Add Memory

Overview

Hyperspell allows you to build AI applications that can reference and learn from your own data. Memories are the core mechanism for storing and indexing documents within a Sandbox—a dedicated workspace for developing and testing AI features. By adding memories, you expand the knowledge base that your AI models can access and reason over. This workflow guides you through creating a single memory entry, which can be any form of text content relevant to your use case.

Before you begin

  • You must have an active Hyperspell account and be logged in to app.hyperspell.com
  • You must have access to at least one Sandbox environment (created during initial account setup)
  • You should have the content ready that you want to store as a memory (e.g., a document, transcript, or text snippet)

Step by step

1
ClickSandbox

Select the Sandbox workspace where you want to add the memory by clicking on the Sandbox option from the available list. This ensures your memory is stored in the correct project environment.

Tip. If you have multiple Sandboxes, choose the one corresponding to your active project or use case.
Step 1
2
ClickAdd Memory

Navigate to the 'Add Memory' tab to open the memory creation interface. This tab contains the form where you will enter your memory details.

Step 2
3
Clickgeneric

Click on the generic element (the form area) to activate the memory entry form and prepare it for input. This ensures the form is ready to receive your data.

Step 3
4
TypeMemory name (optional)

Enter a name for your memory in the 'Memory name (optional)' field. While optional, a descriptive name helps you identify and organize memories later (e.g., 'Q3 Sales Call', 'Customer Feedback Summary').

Tip. Use clear, concise names that describe the memory's content or purpose. This makes it easier to find and reference the memory later.
5
ClickBody

Click on the 'Body' text field to focus it, which prepares the field to receive your main content. This is where you'll paste or type the actual document or text you want to store.

Step 5
6
TypeBody

Type or paste the full content of your memory into the 'Body' field. This can be any text content such as call transcripts, emails, documents, notes, or structured data that you want your AI applications to reference.

Tip. For large documents, you can copy and paste directly from other applications. Consider breaking very large documents into multiple focused memories for better AI performance.
7
ClickAdd Memory

Click the 'Add Memory' button to save and index your memory within the Sandbox. This action commits the memory to your workspace and makes it available for use by your AI applications.

Tip. After clicking, wait a moment for the page to update and confirm the memory has been added to your list.
Warning. Once submitted, the memory is immediately indexed. If you need to revise the content, you may need to delete and recreate it, or check the documentation for editing options.
Step 7

Confirm it worked

  1. 1After clicking 'Add Memory' button, the new memory appears in your Sandbox's memory list
  2. 2The memory displays with the name and body content you entered
  3. 3You can see the memory indexed and available for use by AI applications within that Sandbox
