A Agent is essentially an AI-powered agent that automates tasks by connecting different building blocks, called Axons. Agents can handle all sorts of data—whether it’s documents, raw data, or emails—by linking various Axons together. These agents can run in the background, automating processes without needing constant supervision.
Agents allow you to automate document processing, manage data workflows, and integrate with different systems, all within a customizable framework.
Axons are the building blocks of a Agent, representing each step the Agent takes in a workflow. By connecting Axons together, you define what tasks the Agent will perform.
• Trigger Axons: Bring data into the Agent from various sources (e.g., files, emails, databases).
• Task Axons: Analyze, process, manipulate the data, modify or reformat the processed data (e.g., merging files, renaming them) collected by Trigger Axons.
• Action Axons: Send the final, processed data to its destination, whether it’s a database or cloud storage.
Some Axons have a manual review switch, which allows you to review and edit the results of that step in real time. If enabled, the Agent will pause at that point, letting you check or modify the data before the Agent continues with the next steps.
The Monitor Agents is your control center for monitoring and managing Agents as they run. It provides real-time updates on the data being processed and gives you control over the workflow.
With Agent Explorer, you can:
• View real-time updates: See exactly how your Agent is processing data at each step.
• Pause or resume the workflow: If there’s a manual review, or you want to pause the Agent, you can do so and then resume when ready.
• Retry failed tasks: If something goes wrong, you can quickly retry any failed steps.
• Download processed files: Access and download the files that have been processed by the Agent.
• Fetch information: Pull insights from the processed data.
Monitor Agents gives you full control over your running Agents, allowing you to ensure that everything is working smoothly.
The Knowledge Base is where all the data processed by your Agent is stored and organized, allowing you to interact with it in a powerful way. If enabled, the Knowledge Base lets you chat with and search through the data handled by the Agent.
• Source Chat: You can chat with any type of data source, not just documents. Whether it’s a raw data file, or a document, you can ask questions and retrieve information directly from that source.
