This page covers policy and regulatory basis Q&A for public data catalog and opening, focused on tool calling and plugin capabilities.
What Data in This Category Looks Like
This category of data originates from local public data opening platforms, integrated big data platforms, departmental business databases, and electronic certificate repositories. The update frequency is once per month. Daily management documents include public data resource catalogs, data opening lists, data item descriptions, desensitization rules, interface documents, and update frequency descriptions. Data fields cover data owning departments, opening scope, desensitization requirements, calling interface addresses, update cycles, and authorization conditions. The core focus is the opening attributes and calling boundaries of data assets. No additional custom units are used.
Constraints for Tool Calling and Plugins
Monthly updated data sources require tool calling workflows to include a regular synchronization mechanism. This ensures retrieved catalogs and opening data remain consistent. Multi-source data access requires plugins to support cross-platform data verification. Plugins must match the corresponding relationship between data owning departments and opening interfaces. Desensitization rules and authorization conditions must be required parameters for tool calling. This automatically filters requests that do not meet opening permissions. Structured interface documents require plugins to preset standardized request formats. This prevents calling failures caused by incorrect parameter formats. For policy Q&A scenarios, tools must automatically associate policy basis corresponding to data items. This ensures response compliance.
Configuration Settings
| Configuration Item | Recommended Value | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
toolChoice | auto | Adapts to automatic tool triggering logic in policy Q&A scenarios, no manual tool specification required |
| Tool calling timeout | 600 seconds | Public data interfaces require multi-source data verification and desensitization rule matching, reserve sufficient response time |
| Context window length | 8000–12000 token | Must carry complete content of policy clauses, data catalog entries, and interface documents to ensure coherent Q&A logic |
functionCall | Enabled | Forces the model to generate standardized tool calling requests, ensuring accurate parameter transmission |
| Data synchronization frequency | Once per month | Matches the official update rhythm of data in this category, ensuring retrieved catalogs and opening data remain consistent |
| Tool calling retry times | 2–3 times | Addresses temporary current limiting or interface jitter on public data platforms, reducing single call failure probability |
Three Common Configuration Mistakes
- A
{"code":514,"statusText":"unAuthApiKey"}error is returned during tool calling. The cause is failure to correctly configure the API key for the public data opening platform, or the key permissions do not cover the calling scope of the target data catalog. - Global variables are not updated after tool calling, and Q&A results do not associate with the latest data catalog. The cause is failure to enable the variable synchronization switch after tool calling, or the variable update logic is not bound to the return fields of the data catalog.
- Calling logs show data acquisition exceptions, and the number of returned results does not match expectations. The cause is failure to configure the data synchronization frequency, or the synchronization task does not update the local data cache at the monthly rhythm, leading to calls to expired catalog entries.
How to Verify Proper Configuration
For FastGPT v4.17.0 or later, review the tool configuration page to confirm toolChoice is set to auto and functionCall is enabled. Initiate a test call by inputting a question related to public data opening policies. Verify whether the tool automatically triggers and returns corresponding catalog entries and policy basis. Check tool calling logs to confirm the timeout is set to 600 seconds, retry times are 2–3 times, and no parameter format errors exist. Trigger the data synchronization task, then compare local cached catalog entries against the latest updated content on the official platform to confirm consistency.
The values listed above are common starting points. They should be evaluated against samples specific to the actual deployment.
Question material comes from public community discussions. Configuration values are common starting points and should be measured against your own samples. Verified on 2026-09-28.
