Hi, I have tried quite a lot with the “knowledge bank” part but whenever I ask about document information (it is a list of shops and each shop has 3 columns of information). I have prepared the document in different formats but it always gives me incomplete information and some information is not even given even though it is in the document.

## An example of the data is the following:

## Shop name: La Pica Main products: Hamburgers Location: 1T2MCO017/1T2MCO022 Terminal: 2 Floor: 1

With that reference I have a list of 45 shops for testing and the document size is 5.22 KB, which is very little. I have tried formatting in blocks, json, csv, etc. and the same thing always happens.

Any solution ?

Can you please review this documentation?

This page demonstrates how to use the knowledge bank to add more information to your character than you can using the backstory alone.

Yes, I have seen a lot of documentation, videos, etc etc, but no matter how much testing I do, there are always elements of the data that it is not able to deliver. In Chat GPT one can deliver data tables, json, etc, and it is able to respond well to each information delivered but here in convai it is not the same. I leave a sample of data:

## Example 1

## Store name: Bon Bon, Main Products: Completos, Location: #1T2MCO001#, Terminal: 2, Floor: 1 Store name: La Pica, Main Products: Hamburguesas, Location: #1T2MCO017/1T2MCO022#, Terminal: 2, Floor: 1

## Example 2

{  
Store name: Bon Bon,  
Main Products: Completos,  
Location: #1T2MCO001#,  
Terminal: 2,  
Floor: 1  
},  
{  
Store name: La Pica,  
Main Products: Hamburguesas,  
Location: #1T2MCO017/1T2MCO022#,  
Terminal: 2,  
Floor: 1  
}

Additional: Why does the convei chat give me the following error ?

Something went wrong!  
grpc: received message larger than max (4912204 vs. 4194304)

i just send the short messages… something like 3 to 10 words ?

Now i use this format, separated by single line:

Store Name: La Pica  
Main Products: Hamburguesas  
Location: 1T2MCO017/1T2MCO022  
Terminal: 2  
Floor: 1

Store name: Bon Bon,  
Main Products: Completos,  
Location: #1T2MCO001#,  
Terminal: 2,  
Floor: 1

And the 80% - 90% dont know the shop… very strange.

I can’t believe it, the knowledge base is malfunctioning.  
There is so much data that convai doesn’t know how to answer even though it has the information. I’ve done the same tests very quickly with ChatGPT and it’s amazing how accurate it is… which is what I’m looking for.

Is there any way to integrate ChatGPT with Convai ?

One of the problems is that it doesn’t accept JSON which is a structured way of delivering information to the wizard.
