Summary

Vectara has introduced a new document listing feature in both its API and Console, enabling users to efficiently manage and inspect the documents within a corpus. This release allows users to list documents by sending a request to the list-documents API, which returns a configurable number of document IDs and their associated metadata, with pagination options similar to other Vectara API calls. An example use case involves filtering documents by metadata to selectively remove and reindex specific sources, such as documentation site pages. The updated Console also supports document listing, displaying an initial set of documents with detailed views and deletion options. This enhancement aims to simplify document lifecycle management for developers and invites user feedback through forums and Discord, encouraging exploration of Vectara's offerings for retrieval-augmented generation.
