This is useful when you've updated your knowledge sources and want to ensure that the agents are using the most recent information. This is useful when you've updated your knowledge sources and want to ensure that the agents are using the most recent information.
## Agent-Specific Knowledge
While knowledge can be provided at the crew level using `crew.knowledge_sources`, individual agents can also have their own knowledge sources using the `knowledge_sources` parameter:
```python Code
from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew
from crewai.knowledge.source.string_knowledge_source import StringKnowledgeSource
# Create agent-specific knowledge about a product
product_specs = StringKnowledgeSource(
content="""The XPS 13 laptop features:
- 13.4-inch 4K display
- Intel Core i7 processor
- 16GB RAM
- 512GB SSD storage
- 12-hour battery life""",
metadata={"category": "product_specs"}
)
# Create a support agent with product knowledge
support_agent = Agent(
role="Technical Support Specialist",
goal="Provide accurate product information and support.",
backstory="You are an expert on our laptop products and specifications.",
knowledge_sources=[product_specs] # Agent-specific knowledge
)
# Create a task that requires product knowledge
support_task = Task(
description="Answer this customer question: {question}",
agent=support_agent
)
# Create and run the crew
crew = Crew(
agents=[support_agent],
tasks=[support_task]
)
# Get answer about the laptop's specifications
result = crew.kickoff(
inputs={"question": "What is the storage capacity of the XPS 13?"}
)
```
<Info>
Benefits of agent-specific knowledge:
- Give agents specialized information for their roles
- Maintain separation of concerns between agents
- Combine with crew-level knowledge for layered information access

CrewAI allows you to create custom knowledge sources for any type of data by extending the `BaseKnowledgeSource` class. Let's create a practical example that fetches and processes space news articles.
