Does Dify make newly added source content findable?

Dify made newly added source content findable after the update path completed. The new document was created through the ingestion endpoint, indexing reached completed before retrieval, and the retrieval call returned that same document first; two additional segments also pointed to it.

The test case

Each test case is judged on its own: Pass, Fail, Not gradable, or Untested. The scenario result above is based on this test case.

What we sent

“When does the Tromso depot open?”

What the tool returned

Depot bulletin - a new depot in the region For the service desk, the Bergen depot and central stores. What is opening The Tromso depot opens on 14 October 2026 and will hold four Tolvan C5 loan units and a full Brannoc spares kit. It is the third depot in the network and the first above the Arctic Circle.

Why this result

The product had to make newly added content findable once indexing finished. The document was created, indexing completed before the query, and retrieval returned that document first with the opening fact, so the case passes.

Also observed in this test case

Extra matching segments. The added document also supplied two more strong matches, and the best other document scored lower.

API surface confirmed. The upload response said it came from the API, matching the request path.

How this scenario is graded

How we decide Pass, Fail and Not gradable. The same rules apply to every tool tested on this scenario.

How results are decided

Each test case gets one result per tool: Pass, Fail or Not gradable. A test case we haven't run yet shows Untested. There are no partial results.

The rules
  • Pass: the tool did everything the test expected, and nothing it said contradicts the correct answer.
  • Fail: at least one expected behaviour clearly didn't happen; the test case's result says which one and quotes the tool.
  • Not gradable: our evidence couldn't settle the outcome (for example a record we needed is missing). It is never counted as a fail, and the test case's result says what's missing.

Act on this result

Nothing filed here edits the run or the grade. A challenge opens a review, and a review can produce a new run or a re-grade — which becomes the current result and leaves this one in the history.

This matches what I see

You run the same kind of test against your own setup and get the same behaviour.
