Knowledge
Pages and databases shared across an organization, in the Knowledge app and over the API and MCP.
Knowledge is an organization's shared set of pages: docs, notes and runbooks, and databases of rows with typed properties. Open it at knowledge.dev.gov.vin or from the app switcher. Old Cloud links to /<org>/docs/<page> redirect there.
Access
Every member of an organization can open its pages. What they can do follows their role's scopes:
| Scope | Allows |
|---|---|
knowledge:read | Open, search and favorite pages. |
knowledge:write | Create, edit, move, trash and restore pages; change database properties and rows. |
Share on a page copies its link. There's no per-page sharing: anyone in the organization with knowledge:read can open the link, and editing follows their role. See Roles and scopes.
Workspaces
The app opens the organization you used last (else the platform organization, else your first). Switch organizations from the sidebar's workspace menu. The home page lists your favorites and recently edited pages.
Pages
A page has a title, an optional emoji icon and block content: text, headings, lists, quotes, code and the other blocks of the editor. Pages nest: Add page inside from a page's menu creates a subpage. Move to… moves a page and its subpages under another page or to the top level.
The editor saves as you type, one second after you stop or every ten seconds while you keep typing. Content is stored as blocks plus a Markdown copy; a page's stored content can be up to 1 MB, and the editor stops saving and tells you when it's over.
If someone else saved the page since you opened it, saving stops with This page was changed somewhere else. Reload to get their version, or keep your copy and replace theirs.
Databases
A database is a page whose children are rows. Each row is itself a page, with values for the database's properties and its own content.
| Property type | Values |
|---|---|
text | Text, up to 2,000 characters. |
number | Any finite number. |
select | One option. |
multi_select | Any number of options. |
date | A date. |
checkbox | On or off. |
url | A link. |
A new database starts with a Tags multi-select. Add, rename, retype or remove properties from the column headers; a database can have up to 50 properties and a select up to 100 options, each with an optional color. Changing a property's type clears the values stored under the old type. Sort by any column from its header.
Favorites
Add to favorites (the star, or the page menu) pins a page to the top of your sidebar and home page. Favorites are personal: they need only knowledge:read, and each person can have up to 200 per organization. A page in the trash can't be added.
Search
Search matches every word you type, case-insensitive, against titles and the first 4,000 characters of each page's text. Title matches rank first; results are capped at 20.
Trash
Move to trash hides a page and its subpages from the tree, search and favorites. The Trash view lists trashed pages; Restore brings a page back with its subpages.
API and MCP
- The Knowledge pages API lists, reads, creates, edits, moves and trashes pages, and manages favorites. Saving content takes the
baseVersionyou started from and fails with409if the page has changed since. - The MCP server has
pages_list,page_getandpage_search(withknowledge:read) andpage_upsert(withknowledge:write), so AI clients can read and write pages as Markdown. - Chat can search and read pages while answering.
