Configure Internal Knowledge Ingestion
Internal sources are the internal knowledge articles that you have published in your knowledge management systems. Moveworks supports integration with a wide array of knowledge management systems.
In this guide you will learn how to set up ingestion for these articles into Moveworks. After these articles have been ingested by your Moveworks AI Assistant, it will be able to more intelligently respond to user’s queries.
Internal Sources module

To get to the Internal Sources module, go to Moveworks Setup, then click on Answers, and then click on Internal Sources.
Once you go to Internal Sources, there will be a table listing out all past knowledge ingestion configurations. You can edit one of these pre-existing configurations or create a new configuration.
Note: When creating a new knowledge ingestion, some systems must be configured via the wizard flow, which is the standard method of configuring a system, and others must be configured via the advance mode.

Troubleshooting
- I selected a connector but it says “we don’t support this action now”, what should I do ?
This means that the connector selected is not supported by Moveworks Setup as of now. Go ahead and select the functioning connector that you have created. - I see multiple SNOW connectors, which one to select ?
You can create multiple ServiceNow connectors and all the connectors are shown to you in the first step of the configuration. Select the connector that you created and is functioning. - I accidentally selected the wrong domain for an ingestion and submitted, what can I do now?
Domain modification for an ingestion is not supported as of now, you can contact your Moveworks Customer Success team to make this change. - I think some Knowledge Bases are missing from the table? How is this possible ?
Please go back to the table view and check again, please ensure that you have gone through all the pages. If there are still tables that are missing, you can also use Advance mode to add custom tables. - I don’t see my custom tables in a knowledge base but I need them, what can I do?
