DOCUMENT SEARCH AND ANSWERING · Workflow idea

Find useful passages in a document library while keeping sources and uncertainty visible.

For documents approved for this purpose, extract text from supported files, divide it into searchable passages, and prepare answers using relevant source material. Preserve document names, versions, and access groups; keep source files unchanged; and state when evidence is missing or conflicting. Require a qualified person to review consequential interpretations before they guide decisions.

Keep in mind

Indexing can expose restricted text, and old or incomplete documents can lead to misleading conclusions. Enforce original permissions, maintain removal and refresh rules, cite passages, protect conversation history, and escalate important questions to a qualified reviewer.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Preserve each file’s audience and access restrictions in search results.

Set refresh, removal, and version rules

Keep changed or withdrawn material from remaining in active results.

Require citations and uncertainty statements

Make source references and limitations visible with every answer.

Protect files and question history

Limit storage, retention, and access to the approved purpose.
