Core concepts
Learn about the basics of SID
Capsules
Capsules are where data is stored – think of it like a mixture between a database and an S3 bucket.
Each one is assigned a unique ID like irrotational-airfoil
and is hosted at: https://irrotational-airfoil.sid.ai
.
Data can be added through the dashboard or programmatically with the API.
Queries
A query is the primary way to acces information in a capsule. They are designed to be easy for LLMs to write. Every query has three parts:
query
: natural language query, like “What is the capital of France?”wishlist
: desired metadata filters – they can be completely free-form and don’t need to exist in the datalimit
: the maximum number of results to return
API keys
API keys are used to authenticate requests to the API. You can create an API key in the dashboard.
