Connecting Content Sources

Automatically sync content from external platforms into your Panacea knowledge base.

3 min read428 words

Sources let you connect external content platforms so that your wiki stays in sync automatically — without manual ingestion each time content changes. Content sources require the Growth plan or above.

Opening Sources

Click Sources in the left sidebar. You'll see a list of all connected integrations and their sync status.

Source statuses

Status Meaning
active The source is connected and syncing normally
paused Syncing is temporarily paused (manually paused or rate-limited)
error The last sync failed — check the error message and reconnect if needed
deleting The source is being removed

Adding a source

  1. Click Add source.
  2. Select the source type from the list of available integrations.
  3. Follow the authentication steps for that integration.
  4. Set a sync schedule: manual, hourly, daily, or weekly.
  5. Click Connect.

The source will perform an initial full sync immediately after connection.

Supported source types

Airdraft CMS

Sync content directly from your Airdraft CMS collections. Airdraft is Panacea's native CMS — if you're writing documentation, guides, or blog posts in Airdraft, connecting it as a source keeps your wiki automatically updated whenever you publish.

Setup: Provide your Airdraft project API key and select which collections to sync.

Web URLs / Sitemaps

Provide a sitemap URL and Panacea crawls all listed pages on your sync schedule. Ideal for documentation sites built with tools like Docusaurus, GitBook, or ReadMe.

GitHub

Sync Markdown files from a GitHub repository. Useful for teams that maintain documentation in a docs/ folder alongside their code.

Setup: Authenticate with GitHub, select a repository and branch, and specify the directory to watch.

Manual sync

You can trigger an on-demand sync for any source at any time:

  1. Find the source in the list.
  2. Click Sync now.
  3. The sync runs immediately and the last sync date updates when complete.

Deleting a source

  1. Click the source name to open its detail view.
  2. Click Delete and confirm.

Note: Deleting a source does not delete the wiki entries that were created from it. Those entries remain in your wiki. Delete them manually from the Wiki page if needed.

Sync conflicts

If a source sync creates content that overlaps with an existing wiki entry (e.g. an updated version of a page you previously ingested manually), the system creates a Review queue proposal rather than overwriting the entry automatically. This ensures you have a chance to review the change before it goes live.
