Customer Technical Support and Pre-sales Q&A for Customer Data Import Migration: Knowledge Base Retrieval and Recall

This category of data primarily comes from customers’ legacy systems, CSV or Excel templates, database exports, and product import logs. Daily

What the data for this category looks like

This category of data primarily comes from customers’ legacy systems, CSV or Excel templates, database exports, and product import logs. Daily associated documents include data templates, migration plans, field mapping tables, and migration verification reports. Data update cycles are per individual customer or irregular. Core content revolves around business data identifiers, field mapping relationships, data validation rules, and import result statuses. There are no unified fixed units; corresponding fields and units must be matched based on the customer’s specific business scenarios.

The data sources for this category are scattered and have diverse formats, including both structured field mapping tables and CSV templates, as well as unstructured migration plans and verification reports. This requires the retrieval link to support recall of multi-format data. Data updates are per customer and have no fixed cycle, so support for on-demand synchronization of the latest migration configurations and log documents is needed. Core business documents focus on field mapping and data validation, requiring retrieval to accurately match professional terms such as field names and mapping rules, and avoid recalling irrelevant content. At the same time, error messages in import logs must be quickly linked to corresponding solution documents, so recall accuracy needs to be optimized to meet the timeliness requirements of technical support scenarios.

How to set configurations

The following configurations are based on FastGPT v4.17.0.

Configuration ItemRecommended SettingRationale
similarity0.75–0.85Matches professional terms such as field mappings and migration rules, balancing recall coverage and accuracy
limitTop 6 entriesCovers common migration issue scenarios, avoiding returning excessive redundant content
searchModeSemantic searchAdapts to mixed retrieval needs for semi-structured migration plans and structured field mapping tables
usingReRankEnabled, re-rank top 3 entriesImproves the sorting priority of core error reports and field mapping-related content
datasetSearchUsingExtensionQueryEnabledSupplements associated extended content such as migration logs and verification reports, covering extended questions in pre-sales Q&A
collectionIdsBind a dedicated collection for migration-related documentsIsolates knowledge base content from other categories to avoid recalling irrelevant documents

Three common misconfigurations

  • A "Request failed with status code 400" error occurs because the collectionIds dedicated migration document collection is not configured, and cross-source data format verification exceptions are triggered during retrieval.
  • Knowledge base retrieval fails to match migration-related questions associated with titles, because datasetSearchUsingExtensionQuery is not enabled, and document titles are not included in the retrieval scope.
  • An exception of automatic Bearer token supplementation occurs when calling the API knowledge base, because the authorization parameter logic in the retrieval configuration is not adjusted, causing the request header format to not meet the requirements of the target system.

How to verify correct configuration

  • Manually input keywords related to field mapping, and verify that returned results include dedicated documents for this category.
  • Simulate an import scenario to trigger error keywords, and confirm that corresponding migration verification or troubleshooting documents are recalled.
  • Confirm that the collectionIds configuration only binds migration-related knowledge base collections, eliminating interference from documents of other categories.
  • Verify that after usingReRank is enabled, content related to core errors is sorted ahead of redundant content.
