First vector search

Search the collection you extracted in Quickstart. Do not open a docs link that points at the application host. Catalog and search live in the Bundata application, not on this documentation site.

Ready means

• The workspace is stored.
• Smart Bites for that collection are indexed.
• The collection embedding profile matches the model that produced those vectors. See Models and credentials.
• Your role includes collection:read, document:read, and agent:run for a semantic query or a grounded answer.

Ask

1. Open search and answers and select this collection. Confirm the source yourself.
2. Enter a question about the documents. Semantic mode embeds the query with the collection profile.
3. Read the status. grounded includes citations. insufficient_evidence and source_changed return no answer body. unavailable means the provider call did not produce a citable answer.
4. Open the citation and compare it with the Smart Bite. If the evidence changed while the answer was prepared, ask again. Do not reuse a stale citation.

Workspace search read is limited per workspace and user (90 requests each 60 seconds in the current route policy). Answer calls that use a provider are tighter (12 each 60 seconds). Those numbers are the route policy in the current API, not a commercial plan table.

A non-retaining workspace has no stored search.
