When to use
- Verifying where a piece of knowledge came from
- Auditing which conversations led to the creation of an entity
- Understanding how an entity’s profile was built up over time
- Tracing a specific fact back to its original conversation
If you’re unsure whether a fact in an entity’s dossier is accurate, use get_entity_provenance to trace it back to the original conversation where it was mentioned.
How provenance works
Every time BaseLayer’s dream engine distills a conversation into entities and facts, it records which conversation contributed which pieces of knowledge. The provenance log is a timeline of these contributions, letting you see the full history of how an entity was built.
