Context grounding now in Public Preview

We are thrilled to announce that UiPath GenAI Activities now include Context grounding capabilities, allowing you to bring in your data to generate more accurate, reliable GenAI predictions.

Context grounding is a tenant-scoped platform service designed to support UiPath GenAI experiences by grounding prompts with relevant information before they are executed by a large language model.

You can leverage Context grounding through the enhanced Content Generation activity and two new activities: Index and Ingest (Public Preview) and Delete Index (Public Preview). Use Index and Ingest and Delete Index to upload and manage your data source for Context grounding, then use the Context Grounding parameter in Content Generation to query over documents and consume that information to augment or ground prompts.

For more information, see About Context grounding. Keep an eye out for future release notes to learn what comes next.
