# Manage & Reprocess Sources

> Track source status, reprocess after changes, and remove content your agent should forget.

Once you've added content, the Knowledge Base list is where you keep it healthy —
checking what's indexed, retraining when content changes, and removing what's out
of date.

## Prerequisites

* An agent with at least one source (see [Knowledge Base Overview](/knowledge-base/overview)).

## Review your sources

Open **Expertise → Knowledge Base** to see every source in a table with its
**Name**, **Type**, **Characters**, **Created/Updated** date, **Status**, and an
**Actions** menu. Use the search box and the **Status** / **Sort by** filters to
find what you need.

| Status          | What to do                                               |
| --------------- | -------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Unprocessed** | Just added — queued for indexing.                        |
| **Processing**  | Being read, chunked, and indexed. Wait for it to finish. |
| **Completed**   | Live — nothing to do.                                    |
| **Failed**      | Reprocess, or remove and re-add the source.              |

Each row's **Actions** menu (the **⋯** button) has **View Details**, **Reprocess**,
and **Delete**.

## Reprocess a source

Reprocess when the underlying content has changed (an updated document, an edited
web page) or when a source **Failed** and you want to try again.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Find the source">
    Locate it in the Knowledge Base list.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose Reprocess">
    Open the row's **Actions** menu (**⋯**) and select **Reprocess**. It re-reads,
    re-chunks, and re-indexes the content.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Wait for Completed">
    The status returns to **Processing**, then **Completed** when done.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Reprocessing re-indexes the source so the agent learns the latest version. For a
  website or YouTube source, it re-fetches the current content at the URL.
</Note>

## Update a Q\&A

For [Q\&A sources](/knowledge-base/qa), you can edit the question or answer
directly from the list — the pair is re-indexed automatically after you save.

## Remove a source

Open the row's **Actions** menu (**⋯**) and select **Delete** to make the agent
forget a source. This removes the content from the agent's index, so it will no
longer appear in answers. Use **View Details** in the same menu to inspect a
source before acting on it.

<Warning>
  Removing a source is permanent for that agent's index. If you might need the
  content again, keep the original file or URL handy so you can re-add it.
</Warning>

## Tips

<Tip>
  * After a big content update, reprocess the affected sources and re-test in the
    [Sandbox](/testing/sandbox) before customers see the change.
  * Periodically prune stale sources — outdated content is the most common cause of
    wrong answers.
</Tip>
