A citation gives you somewhere to look. It does not make an answer correct. Read the cited passage, check its scope and date, and decide whether it supports the claim.
Before you connect anything
Start with a source and a question.
01Authoritative source
Which document is current, and who keeps it accurate?
02Access and ownership
Who is permitted to use it? Who approves the configured source access?
03Supported question
What specific question does the material answer?
04Unsupported question
What should the system refuse because the material does not say?
Make the decision tangible
One source. Two very different results.
Fictional source and illustrative answers · no documents are uploaded, searched or sent to a model by this page.

Supplier onboarding note · fictional.
Passage
“For the pilot, the operations lead reviews each supplier record before it is added to the shared register.”
Source owner
Supplier operations lead. In a real setup, check the source’s date, version and permissions.
Supported question
Who reviews a supplier record during the pilot?
Illustrative answer
The operations lead reviews each supplier record before it is added to the shared register. [1]
Human check
The passage names that role and limits the statement to the pilot. It does not establish the later process.
Unsupported question
What is the annual supplier-review budget?
Illustrative refusal
No answer supported by the sources: this source does not state an annual budget.
Next step
Find an authorized source that answers the question, or ask its owner. Do not infer a budget from the review process.
A practical next step
Evaluate the answer, then keep useful context.
Choose permitted material
Agree source ownership, access and quality before configuring the knowledge workflow.
Test answer and refusal
Use a question supported by the material and one it does not answer. The existing Next guide describes this evaluation.
Check before retaining
Read the cited passage and record corrections. Decide with the source owner which context is useful to retain for subsequent work.
Where Odin fits
Connect the parts this work needs.
Choose the capabilities around the task. These are configured starting points, not an automatic bundle.
Sources, permissions and the knowledge workflow must be configured. Source quality and human review remain part of the process. Odin Next model endpoints are configured separately; a Gateway key does not by itself grant access.
Move forward with a clear question
Prepare a question worth testing.
The existing guide helps you collect the source, owner and supported and unsupported questions. It does not ingest your documents or create a workspace.
