Manage the knowledge bases in your active environment.

​
Getting knowledge base status

To get the status of an existing knowledge base, run the following command. For built-in knowledge bases, this will include a Ready property, which denotes whether your index has been successfully created and the knowledge base is ready to use:
BASH
orchestrate knowledge-bases status --name my-base-name

​
Updating knowledge base

To update a knowledge base, run the import command again using the same knowledge base name as the knowledge base you want to update.
BASH
orchestrate knowledge-bases import -f <path to knowledge base file that you want to update>

​
Removing knowledge base

To remove an existing knowledge base, run the following command:
BASH
orchestrate knowledge-bases remove --name my-base-name

​
Listing knowledge bases

To list all knowledge bases, run the following command:
BASH
orchestrate knowledge-bases list

​
Exporting knowledge bases

Use the orchestrate knowledge-bases export command to export a knowledge base specification file YAML configuration from your active environment.
BASH
orchestrate knowledge-bases export -n <knowledge-base-name> -o <output-path>.yaml
Note:Documents cannot be exported as they are not stored in a non-indexed state by the watsonx Orchestrate platform.
