Minimum firing interval is 1 hour. name: Agent Schedules - name: Reporting description: >- GenAI reporting API over canonical analytics rollups. Accepts a metric name, time range, grain, group-by, and filters; returns a typed time series and optional totals. - name: ReportingService description: |- ReportingService exposes a single QueryReport RPC that maps allowlisted analytics payloads onto safe rollup queries. Callers never send SQL; the backend picks the rollup family and grain from the metric catalogue, the requested range, and the requested grouping. externalDocs: url: https://docs.orq.ai description: orq.ai Documentation paths: /v2/knowledge/{knowledge_id}: get: tags: - Knowledge Bases summary: Retrieves a knowledge base description: Retrieve a knowledge base with the settings. operationId: GetOneKnowledge parameters: - schema: type: string description: Unique identifier of the knowledge base required: true description: Unique identifier of the knowledge base name: knowledge_id in: path responses: '200': description: Knowledge base retrieved content: application/json: schema: oneOf: - type: object properties: _id: type: string description: The unique identifier of the knowledge base. created: type: string description: The creation date of the knowledge base. description: type: string description: The description of the knowledge base. key: type: string description: The unique key of the knowledge base. domain_id: type: string description: The project/domain ID of the knowledge base. path: type: string description: >- Entity storage path.
