Tools

Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions

NameDescription
get_document_versionsA

Retrieves all versions in the version series that includes the specified document. This returns all versions (past, current, and future) that belong to the same version series.

get_document_text_extractC

Retrieves a document's text extract content.

create_documentB

PREREQUISITES IN ORDER: To use this tool, you MUST call two other tools first in a specific sequence.

  1. determine_class tool to get the class_identifier.

  2. get_class_property_descriptions to get a list of valid properties for the given class_identifier

Description: Creates a document in the content repository with specified properties.

update_document_propertiesA

PREREQUISITES: Before using this tool, you MUST call ONE of these tools first:

  1. property_extraction - For content based property extraction workflows (provides class specific property names and document text content for AI-based extraction)

  2. get_class_property_descriptions - For general property updates (provides full property metadata including data types, cardinality, etc.)

Description: Updates an existing document's properties in the content repository. This tool ONLY updates properties and does NOT change the document's class. To change a document's class, use the update_document_class tool instead.

update_document_classA

PREREQUISITES: Before using this tool, you MUST call ONE of these tools first:

  1. list_all_classes - Call this tool only IF IT EXISTS and the user is using a (re)classification workflow where we need highest accuracy.

  2. determine_class - For general class update.

Description: Changes a document's class in the content repository. WARNING: Changing a document's class can result in loss of properties if the new class does not have the same properties as the old class. Properties that don't exist in the new class will be removed from the document.

This tool ONLY changes the document's class and does NOT update any properties. To update properties after changing the class, use the update_document_properties tool.

checkin_documentC

Checks in a document in the content repository with specified properties.

checkout_documentC

Checks out a document in the content repository.

delete_version_seriesA

Deletes an entire version series (all versions of a document) in the content repository.

delete_document_versionC

Deletes a specific document version in the content repository.

get_document_propertiesA

Retrieves a document's properties from the content repository by ID or path.

Note: Use this tool ONLY when you need to retrieve a document using its ID or file path. For searching documents by other properties, use the repository_search tool instead.

cancel_document_checkoutA

Cancels a document checkout in the content repository.

document_searchA

PREREQUISITES IN ORDER: To use this tool, you MUST call two other tools first in a specific sequence.

  1. determine_class tool to get the class_name for search_class. The search class must be a document class or a document subclass.

  2. get_searchable_property_descriptions to get a list of valid property_name for search_properties

Description: This tool will execute a request to search for documents based on content and the metadata criteria.

create_folderB

PREREQUISITES IN ORDER: To use this tool, you MUST call two other tools first in a specific sequence.

  1. determine_class tool to get the class_identifier.

  2. get_class_property_descriptions to get a list of valid properties for the given class_identifier

Creates a folder in the content repository with specified properties. This tool interfaces with the GraphQL API to create a new folder object with the provided parameters.

delete_folderB

Deletes a folder in the content repository. This tool interfaces with the GraphQL API to delete a folder object with the provided id.

:param id_or_path string Yes The unique identifier or path for the folder. If not provided, an error will be returned.

:returns: If successful, return the folder id. Else, return a ToolError instance that describes the error.

unfile_documentA

Unfile a document from a folder in the content repository. This tool interfaces with the GraphQL API to unfile document from folder with the provided ids.

:param folder_id_or_path string Yes The unique identifier or path for the folder. If not provided, an error will be returned. :param document_id string Yes The unique identifier for the document. If not provided, an error will be returned.

:returns: If successful, return the folder id. Else, return a ToolError instance that describes the error.

file_documentB

File a document to a folder in the content repository. This tool interfaces with the GraphQL API to create a referential containment relationship between a document and a folder.

:param document_id_or_path string Yes The unique identifier or path for the document. :param folder_id_or_path string Yes The unique identifier or path for the folder.

:returns: If successful, returns the reference containment relationship ID

Else, return a ToolError instance that describes the error.

update_folderA

PREREQUISITES IN ORDER: To use this tool, you MUST call two other tools first in a specific sequence.

  1. determine_class tool to get the class_identifier.

  2. get_class_property_descriptions to get a list of valid properties for the given class_identifier

Description: Updates an existing folder in the content repository with specified properties.

get_folder_documentsB

Retrieves a folder's contained documents.

get_folder_detailB

Description: Get an existing folder in the content repository information given a folder id

list_root_classesA

List all available root class types in the repository.

This tool should be called first to get a list of valid root class names before using the list_all_classes tool.

:returns: A list of all available root class types (e.g., ["Document", "Folder", "Annotation", "CustomObject"])

determine_classA

Find classes that match the given keywords by looking for substring matches in class names and descriptions.

IMPORTANT: To get a list of all valid class names that can be used with this tool, you MUST first call the list_root_classes_tool tool.

get_class_property_descriptionsA

Retrieves ALL properties of a class including system properties.

IMPORTANT: Use this tool ONLY for general document updates where you need to see ALL properties of a class, including system-owned and hidden properties.

DO NOT use this tool for property extraction workflows.

get_searchable_property_descriptionsA

Retrieves only the searchable properties of a class.

repository_object_searchB

PREREQUISITES IN ORDER: To use this tool, you MUST call two other tools first in a specific sequence.

  1. determine_class tool to get the class_name for search_class.

  2. get_searchable_property_descriptions to get a list of valid property_name for search_properties

Description: This tool retrieves repository objects other than Document instances.

lookup_documents_by_nameD
lookup_documents_by_pathB

PREREQUISITE: To use this tool, you MUST call the determine_class tool first to get the class_symbolic_name. If the user does not specify a specific clas then call determine_class with the root Document class.
