Re-index a knowledge-base document

POST
/kb/documents/{id}/reingest
import MoreVoice from "@morevoice/sdk";


const mv = new MoreVoice(); // MOREVOICE_API_KEY from the environment


const kbDocument = await mv.kbDocuments.reingest("kbd_7Hk2Lm9Qp");
console.log(kbDocument);

Reads the document again — a URL is fetched again, a file is re-read from its stored original — and re-indexes it in the background (202). 409 when the original of an uploaded file is not stored: upload it again.

Try it in the API playground with a test-mode key.
