The Context Graphs Manager is where Enterprise Context Graph opens: a table of every context graph in your workspace, with a button for starting a new one. From here you open a graph to build it out, or manage an existing graph's sharing, status, and lifecycle.

Overview

A context graph is the unified entity layer your agents reason on — node types (like Account, Contract, or Ticket), the edges connecting them, and the sources feeding real records in. Graphs live inside a project, so the manager opens within your current project. If the module isn't in your sidebar, ask your workspace admin — visibility depends on navigation setup.

Reading the graphs list

Graphs appear as rows in a table — there's no card or grid view. The columns are:

  • Graph — the graph's name.

  • Status — Draft or Live.

  • Version — how many times the graph's contents have changed.

  • Nodes, Edges, and Sources — counts for each.

  • Shared with — Everyone, Only me, a group's name, or a combined count of users and groups.

  • Owner and Last Updated.

Search by name, or sort by the Graph or Last Updated headers; the list loads more rows as you scroll. The toolbar adds a refresh button, Filter and Sort menus, and a columns menu revealing two hidden columns — created time and last-modified-by. There's no ready-made status filter, so build one in Filter if needed. Treat "Everyone" in Shared with cautiously — it also shows while sharing data is still loading. Click a row to open it; rows preload on hover for a fast open. An empty workspace shows "No graphs yet."

Creating a graph

Select Create New Graph. Enter a Graph name and a short Description (it appears on the graph's card), then choose a starting point:

  • Start blank — an empty canvas where you add node types and edges yourself.

  • Choose from template — begin from a curated blueprint and customize it.

A template opens a searchable gallery with industry and function filters, and each template lists the node types it creates. Confirming a template, or creating a blank graph, lands you on the new graph's detail page.

Draft and Live status

Every graph starts as Draft. Publishing flips it to Live, and it stays Live — there's no unpublish; publishing again just takes a fresh snapshot. A partial-publish failure returns the graph to Draft automatically.

Publishing and what Version means

The Publish button, in a graph's header, marks it Live and snapshots the schema — node types and edges — stamped with the current version. Records aren't part of the snapshot; they keep flowing in as sources sync, published or not. Publishing a source (which starts its sync) is separate from publishing the graph — do both for a graph that's fully live.

The Version column is a change counter, not a release count: it rises with every added, edited, or removed node, edge, or source. Publishing doesn't increase it — a snapshot just records the version it was taken at.

Edit, share, and delete a graph

Open a row's menu to find Edit, Share, and Delete:

  • Edit renames the graph and updates its description — it can't touch status, counts, or sharing.

  • Share opens the same dialog as the graph header: search for people, teams, or application users to add, then assign each a role. Revoke access from their role dropdown.

  • Delete asks you to confirm, then removes everything — schema, sources and their published snapshots, edges, node types, and records. You need delete access to the graph and every connected source, or it's refused.

Notes

  • Publish, Share, and Delete stay clickable regardless of permissions — errors appear only if you act without access.

  • Node record counts refresh roughly every two minutes and can lag briefly; list-level Nodes, Edges, and Sources counts update immediately.

  • There's no duplicate, archive, or pause action — deleting is the only way to remove a graph.

  • Most create, edit, and delete actions finish silently — only Publish confirms.
