What Gets Deleted

When you delete a document:
  • Document record is removed from the database
  • Vector embeddings are deleted from the vector database
  • Processed content is removed from external document storage
  • Parent knowledge base status is automatically updated
This action is irreversible. The document and all its processed content will be permanently deleted.
If this was the last document in the knowledge base, the knowledge base status will change to empty.
