How to Use Knowledge Space?
Concept
Personal Space and Knowledge Space
Personal Space is a user-exclusive file space where only the user can access and operate the files. Documents in the personal space can also serve as a knowledge source for Copilot Q&A after being indexed.
Knowledge Space is a file space for public access or team collaboration, such as company regulations, customer information, and project documents. Access to the knowledge space requires authorization from the space owner.
File Indexing
Each file uploaded to the Personal Space or Knowledge Space will automatically trigger the file indexing preprocessing program. The system can only use the index to retrieve file content after the file indexing is completed.
Some spaces or files have the file indexing feature turned off, meaning these files will not automatically trigger the file indexing preprocessing program and will not provide knowledge to Copilot.

AI Tools
AI Translation
The AI translation feature can translate one or more documents into the target language version, and the system will try to maintain the document format.
- Glossary, used for mapping specific domain terms.
The translated document will be saved to the user's Personal Space. The system will notify the user via message once the extraction is complete.

AI Extract QnA
AI can convert document content into multiple QnA pairs, which can be imported into the corresponding knowledge space to improve Copilot's Q&A quality.
- The extracted QnA will be saved as an Excel file in the user's Personal Space.
- The system will notify the user via message once the extraction is complete.
- Preprocessing of the document must be completed before extraction can proceed.

AI Copywriting
AI copywriting provides a series of templates to help users quickly complete some daily copywriting tasks.
For example, the customer service team can generate FAQs for some user questions.
AI Document Generation
When we lack inspiration while writing documents, we can try using the AI document generation feature. By simply entering the document topic, it can automatically generate a complete document from the outline to each chapter's content, helping us easily complete the manuscript.
File Properties
Open File Properties
There are two ways to open file properties:
- In the knowledge space, select any file and click File Properties.
- In the file preview interface, click File Properties at the top right corner.
General
You can view basic file information, edit file descriptions, tags, metadata, and understand the task execution status related to the file.
- Basic Information: View basic information such as file name and creation date.
- File Description: Helps others understand the document's purpose. The file description is also used for document search. Therefore, a well-edited file description can help the document be found more easily.
- Tags: File classification.
- Metadata: Used to supplement document information and improve retrieval accuracy. Metadata definitions need to be completed in Metadata Management first.
- Task Progress: View the execution status of file preview and file indexing related tasks. If a task fails, you can view detailed error information and retry here.
File Settings
- Inherit Space Settings: When inheriting space settings, the following switches follow the space. When turned off, the file follows its own settings.
- File Preview: Whether to enable file preview. When turned off, the file's online preview content cannot be seen in the file preview interface, and the file can only be downloaded locally for viewing.
- File Indexing: Whether to allow the file to be indexed. When turned off, the file will not automatically generate an index and cannot be retrieved by the system.
- Enable Document OCR: Use AI to extract content from images or PDF scans (this option only appears for PDF files).
- Segmentation Mode: Determines the segmentation strategy during the file indexing process.
- Default: Segmentation based on stop words, such as periods and commas.
- Fine: Further segmentation into smaller paragraphs based on sentences within the stop word segments, improving the hit rate for most questions.
- Custom: Segmentation based on a fixed length, such as 100 characters per segment.
- Document Summary Generation: When enabled, AI will accumulate summaries of each segment to get the entire document's summary and update it to the document description. This can improve the chances of the document being retrieved and provide pre-generated descriptions to answer summary questions in specific document Q&A scenarios (e.g., What is this document about?).
- Image Summary Generation: When enabled, AI will interpret the content of images and update the image description to make the image retrievable (this option only appears for image files).
Segment Preview
After the file indexing preprocessing is completed, you can view the segmentation results here. Users with file editing permissions can also temporarily edit and adjust the file segments here to change the Copilot Q&A results.
Note that if the file indexing is redone, the manually edited content will be overwritten.
QnA Maintenance
Organizing and maintaining some common Q&A in the QnA section can help improve Copilot's answer quality.

Question 1: How to manage documents in the knowledge base space?
"Answer": Enter the answer, which can include text, images, and videos. "Metadata": Not used yet, can be left blank.
- Click "Save" to successfully add the QnA record.
- The "Answer" contains rich text style tags, and it is recommended to limit it to within 2000 characters, which will help AI responses.
- To insert a video, use embedded code, such as
<iframe src="//player.bilibili.com/player.html?aid=535563667&bvid=BV1jM411S74q&cid=1322473540&p=1" scrolling="no" border="0" frameborder="no" framespacing="0" allowfullscreen="true"> </iframe>
