The Basic Parser is a content parser that Knowledge AI uses to extract content from files more effectively. The Basic Parser splits the extracted content from a file into Knowledge Chunks based on a fixed token length during the creation of a Knowledge Source. Based on our research, this parsing method works best with the Top K value set to 5 in the Search Extract Output Node.
