The orchestrate knowledge-bases import command enables you to import the knowledge bases that you create in your active environment. To import a knowledge base, run this command in the ADK CLI and set the path of the file that contains your knowledge base configurations.
BASH
orchestrate knowledge-bases import -f <knowledge-base-file-path>

​
Connecting to external knowledge base providers

In some cases, to connect to external knowledge base providers, such as Milvus or ElasticSearch, you must provide credentials to authenticate to these services. To do that, you must create a new connection and provide the connection in the command by using the --app-id or -a argument. 
orchestrate connections add -a my_credentials
orchestrate connections configure -a my_credentials --env draft --kind basic --type team
orchestrate connections set-credentials -a my_credentials --env draft -u <username> -p <password>
orchestrate knowledge-bases import -f <my_knowledge_base_file> -a my_credentials
If your service requires a different type of authentication, see Setting connection credentials for more authentication options.
