# Draft an answer for a coverage gap

> Beta. A draft answer written only from the assistant’s own sources, with the passages it used, or a plain statement that your content does not say enough.

**Beta.** Asks the assistant the gap's question through its normal answer path: the same search of its knowledge bases, the same grounding and citation checks, and the same refusal to guess. Nothing is published and no conversation is created. A draft counts as one answer against your [monthly allowance](https://docs.mithunai.com/analyze/usage-and-limits.md). Requires the owner or admin role.

When the sources do not say enough, `outcome` is `insufficient_content` and `answer` is empty. That is the honest result, not an error: write the answer yourself and [publish it](https://docs.mithunai.com/api-reference/analytics/publish-doc-proposal.md), or add a source that covers it.

**assistant\_id** `string` *required*

The assistant whose knowledge bases the draft is written from (UUID). Another organization's
assistant returns `404`.

**question** `string` *required*

The gap's question, at most 500 characters.

## Response

**outcome** `string` *required*

`drafted`, or `insufficient_content`. Treat a value you do not recognise as
`insufficient_content`.

**answer** `string` *required*

The draft, without citation markers. Empty unless `drafted`.

**sources** `object[]` *required*

The passages the draft was written from: `title`, `url` (or `null`) and `snippet` (or `null`).
