Managing Sources
Add, monitor, and remove sources from your episodes and podcasts.
Adding Sources
Sources attached in the Content Agent chat are episode-specific — they are included in the context for that episode only. Podcast-level sources are managed from the podcast settings page and are automatically included in every episode's context.
You can also reuse sources you've already uploaded by picking them from the Source Library — no need to re-upload the same file or URL.
See What Are Sources? and Podcast vs. Episode Sources for more on the difference.
Processing Status
After adding a source, Jellypod extracts and indexes the content before it is available to the AI. A source can be in one of three states:
- Processing: The source is being extracted. Wait for it to complete before generating content.
- Ready: The source is indexed and included in the AI context.
- Error: The source failed to extract. Common causes are a URL behind a paywall, an unsupported file format, or a YouTube video with no available transcript. Try a different URL or paste the text directly.
Removing Sources
Click the x next to any episode source in the chat to remove it. To remove podcast-level sources, go to the podcast settings page. Podcast-level sources cannot be removed from the chat view.
Refreshing a Source
If a source's content has changed, remove it and re-add the same URL. Jellypod will re-extract the latest version.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my source showing an error?
Common causes include the URL being behind a paywall or login wall, an unsupported file format, or a YouTube video with no available transcript. Try a different URL or paste the text directly instead.
How do I update a source when the original content has changed?
Remove the existing source and add the same URL again. Jellypod will re-extract the latest content from the page.
