Bring AI answers to your GitBook knowledge base

What is GitBook?

GitBook is a collaborative documentation platform used by teams to write internal wikis, public knowledge bases, and API references. It publishes content as a hosted website with a clean reading experience.

Integration

How Kelu works with GitBook

Everything you can do once the integration is connected.

Space-level crawling

Kelu crawls your entire GitBook space, capturing every page including nested sub-pages and variant branches.

Scheduled re-sync

Configure a sync schedule (daily, weekly, or on-demand) so your Kelu index reflects the latest edits made in GitBook.

Internal and public spaces

Index public GitBook sites directly. For private spaces, use the GitBook API integration to pull content with authentication.

Citation links to exact pages

Answers include direct links to the GitBook page and heading anchor, making it easy for users to read the full context.

Setup

How to set it up

Create a Kelu knowledge base and add your GitBook space URL as a source. For private spaces, provide an API token in the source settings.

Run the first crawl. Kelu normalizes GitBook's page structure into clean markdown chunks ready for embedding.

Embed the Kelu widget on your GitBook site using the custom HTML injection in GitBook's settings, or share the portal link with your team.

GitBook — Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about connecting Kelu to GitBook.

Yes. For private GitBook spaces, provide a GitBook API token in your Kelu source settings. Kelu uses the token to authenticate and pull content, so the space does not need to be publicly accessible.

GitBook supports custom HTML injection in space settings. Paste the Kelu widget script tag there. The widget will appear as a chat launcher on every page of your GitBook space.

Yes. Kelu crawls your GitBook space and captures all pages including nested sub-pages. You can configure which variant or branch to index as the primary source in the Kelu dashboard.

You can configure a scheduled sync (daily or weekly) so Kelu re-indexes your GitBook space regularly. For more immediate updates, trigger a manual sync from the Kelu dashboard after major edits.

Yes. Every AI answer includes numbered citation links pointing to the exact GitBook page URL and, where possible, to the specific heading anchor — so readers can verify and read the full context in one click.
