Requesting an inbound webhook or API to automate adding data to the Pickaxe knowledge base

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to automate reports saved as .txt files in google drive to my Pickaxe knowledge base, but the current webhook only supports sending data from Pickaxe to Make/Zapier, not receiving data into the knowledge base. This means I need to manually upload files, which isn’t scalable.

Is there any way we can get an inbound webhook/API to send data directly to the knowledge base? Has anyone found a way to automate adding data to the pickaxe knowledge base? And if you’d also benefit from an inbound webhook, please upvote!

Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

This seems pretty obvious, why wouldn’t this exist easily? Particular with the abhorrent new Studio Knowledge Base which destroys file management for power users.

This has been asked so many times - You can do it with a google sheet / excel spreadsheet

From what I understand, the post suggests that instead of automating the transfer of .txt files from Google Drive to Pickaxe, I just upload a Google Sheet or Excel spreadsheet containing my report data directly to the Pickaxe knowledge base. This approach still involves manual uploads, which I’m trying to avoid. It also doesn’t address the automation of new reports as they’re generated, so they’d need to be continuously added to the spreadsheet and then re-uploaded which isn’t practical for my workflow.

Hey @roxf15 - @ihmunro method is one way to do it, and also you can use an n8n or Make webhook to connect a Pinecone database (if your DB contains a vast amount of documents/media).

Thanks - or we can connect directly to the Pinecone database with the Action - however, I cannot seem to make it work.

@ihmunro you can connect to the Pinecone assistant which handles threads and streaming. Connecting to the Pinecone vector database (inference API) is more complicated.

@roxf15 that would be a nice feature. I have moved the post under feature request so people can vote
