Managing repository lifecycle

note

Knowledge Hub is an Early Access release. Refer to the Early Access disclaimer for details.

A repository enters Enabled state as soon as you create it and remains in that state. Repositories have no Disable action. You can update a repository's title and description, or remove it entirely. This topic covers each of these actions.

Repository states

State	Description
Enabled	The repository and its Knowledge Bases are active and available for ingestion and retrieval. A repository enters this state automatically when you create it.
Update	Not a state change. You can edit the repository's title or description at any time without affecting the Enabled state or its Knowledge Bases.
Delete	Permanently removes the repository, along with all its Knowledge Bases and their indexed data. This action cannot be undone.

Disabling and archiving are not currently supported for repositories.

4. In the Edit Repository dialog, update the Repository Title (maximum 150 characters), the Description (maximum 1000 characters), or both.
5. Select Save to apply your changes, or Cancel to discard them.

Deleting a repository

Deleting permanently removes the repository record and all associated Knowledge Bases and their indexed data. This action cannot be undone.

1. In Knowledge Hub, select Repositories.
2. Locate the repository, select the ⋮ menu, and select Delete.
3. Review the Delete Repository? dialog, which shows how many Knowledge Bases you will delete along with the repository.
4. Select Delete to confirm.
