Why Mistral Le Chat Matters for Developer Relations
Developers ask Mistral Le Chat how to do things before they open your docs, and it answers from Mistral's search index, built by MistralAI-Index. If your documentation is not reachable or not quotable, Mistral Le Chat explains a competitor's API instead. For DevRel, that makes docs access and structure part of adoption, not just support.
The Mistral Le Chat Mistake to Avoid
Confusing MistralAI-Training with MistralAI-Index. MistralAI-Training only collects training data, while MistralAI-Index decides whether pages can appear in Mistral Le Chat answers. Blocking the wrong one either removes you from answers or leaves training access open when you meant to close it.

Frequently Asked Questions
How can DevRel get Mistral Le Chat to reference our docs?
Make the docs reachable (allow MistralAI-Index and MistralAI-User, including on a docs subdomain), then make each task page answer one task with a correct example near the top. Mistral Le Chat can only quote what it can fetch and parse.
Why does Mistral Le Chat suggest an old version of our API?
Older docs, blog posts or forum answers are still public and compete with current pages. Label the current version clearly, redirect or mark retired pages, and put the current example first.
