🧠 Enterprise RAG System with Google Gemini File Search + Retell AI Voice Agent

Build a complete enterprise-grade RAG pipeline using Google Gemini’s brand-new File Search API, combined with a powerful Retell AI voice agent (JARVIS) as the conversational front end.
This workflow is designed for AI automation agencies, SMBs, enterprise teams, and internal AI copilots.


πŸ“Œ Who Is This For?

  • Enterprise teams building internal search copilots
  • AI automation agencies delivering RAG products to clients
  • SMBs wanting automated knowledge lookup
  • Anyone needing a production-ready, zero-Pinecone RAG workflow

🚧 Problem This Solves

Traditional RAG requires:

  • Vector DB setup
  • Embedding jobs
  • Chunking pipelines
  • Custom search APIs

Gemini File Search eliminates all of this β€” you simply create a store and upload files.
Indexing, chunking, embeddings = fully automated.

This workflow turns that into a plug-and-play enterprise template.


🧩 What This Workflow Does (High-Level)

1️⃣ Create a Gemini File Search Store

  • Calls fileSearchStores API
  • Creates a persistent embedding store
  • Automatically saved to Google Sheets for future retrieval

2️⃣ Auto-Upload Documents from Google Drive

When a new file is added:

  • Download β†’ Start resumable upload β†’ Upload actual bytes
  • Gemini auto-indexes the document for retrieval

3️⃣ Chat-Based Retrieval (Chat Trigger)

User question β†’ Gemini File Search β†’ Short, precise answer returned.

4️⃣ Voice Search (Retell AI Agent)

Your Gemini RAG can now be searched by voice.


πŸŽ™οΈ Retell AI (JARVIS) Voice Agent – Integration Steps

πŸ”§ Step 1 β€” Paste This Prompt Into Retell AI

You are JARVIS, an advanced AI assistant designed to help user with their daily tasks. Always call the user β€œSir”.

You remember the user's name and important details to improve the experience.

Whenever the user asks for information that requires external lookup:

Make a short, witty remark related to their request.

Immediately call the n8n tool β€” do NOT repeat the question back.

Be concise, professional, and efficient.

n8n tool call: Use this tool for all knowledge-based or RAG lookups. It sends the user’s query to the n8n workflow.

JSON Schema: { "type": "object", "properties": { "query": { "type": "string", "description": "The user’s full request for JARVIS to process." } }, "required": ["query"] }


πŸ”§ Step 2 β€” Add This URL to Retell (YOUR WEBHOOK)

Paste the webhook URL from your Respond to Webhook node:

https://YOUR-N8N-URL/webhook/Gemini ← replace with your actual webhook ID

This is the endpoint Retell calls every time the user speaks.


πŸ”§ Step 3 β€” End-to-End Flow

  1. User speaks to JARVIS
  2. Retell sends query β†’ n8n
  3. n8n forwards query to Gemini using File Search
  4. Gemini returns answer
  5. Retell speaks the response out loud

You now have a voice-powered enterprise RAG agent.


πŸ“¦ Requirements

  • Google Gemini File Search API access
  • Google Drive folder for document uploads
  • Retell AI agent
  • n8n instance
  • (Optional) Google Sheets for storing store IDs

πŸ“ Estimated Setup Time

⏱️ 25–30 minutes (end-to-end)

πŸŽ“ How to transform unstructured email data into structured format with AI agent

This workflow automates the process of extracting structured, usable information from unstructured email messages across multiple platforms. It connects directly to Gmail, Outlook, and IMAP accounts, retrieves incoming emails, and sends their content to an AI-powered parsing agent built on OpenAI GPT models. The AI agent analyzes each email, identifies relevant details, and returns a clean JSON structure containing key fields: From – sender’s email address To – recipient’s email address Subject – email subject line Summary – short AI-generated summary of the email body The extracted information is then automatically inserted into an n8n Data Table, creating a structured database of email metadata and summaries ready for indexing, reporting, or integration with other tools. --- Key Benefits βœ… Full Automation: Eliminates manual reading and data entry from incoming emails. βœ… Multi-Source Integration: Handles data from different email providers seamlessly. βœ… AI-Driven Accuracy: Uses advanced language models to interpret complex or unformatted content. βœ… Structured Storage: Creates a standardized, query-ready dataset from previously unstructured text. βœ… Time Efficiency: Processes emails in real time, improving productivity and response speed. *βœ… Scalability: Easily extendable to handle additional sources or extract more data fields. --- How it works This workflow automates the transformation of unstructured email data into a structured, queryable format. It operates through a series of connected steps: Email Triggering: The workflow is initiated by one of three different email triggers (Gmail, Microsoft Outlook, or a generic IMAP account), which constantly monitor for new incoming emails. AI-Powered Parsing & Structuring: When a new email is detected, its raw, unstructured content is passed to a central "Parsing Agent." This agent uses a specified OpenAI language model to intelligently analyze the email text. Data Extraction & Standardization: Following a predefined system prompt, the AI agent extracts key information from the email, such as the sender, recipient, subject, and a generated summary. It then forces the output into a strict JSON structure using a "Structured Output Parser" node, ensuring data consistency. Data Storage: Finally, the clean, structured data (the from, to, subject, and summarize fields) is inserted as a new row into a specified n8n Data Table, creating a searchable and reportable database of email information. --- Set up steps To implement this workflow, follow these configuration steps: Prepare the Data Table: Create a new Data Table within n8n. Define the columns with the following names and string type: From, To, Subject, and Summary. Configure Email Credentials: Set up the credential connections for the email services you wish to use (Gmail OAuth2, Microsoft Outlook OAuth2, and/or IMAP). Ensure the accounts have the necessary permissions to read emails. Configure AI Model Credentials: Set up the OpenAI API credential with a valid API key. The workflow is configured to use the model, but this can be changed in the respective nodes if needed. Connect the Nodes: The workflow canvas is already correctly wired. Visually confirm that the email triggers are connected to the "Parsing Agent," which is connected to the "Insert row" (Data Table) node. Also, ensure the "OpenAI Chat Model" and "Structured Output Parser" are connected to the "Parsing Agent" as its AI model and output parser, respectively. Activate the Workflow: Save the workflow and toggle the "Active" switch to ON. The triggers will begin polling for new emails according to their schedule (e.g., every minute), and the automation will start processing incoming messages. --- Need help customizing?
