### Answer It looks like you're encountering issues with integrating a knowledge base into your assistant. Here are a few steps and considerations to help resolve the problems: 1. **Ensure Proper Knowledge Base Configuration**: - Make sure you are following the correct steps for creating and configuring your knowledge base as outlined in the [documentation]() [(1)]() . - Verify that the documents uploaded to the knowledge base are correctly formatted and properly linked to the assistant. 2. **Creating an Assistant**: - When creating an assistant programmatically, ensure that the configuration includes the correct references to the knowledge base. Here’s an example of how you might create an assistant with knowledge base integration:

javascript
    curl --request POST \
    --url https://api.vapi.ai/assistant \
    --header 'Authorization: Bearer <token>' \
    --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
    --data '{
        "transcriber": {...},
        "model": {
            "provider": "openai",
            "model": "gpt-4-turbo",
            "knowledgeBase": {
                "fileIds": ["<file_id>"],  // Ensure this is correctly set
                "provider": "canonical"
            },
            ...
        },
        ...
    }'

javascript
    curl --request GET \
    --url https://api.vapi.ai/assistant/{id} \
    --header 'Authorization: Bearer <token>'

By ensuring the configuration is correct and all steps are followed as per the documentation, you should be able to resolve the issues related to knowledge base integration.
