Changing the Content Assistant embedding model for an object store

You can review the Content Assistant embedding model for an object store.

Before you begin

If the index state is set to active, you cannot change the embedding model for an object store. Before you change the Content Assistant embedding model for an object store, you need to disable vector indexing for the object store. For more information, see the topic Disabling vector indexing for an object store.

About this task

You can change the embedding model to improve how the Content Assistant processes text and delivers more accurate results for features like document comparison and summarization.
Important: To ensure that all documents are correctly processed and searchable with the new embedding model, you must reindex the object store after changing the model.

You may change the default embedding by changing the Gen AI Embedding Model in the Gen AI configuration object, to a model that the Content Assistant supports. For more information, see the topic Content Assistant supported models.

Procedure

  1. In the Administration Console for Content Platform Engine (ACCE), access the Gen AI Configuration object for the object store where you want to use the Content Assistant.
    Tip: Starting with Content Platform Engine 26.0, you can open the Gen AI Configuration object for the selected object store directly from Administrative > Content Assistant > Gen AI Configuration.
    1. Go to the object store where you want to use the Content Assistant.
    2. In the left pane, click Search.
    3. Click New Object Store Search.
    4. In Simple View, specify the Class as Gen AI Configuration, and click Run.
      The search results display a single Gen AI Configuration object.
    5. From the search results, click the object ID to access the properties for the Gen AI Configuration object.
  2. In the Properties tab, specify the embedding model in Gen AI Embedding Model Name and click Save.

What to do next

After you change the embedding model for the object store, you need to reindex the document content. For more information, see the topic Reindexing document content.
