What the Data for This Category Looks Like
Marketing and parameter data for kitchen and bath appliances primarily comes from three sources: official brand product databases, e-commerce platform product detail pages, and product instruction PDF files. Some marketing materials originate from co-branded activities between financial institutions and home appliance brands, including supplementary content such as activity rules and gift redemption conditions. Updates occur irregularly, aligned with new product launches, energy efficiency standard adjustments, and the launch of co-branded activities.
Each document typically combines structured parameter tables and unstructured marketing copy. Fields include product model, rated power (W), installation dimensions (mm), applicable gas source (for gas models), energy efficiency rating, and more. Units follow international standard measurement conventions. Some documents also include additional content such as installation steps and after-sales notes.
What Constraints These Characteristics Impose on Tool Calling and Plugins
The above data characteristics impose three constraints on the tool calling and plugin workflow. First, the mixed document structure of structured parameters and unstructured marketing content requires tool calling to support both structured field extraction and non-contextual recall, to avoid marketing copy interfering with parameter matching. Second, the irregular update schedule and temporary co-branded activity materials require plugins to support incremental knowledge base synchronization, reducing resource consumption from full repeated parsing. Third, the multiple document source formats (PDF, web pages, e-commerce detail pages, activity rule documents) require parsing plugins to adapt to multi-format input, and allow adjustment of segmentation and extraction rules for different formats.
Additionally, marketing content in financial scenarios needs to be combined with activity rules, so tool calling must link structured activity-related data with kitchen and bath appliance parameter data for coordinated use.
How to Set Configurations
| Configuration Item | Recommended Value | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
maxContext | 800–1200 characters | The parameter and core selling point text for a single kitchen and bath appliance product mostly falls within this range, covering all contextual information required for a single round of calls |
PARSE_FILE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS | 300 seconds | Multi-page PDF product manuals include installation steps and parameter tables, with longer parsing time than general documents |
RECALL_TOP_K | Top 6 entries | In kitchen and bath appliance purchasing scenarios, users typically compare 3 to 5 products of the same price range; recalling 6 entries covers all required parameters and selling points for comparison |
UPLOAD_FILE_MAX_SIZE | 1000 MB | Official brand product manuals often include high-resolution product images and multi-page content, requiring support for larger file uploads |
rag_strategy | hybrid | Need to recall structured parameter fields, unstructured marketing copy, and financial activity rules simultaneously, adapting to two scenarios: co-branded marketing content generation and parameter display in financial scenarios |
WORKFLOW_API_TIMEOUT | 600 seconds | Workflows include multi-step knowledge base calls and file processing, resulting in longer execution time |
The parameter values provided on this page are common recommended starting points for configuration. Actual values are affected by material format, data volume, and business rules. Specific issues require individual analysis, and it is recommended to test on your own samples before finalizing settings.
Three Common Mistakes
- The symptom is an error message "Knowledge base does not exist" when a global knowledge base variable is passed to an API calling workflow. The cause is failing to bind the scope of the global variable in the workflow configuration, or the passed knowledge base ID format does not meet platform verification rules.
- The symptom is the "applicable gas source" field for gas models missing from tool call results. The cause is failing to enable targeted extraction of structured fields in the parsing configuration, or the field not being correctly identified in the original document.
- The symptom is insufficient associated relationships returned after graphRAG tool calls. The cause is failing to adjust the threshold parameter for association extraction, or failing to configure association rules for core fields such as product model and energy efficiency rating for kitchen and bath appliances.
How to Confirm Proper Configuration
- Upload the PDF product manual for a single kitchen and bath appliance product, and check the parsed structured field list to confirm it includes preset fields such as model, power, and installation dimensions.
- Initiate an API calling workflow, pass a test knowledge base ID, and check if the returned results include content fragments from the corresponding knowledge base.
- Adjust
RECALL_TOP_Kto 4, initiate a parameter recall test, and confirm the number of returned results matches the set value. - Check the tool call logs to confirm that
PARSE_FILE_TIMEOUT_SECONDSdoes not trigger a timeout error, and the file parsing process completes normally.
