This **Initial Scrawl** automatically scans all available pages and adds them to your knowledge base in bulk. No manual action is required during this step. ### Manually Adding Pages After the initial scan, you can manually add pages to your knowledge base: Go to **Zipchat > AI Training > Knowledge Base > Add a New Source**. Here, you can: * **Add a Single Page** – Enter the URL of a page you want to include. * **Add Multiple Pages** – Enter the **generic site URL** (without folders or subpages). Zipchat will scan all pages that haven’t been previously added and include them in your knowledge base. * **Add Sitemap** – Use your site’s sitemap to add all listed pages automatically. This allows you to add pages individually or in bulk, depending on your needs. ### Concurrent Scans and Updates Zipchat ensures your knowledge base stays up to date with **automatic scheduled scans**: * **Starter and Growth Plans** – Weekly scans * **Pro, Scale, and Enterprise Plans** – Daily scans These scans check for **new pages** and **updates to existing pages**, keeping your knowledge base current. #### Hard Reset / Rescan If the initial scroll was incomplete, blocked (e.g., via Cloudflare), or something went wrong during the scan, you can request a **hard reset / rescan** through the support team. This will reprocess your website and update your knowledge base accordingly. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com. ## Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters: ``` GET https://docs.zipchat.ai/help-center/adding-multiple-pages-to-your-knowledge-base.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
