Knowledge Discovery 26.1
Getting Started Guide

# Create Documents

Unless your data is in XML format, you must first import it. You can import data using one of two methods.

- Import with a connector. The Knowledge Discovery connectors (for example, File System Connector, HTTP Connector, Database Connector, and so on) retrieve documents from different repositories and import them into IDX or XML file format. For details of how to configure a connector to import data and index it into Knowledge Discovery, refer to the appropriate Connector Administration Guide.

- Import manually. You can create a text file in either XML or IDX format, which contains the information that you want to index into your Content component in specific fields. For details of how to create a manual IDX document, refer to the Content component Help.
