Vectara + Memtro

What do our Vectara corpora say about refunds, and which documents match best?

Vectara connects Memtro to your retrieval platform. It runs semantic search across one or more corpora, returning the best-matching passages with scores, document ids and metadata. It reads corpora with their size and encoder, document lists and the text of a document's first parts, background jobs and agents. When asked and granted, it can add a document, merge or replace a document's metadata, delete documents, create, rename, disable or enable a corpus, empty a corpus and delete one. Search generates no answer and spends no LLM credits, and a Query key can read but not change anything.

In Memtro

What you can do with Vectara in Memtro

Ask in plain English from chat, your editor, a scheduled job or your own agent. The model picks the right Vectara tool, reads what it needs, and answers with the source cited.

What it does

  1. 01Semantic search over one or more corpora, with the best-matching passages, scores, document ids and metadata, narrowed by a metadata filter if needed.
  2. 02Corpora with name, encoder, document count, filterable metadata fields and bytes used of the maximum.
  3. 03Documents in a corpus with metadata and counts, and the text of one document's first parts.
  4. 04Background jobs with state and progress, and agents with model and whether each is enabled.
  5. 05When asked and granted, adds a document that anything searching the corpus can then find, merges or replaces its metadata, or deletes documents for good.
  6. 06When asked and granted, creates, renames, disables or enables a corpus, or permanently empties or deletes one with all its data.

Acts when asked

When you ask it to

These tools change something in Vectara. The model is told to use them only when you ask for exactly that, and an administrator grants each one by name to the teams that may use it; a personal connection acts only after its owner allows it.

  1. 01Add a text document to a corpus
  2. 02Merge new metadata into a document
  3. 03Replace a document's metadata
  4. 04Delete a document (permanent)
  5. 05Delete up to 100 named documents (permanent, runs as a background job)
  6. 06Create a corpus
  7. 07Rename, describe, disable or enable a corpus
  8. 08Empty a corpus of every document (permanent)
  9. 09Delete a corpus and all its data (permanent)
In practice

Ask it like you would a colleague

Once Vectara is connected, these are the kinds of things people ask. Plain questions, no syntax. If the answer lives partly in another system you have connected, Memtro looks there too.

  • What does the policies corpus say about refunds?

  • Which corpora are closest to their storage maximum?

  • Which documents in the contracts corpus have the status archived?

  • Has the bulk delete from last night finished?

  • Disable the old support corpus.

01

Finding the right policy

Maya Okafor, support manager at Acme Ltd, asked what the help centre corpus said about returns after 30 days. Memtro searched it and gave her the best-matching passages with their scores and document ids. She opened the top document and quoted it to the customer.

02

Retiring a corpus

Tom Reilly, platform lead at BigCo, asked Memtro to disable the old product docs corpus once the new one was live. With the action granted, Memtro disabled it, taking it offline for search and indexing without deleting it. It can be enabled again if anyone needs it.

Teams

Where it fits

The teams that lean on Vectara most, a question each of them asks, and what they connect beside it.

Better together

Works with

A record in Vectara is rarely the whole story. Connect the systems that hold the rest and Memtro checks them together, then remembers what it learned so the next question starts further along.

Setup

How to connect

Connect withAPI key
  1. 1

    In the Vectara Console, open Authorization, then Index and Query API Keys, and create a key for the corpora Memtro may use. A Query key only searches and reads, and an Index key also changes documents.

  2. 2

    In Memtro, open Connections → Vectara and paste the API key.

  3. 3

    An administrator grants the document and corpus actions by name to the teams that may use them. A personal key carries every permission its owner has, so prefer a scoped one.

  4. 4

    Ask what the policies corpus says about refunds.

Also works from

Chat in the dashboard, the OpenAI-compatible API, scheduled jobs, and any MCP client: Claude Code, OpenCode, Cursor, Claude Desktop. The Vectara tools are the same everywhere.

FAQ

Questions

Can Memtro change anything in Vectara?+

Only when you ask, and only what it has been granted: add a text document to a corpus; merge new metadata into a document; replace a document's metadata; delete a document (permanent); delete up to 100 named documents (permanent, runs as a background job); create a corpus; rename, describe, disable or enable a corpus; empty a corpus of every document (permanent); delete a corpus and all its data (permanent). Every other tool reads, searches or lists. The Connections page labels the tools that act, an administrator grants each one by name to the teams that may use it, and a personal connection acts only after its owner allows it.

Who can use a Vectara connection?+

A personal connection serves only your own requests. A shared connection serves the organisation: everyone, or only the teams an admin chooses. Admins can always add shared connections; other members need the permission.

Does Memtro store my Vectara data?+

Credentials are encrypted at rest. Tool results are cached briefly so agent loops do not repeat identical calls, and the facts the model extracts are saved to your organisation's memory with provenance (system, record and link) so they can be checked and superseded.

How do I connect Vectara?+

API key. In the Vectara Console, open Authorization, then Index and Query API Keys, and create a key for the corpora Memtro may use. A Query key only searches and reads, and an Index key also changes documents.
