## FAQs

**Q: What is Daily Content Sync?**

A: Daily Content Sync is a feature that automatically re-imports content from a connected external data source every 24 hours, so your knowledge base stays current with the source system.

**Q: How do I enable Daily Content Sync?**

A: When you first connect a source, toggle **Enable daily sync** during setup and click **+ Add Source**. To enable sync on an existing source, open its card, click the gear icon (Edit Configuration), toggle **Enable daily sync**, and click **Save Changes**.

**Q: Can I disable Daily Content Sync later?**

A: Yes. Open the source's card, click the gear icon (Edit Configuration), toggle **Enable daily sync** off, and click **Save Changes**.

**Q: Is there a limit to the number of sources I can sync?**

A: There's no hard limit on the number of connected sources. Some integrations have rate limits set by the source platform — see the per-source guides (Zendesk, Notion, etc.) for specifics.

**Q: What happens if I change the configuration of an existing source?**

A: Changing the source name, scope, or credentials doesn't affect sync state. If sync was enabled, it stays enabled. If you change to credentials that no longer have access, the next sync will fail and you'll see an error on the source's card.

**Q: When does the daily sync run?**

A: Daily syncs run at **2:00 AM UTC**.
