What You Will Learn

  • Two ways to train your chatbot using documents
  • How to upload documents during bot creation
  • How to add documents through the Knowledge Base
  • How Botvee processes document content
  • How to test your chatbot after document training

Method 1: Add Documents When Creating the Bot

During bot creation, inside the Assign Knowledge Base section, select the Documents option. Upload your PDF or DOC/DOCX files. After uploading, complete the bot creation process — Botvee will automatically begin processing the uploaded files in the background.

Method 2: Add Documents from the Knowledge Base

Step 1: Go to the Knowledge Base section in the Botvee dashboard.

Step 2: Click the Upload Files button and select your documents. Supported formats include PDF, DOC, and DOCX.

Step 3: Botvee processes the document content — reading the text, removing formatting and unnecessary elements, and converting the content into structured AI training data.

Step 4: Once processing is complete, confirm the files are visible in the Knowledge Base document list.

Step 5: Test your chatbot by asking questions related to the document content such as information from manuals, product instructions, or FAQ answers.

How Document Training Works

  1. 1The system reads the document file
  2. 2Text content is extracted from the document
  3. 3Formatting and unnecessary elements are removed
  4. 4The text is divided into smaller knowledge sections
  5. 5The information is stored in the chatbot knowledge base

Troubleshooting

Document upload failed — Make sure the file format is supported (PDF or DOC). Bot not responding with document information — Check that the document was processed successfully in the Knowledge Base. Large documents not fully processed — Try splitting the document into smaller sections before uploading.
