What Can Be Edited
Not all knowledge items can be edited after creation. The type of item and whether it was created by the system determines what you can change:| Item type | Editable? | What you can change |
|---|---|---|
| Text content (user-created) | Yes | Title and text content |
| Website (user-created) | No | Cannot be edited — delete and re-add instead |
| PDF / Document | No | Cannot be edited — delete and re-upload instead |
| System items (auto-generated) | No | Use the sync button to refresh instead |
Editing a Text Content Item
Text items are the most flexible — you can update both the title and the full text content at any time.- Go to Knowledge in your dashboard sidebar
- Find the text item you want to edit
- Click the pencil icon (Edit) on the item
- Title — Update the name of the item (up to 200 characters). This is how the item appears in your knowledge list.
- Text Content — Edit the full content in the large text area. This is the actual information your assistant will reference during calls.
- Make your changes
- Click Update Content to save
Tip: After editing, your assistant will use the updated content on the very next call. There is no delay or re-processing step for text items.
Editing from the Documents View
If you are viewing items inside a specific knowledge base (the documents list view), you can also edit text items from there:- Click the three-dot menu on the item row
- Select Edit
- The edit dialog opens with the same fields described above
- Make your changes and click the save button
What to Do When You Cannot Edit
For item types that cannot be directly edited, here are your options:PDF / Document items
Uploaded documents cannot be modified after upload. To update the content:- Delete the existing item
- Upload the updated document as a new item
- Re-link the new item to any assistants that were using the old one
System items (auto-generated)
System knowledge items are fully locked by VozAgent. Their content is not viewable, they cannot be edited, and they cannot be unlinked from assistants. Instead of editing them directly:- Business KB — Update your business profile in Settings > Business Profile, then click the sync button (refresh icon) on the item to regenerate it
- Website KB — Update your actual website, then click the sync button on the item to re-scrape the latest content
Admin Permissions
Only admin users can edit knowledge items. If you have a non-admin role:- You can view knowledge items and their content
- The edit button (pencil icon) will not appear
- Contact your organization admin to make changes
Tips for Keeping Knowledge Current
- Review after business changes — Whenever you update your hours, pricing, services, or policies, update the matching knowledge items so your assistant stays accurate.
- Check the content after editing — Use the view content button (eye icon) to verify the saved content looks correct.
- Update titles for clarity — A clear, descriptive title helps you find items quickly and makes the knowledge list easier to manage.
- Re-add after website updates — Website items cannot be edited after creation. If you need to update a website knowledge item, delete it and add the URL again. For system website items, use the sync button from the knowledge list to re-scrape.
