## 5 Set Up Document Grounding
The document grounding capability uses information gathered from documents that you upload to the service and the SAP Help Portal to add context to Joule answers. To make this optional capability available, first complete the integration steps between Joule and the SAP solution that you want to use to consume Joule. Then, set up document grounding as described here.
## Prerequisites
Before triggering the setup process, make sure that you've done the following for your global account and subaccount:
- You've purchased the AI Unit SKU (8019164) and AI units. After you've done so, the entitlements for document grounding are automatically added to your global account. For more information, contact your account executive.
- You've added the entitlements for document grounding to the subaccount where you've subscribed to Joule. For more information, see Managing Entitlements and Quotas Using the Cockpit.
- You've enabled Identity Authentication. For more information, see What Are Cloud Identity Services?.

##  Caution
The document grounding capability has no mechanism for determining the type of data that it processes. The capability therefore can't determine whether this data includes personal data, which is subject to the data protection laws applicable in specific countries/regions.
Any ingested documents are available to all Joule business users in the given Joule tenant. We therefore recommend that you don't expose confidential or other privileged documents.
##  Note
For now, the response from Joule doesn't take context information into consideration, for example, user location and user permission.
The setup process involves the following steps:
- Configure User Authentication [page 108]
- Set Up Data Repository Integration [page 111]
- Configure Access from SAP BTP [page 112]
- Set Up Content Ingestion [page 114]
