Configuring AI Knowledge

AI Knowledge is Prisme.ai’s product for agentic assistants powered by tools and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG). It enables teams to build agents that leverage internal knowledge across various formats, interact with APIs via tools, and collaborate with other agents through context sharing — enabling true multi-agent workflows with robust LLM support and enterprise-grade configuration options.

This guide explains how to configure AI Knowledge in a self-hosted environment.

Core Capabilities

Configure multi-model support with failover and fine-tuned prompts
Automate agent provisioning via AI Builder
Enforce limits, security, and monitoring
Enable builtin tools like summarization, search, code interpreter, web browsing
Integrate with OpenSearch, Redis, or other vector stores

LLM Providers

OpenAI

Configure the llm.openai.openai.models field :

llm:
  openai:
    ...
    openai:
      api_key: '{{secret.openaiApiKey}}'
      models:
        - gpt-4
        - gpt-4o
        - o1-preview
        - o1-mini

OpenAI Azure

Configure the llm.openai.azure.resources.*.deployments field.
Multiple resources can be added by appending additional entries to the llm.openai.azure.resources array :

llm:
  openai:
    azure:
      resources:
        - resource: "resource name"
          api_key: '{{secret.azureOpenaiApiKey}}'
          api_version: '2023-05-15'
          deployments:
            - gpt-4
            - embedding-ada

Bedrock

Configure the llm.bedrock.*.models and llm.bedrock.*.region fields.
Multiple regions can be used by appending additional entries to the llm.bedrock array :

llm:
  ...
  bedrock:
    - credentials:
        aws_access_key_id: '{{secret.awsBedrockAccessKey}}'
        aws_secret_access_key: '{{secret.awsBedrockSecretAccessKey}}'
      models:
        - mistral.mistral-large-2402-v1:0
        - amazon.titan-embed-image-v1
      region: eu-west-3
    - credentials:
        aws_access_key_id: '{{secret.awsBedrockAccessKey}}'
        aws_secret_access_key: '{{secret.awsBedrockSecretAccessKey}}'
      models:
        - amazon.titan-embed-text-v1
      region: us-east-1

Vertex

Configure the llm.openai.vertex field :

llm:
  vertex:
    credentials:
      service_account: '{{secret.vertexServiceAccount}}'
    host: us-central1-aiplatform.googleapis.com
    models:
      - projects/my-project-id/locations/us-central1/publishers/google/models/gemini-2.5-flash-preview-05-20

While deploying a model through Vertex the name of the model should represent the full endpoint name as in the above example.

The modelAliases feature comes really handy for this provider! In order to provide better readability to your users the above can be transformed into:

llm:
  vertex:
    credentials:
      service_account: '{{secret.vertexServiceAccount}}'
    host: us-central1-aiplatform.googleapis.com
    models:
      - vertex-gemini-2.5-flash-preview-05-20
 ...
 modelAliases:
  vertex-gemini-2.5-flash-preview-05-20: projects/my-project-id/locations/us-central1/publishers/google/models/gemini-2.5-flash-preview-05-20

Note that the service_account credentials should be ommitted if you deployed your platform on GCP and rely on IAM authentication. Also, the service_account value should either be :

JSON
Stringified JSON (handy if you save it within a secret)

OpenAI-Compatible Providers

Configure the llm.openailike field :

llm:
  ...
  openailike:
    - api_key: "{{config.apiKey1}}"
      endpoint: "endpoint 1"
      models:
        - mistal-large
    - api_key: "{{secret.apiKey2}}"
      endpoint: "endpoint 2"
      provider: Mistral
      models:
        - mistral-small
        - mistral-mini
      options:
        excludeParameters:
          - presence_penalty
          - frequency_penalty
          - seed

Optional Parameters:

provider: The provider name used in analytics metrics and dashboards.
options.excludeParameters: Allows exclusion of certain OpenAI generic parameters not supported by the given model.

Gemini integration :

        - api_key: '{{secret.geminiApiKey}}'
          endpoint: https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/openai/
          models:
            - gemini-2.0-flash
            - gemini-2.0-flash-lite
            - gemini-1.5-pro
            - gemini-2.5-pro-preview-03-25
          options:
            excludeParameters:
              - presence_penalty
              - frequency_penalty

Global Configuration

Default models

Rate Limits

Rate limits can currently be applied at two stages in messages processing :

When a message is received (requestsPerMinute limits for projects or users).
After RAG stages and before the LLM call (tokensPerMinute limits for projects, users, models, or requestsPerMinute limits for models).

Embedding model rate limits are applied before vectorizing a document, per project or model.

This is how to configure token and request limits globally or per user/project:

limits:
  files_count: 20
  llm:
    users:
      tokensPerMinute: 100000
      requestsPerMinute: 20
    projects:
      tokensPerMinute: 30000
      requestsPerMinute: 300
  embeddings:
    projects:
      tokensPerMinute: 1000000

limits.llm.users: Defines per-user message/token limits across all projects.
limits.llm.projects: Defines default message/token limits per project. These limits can be overridden per project via the /admin page in AI Knowledge.
limits.files_count: Specifies the maximum number of documents allowed in AI Knowledge projects. This number can also be overridden per project via the /admin page.

See Models specifications for rate limits per model.

Model Aliases

If you have multiple LLM Providers or regions with the same model names (for example gpt-4), you can use custom names:

llm:
   openai:
      azure:
         resources:
            - resource: "resource name"
              api_key: '{{secret.azureOpenaiApiKey}}'
              api_version: '2023-05-15'
              deployments:
                 - gpt-4-openai
      openai:
         api_key: '{{secret.openaiApiKey}}'
         models:
            - gpt-4-azure

And you can map them to the name expected by the provider with the following:

modelAliases:
   gpt-4-openai: gpt-4
   gpt-4-azure: gpt-4

As a reminder, here is how modelsSpecifications could look like :

modelsSpecifications:
  gpt-4-openai:
    displayName: GPT 4 OpenAi
    maxContext: 8192
    ...
  gpt-4-azure:
    displayName: GPT 4 Azure
    maxContext: 8192
    ...

SSO Access

If you have your own SSO configured, you need to explicitly allow SSO authenticated users to access AI Knowledge pages :

Open AI Knowledge workspace
Open Settings > Advanced
Manage roles
Add your SSO provider technical name after prismeai: {} at the very beginning :

authorizations:
  roles:
    editor: {}
    free:
      auth:
        prismeai: {}
        yourOwnSso: {}

Account Management

By default, sharing an agent with an external email will automatically send an invitation mail to let the external user create an account and access the agent.

You can disable this to enforce user control :

disableAccountCreation: true

Only existing users will be able to access shared agents.

Onboarding, Toasts & Statuses

AI Knowledge supports onboarding flows, multilingual statuses, and customizable notifications:

status:
  colors:
    published: '#5CA44A'
    pending: '#FF9261'
    draft: '#E5E5E5'
prompt:
  default: |
    You will only answer based on this context:
    ${context}
toasts:
  i18n:
    fr:
      documentCrawled: a été indexé par votre IA 🤖
    en:
      documentCrawled: was indexed by your AI 🤖

Models Configuration

Configure all available models with descriptions, rate limits, and failover:

modelsSpecifications:
  gpt-4o:
    displayName: GPT 4
    maxContext: 128000
    maxResponseTokens: 2000
    isHiddenFromEndUser: true
    subtitle:
      fr: Modèle hébergé aux USA.
      en: Model hosted in the USA.
    description:
      fr: Le modèle GPT-4o sur OpenAI. Vous pouvez utiliser des documents C1 et C2.
      en: The GPT-4o model on OpenAI. You can use documents C1 and C2.
    rateLimits:
      requestsPerMinute: 1000
      tokensPerMinute: 100000
    failoverModel: 'gpt-4o'
    region: eu-west
	environmentalMetrics:
	  energyPerToken: 4.35e-7
      pueProfile: efficient
  text-embedding-ada-002:
    type: embeddings
    maxContext: 2048
    batchSize: 96
    subtitle: {}
    description: {}
  mistral.mistral-large-2402-v1:0:
    maxContext: 120000
    additionalRequestBody:
      completions:
        guardrailConfig:
          guardrailIdentifier: "..."
          guardrailVersion: '1'
      embeddings: {}

Customize descriptions

Context & response tokens

Provider specific parameters

Embeddings batch size

By default, documents paragraphs are vectorized in batches of 96.
You can customize this batchSize per model :

modelsSpecifications:
  text-embedding-ada-002:
    type: embeddings
    maxContext: 2048
    batchSize: 50

Or globally :

embeddings:
  batchSize: 50

Rate Limits

Environmental metrics

Environmental metric can be calculated when using models by setting the region where the model is hosted :

region: world | eu-west | eu-north | us-east | us-west | asia

energy consumed per token (in kWh) and PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness) profile :

environmentalMetrics:
  energyPerToken: 4.35e-7
  pueProfile: efficient | average | inefficient

Vector Store Configuration

To enable retrieval-based answers, configure a vector store:

vectorStore:
  provider: redisSearch
  url: '{{secret.redisUrl}}'

Or with OpenSearch:

vectorStore:
  provider: openSearch
  url: '{{secret.opensearchUrl}}'
  user: '{{secret.opensearchUser}}'
  password: '{{secret.opensearchPassword}}'
