Wait for ingestion to settle

Ingestion starts immediately and can take a few moments to complete, but the the systems that power search and context are available right away, and will only contine to get more intelligent as more data is ingested.

Run your first search

curl https://api.adapter.com/v1/knowledge/search \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $ADAPTER_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "q": "pricing discussions with enterprise customers",
    "limit": 5
  }'
A typical response looks like:
{
  "count": 3,
  "results": [
    {
      "evidence_type": "email",
      "score": 0.87,
      "snippet": "Following up on the pricing thread from last week — they pushed back on...",
      "timestamp": "2026-04-21T18:42:11Z"
    }
  ]
}

Build context for an LLM (optional)

For agentic use cases, you can get deeper context for reasoning using our context or query endpoints.
curl https://api.adapter.com/v1/knowledge/context \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $ADAPTER_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"query": "what do we know about Acme Corp?", "max_tokens": 4000}'
