What the data for this category looks like
Data for this category primarily originates from customer HR systems, identity directories, product backends, and audit logs. Daily produced documents include permission matrices, organizational structure tables, role configuration records, and permission change tickets. Data updates occur per ticket or on an irregular schedule. Data fields include department hierarchy codes, role permission scopes, effective and expiration times, change operators, and additional relevant fields. There are no unified fixed unit standards. Field formats are matched only according to configuration scenarios.
Constraints imposed by these characteristics on the citation sources and traceability link
Data for this category comes from dispersed sources and has no fixed update cycle. Citation and traceability require clear association of each data’s generating system and update timestamp. Documents such as permission matrices and organizational structure tables have complex structures. Citations must match the corresponding relationship between hierarchies and roles to avoid cross-hierarchy unauthorized citation. Audit logs serve as core traceability data, requiring separate marking of operation sources and cannot be directly mixed with other business data. Additionally, data fields have no unified units. Format verification must be completed before citation to ensure alignment with current configured permission rules.
How to set configurations
| Configuration Item | Recommended Approach | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
quoteMaxToken | 1000–1500 token | Adapts to the field length of permission-related data, avoiding truncation of critical permission scope information |
responseData | Return only permission-associated field sets | Filters irrelevant data and simplifies traceability verification logic |
detail | Enable full traceability mode | Retains core traceability fields such as change operator and effective time |
| Citation data cache duration | 600–1800 seconds | Adapts to irregular data update schedules, balancing query efficiency and data freshness |
| Audit log storage duration | 30–90 days | Meets conventional audit and traceability query requirements |
All above configuration items are compatible with FastGPT v4.17.0.
Three common configuration errors
- When invoking a knowledge base search node, passed variables fail to match the target knowledge base, returning empty results. The cause is failure to verify the permission binding relationship between variables and the current organizational structure during citation. Only the knowledge base ID was passed without associating permission scopes.
- The citation list returned by the chat interface does not include permission-associated information, making traceability verification impossible. The cause is failure to enable the full traceability mode of the
detailparameter, which filtered critical permission fields such as roles and departments. - After a permission change ticket is submitted, cited outdated organizational structure data is not updated, resulting in unauthorized access errors. The cause is that the citation data cache duration was set too long, failing to pull the latest permission configuration data in a timely manner.
How to confirm configurations are correctly applied
- Initiate a knowledge base search request with permission variables. Check if returned results only include knowledge base content accessible to the current role.
- Call the chat interface with the
detailparameter enabled. Check if the returned citation list includes traceability fields such as change operator and effective time. - Submit a permission change operation. Wait for the preset cache duration, then initiate a query to confirm that cited data has synchronized the latest configuration content.
- View audit logs to confirm that each citation operation is bound to the corresponding permission change record and operator information.
