |
