Connect Ask Steve to your Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) system

Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG)

• RAG is how you can give LLMs access to your corporate data so they can answer questions with your proprietary internal knowledge.
• Ask Steve can be pointed to an API that uses your RAG system instead of directly to an LLM so it can answer employee questions, wherever they are, in the flow of work.
• This example uses the open source vector database qdrant for storing information and the visual workflow builder n8n for creating the code that connects OpenAI's gpt4o-mini to the vector database.
• An Ask Steve Skill was created that calls the n8n API, which tells the OpenAI LLM to search the qdrant vector database and use the results in its answer.
