# Quick Start

Using Lumi AI starts with defining your first Knowledge Base -- the heart and source of truth for your requests throughout the application.

Creating a Knowledge Base involves:

## [1. Defining a connection to a source system](/setting-up/1.-connect.md)

Lumi AI requires a connection to load definitions and ultimately run queries against a target.

## [2. Configuring relevant context](/setting-up/configure-knowledge-base.md)

This is where you define tables, their fields, joins/relationships, and all other knowledge like metrics, aliases, and business details related to the Knowledge Base.

## [3. Inviting users and managing access](/setting-up/invite-users.md)

Once configured, invite others to use the newly built Knowledge Base and ask start asking questions, or to co-contribute/maintain it as it evolves.

With your first Knowledge Base complete, you're then ready to ask questions in Chat and build away in Boards! :tada:
