Data Management

Managing data in Dust is crucial, here's how to make sure you set the right data at the right place.

You can make data available to your Dust workspace, either via Company Data or with Vaults. Each have distinct security features.

How to add data to a vault


Create the vault

Only workspace admins can create and manage vaults:

  1. Go to "Knowledge" tab
  2. Click "Create Vault"
  3. Name the vault
  4. Add at least one member
  5. Click "Create"

Add Data to a vault

To add data from a connection (connected by an Admin),

  1. Enter your vault and click on "Connected Data.".
  2. Click "Add data from connections".
  3. From the modal, select only the data that should be available to the vault.
  4. Click "Save."


Only admins can add data from "Connections" to a vault.

However, vault members can add folders, websites, and apps.


Using vaults in Assistant Tools

When creating an assistant, selecting a tool that requires data access will necessitate choosing which vault the data should come from.

❗️

Currently, one assistant can use data from a single vault.

For example, if the assistant "signupRadar" is responsible for looking up recent sign-ups and uses a search tool querying signups from the Snowflake connection in the "Sales Ops" vault, all other tools will be limited to this vault.

The vault used by an assistant determines who can see and use the assistant. Only members of the vault used by the assistant's tools will be able to see and use it.

Limitations and Plan Details

The number of vaults you can create depends on your plan. Pro plans are currently limited to one vault. For more information or assistance with Dust Vaults, please contact our support team at [email protected].
