Technical Documentation and API Q&A for CDN and Edge Acceleration Configuration: Document Parsing and Chunking

This category of data primarily comes from CDN consoles, DNS resolution records, public network access logs, and edge node monitoring alerts. Daily

What the data for this category looks like

This category of data primarily comes from CDN consoles, DNS resolution records, public network access logs, and edge node monitoring alerts. Daily produced documents include domain name access forms, cache rule configuration tables, refresh and preheating operation records, and fault analysis reports. Covered fields include domain names, cache rule priority, node IP addresses, request peak bandwidth, and more. Update frequency is daily or real-time as configuration changes are made.

What constraints do these characteristics impose on document parsing and chunking

Document structures for this category vary widely. There are structured domain name access forms and cache rule tables, as well as unstructured fault analysis reports. This requires document parsing and chunking to adapt to multi-format inputs. Data updates occur at high frequency and trigger in real time when configurations change, so the parsing process must support rapid response to updated documents. Additionally, data sources include structured files exported from consoles and semi-structured text from access logs. Chunking logic must balance field extraction and natural semantic segmentation to avoid breaking configuration associations. A single document may also contain hundreds of node monitoring records, so parsing boundaries for large-volume files must be supported.

How to set configurations

Configuration ItemRecommended ApproachRationale
chunkSize800–1200 charactersAdapts to the semantic length of cache rules and fault descriptions in CDN documents, avoiding chunking that breaks configuration associations
chunkSplitterSplit by paragraph + titleAdapts to structured cache rule tables and unstructured fault reports, preserving document hierarchy logic
customPdfParseEnabledAdapts to PDF format configuration reports and fault analysis documents exported from CDN consoles, improving parsing accuracy
UPLOAD_FILE_MAX_SIZE1000 MBCovers large-volume document scenarios such as multi-page access log PDFs and batch domain name access forms
PARSE_FILE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS600 secondsPrevents parsing timeouts for large-volume documents, matching the time expectations for CDN log batch processing
chunkSettingModeManual modeAllows separate adjustment of chunking parameters for structured configuration tables and unstructured reports, adapting to multiple document types

Three common mistakes

  • JSON parsing errors occur when calling the parsing API. The cause is incorrect configuration of the customPdfParse parameter, which prevents non-standard PDF format files exported from CDN consoles from being parsed normally.
  • The file parsing function fails in locally deployed FastGPT v4.17.0. The cause is failure to enable the dependency service corresponding to customPdfParse, or the UPLOAD_FILE_MAX_SIZE setting being smaller than the size of the document to be parsed.
  • Timeout errors occur when parsing multi-page CDN access logs. The cause is PARSE_FILE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS being set too low, failing to match the parsing time required for large-volume documents, and no queuing mechanism being configured to handle concurrent parsing requests.

How to verify a successful configuration

  • Upload a typical CDN cache rule PDF document, check the parsed chunking results, and confirm that chunks do not damage the integrity of core fields such as cache priority and domain names.
  • Adjust PARSE_FILE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS, then upload a simulated access log file exceeding the preset threshold, and verify that the parsing process does not experience timeout interruptions.
  • Upload multiple CDN documents of different formats in batch, confirm that the UPLOAD_FILE_MAX_SIZE limit does not trigger upload blocking, and that parsing results have no format loss.
  • View parsing logs in the FastGPT backend, confirm that the splitting logic of chunkSplitter matches the title and paragraph structure of the document, with no abnormal chunking.
