Connect your data

Connect your catalog, stock or prices live. The agent reads the data in the moment, never a stale copy, and always cites its source.

On this page

A data source is a live connection to a table or an endpoint. You plug it in once under Knowledge › Live data, and each agent then chooses whether to use it. The data stays with you; the agent reads it at the moment it answers.

How it works

The connection follows three steps, like all data tooling (Airbyte, Singer):

  1. Verify & discover: Magnitude validates your credentials and lists the available tables.
  2. The AI explores: it reads a sample, understands your columns, and proposes the field mapping (name, price, stock, image, link).
  3. Approve & connect: you confirm, and the source is ready.

Every agent that uses the source then gets a query tool. When a customer asks for something, the agent decides on the plan (keywords, filters: "price ≤ 200", "category = X") and reads the matching rows live. It never fabricates the data, and it cites the source.

Available connectors

Choose the connector that fits where your data lives:

One source, shared

A connected source is available to as many agents as you like. Your connection credentials stay encrypted and are never shown again.
