Icon, Name, and Description
Short descriptive information to identify the assistant and describe how it works to other users.Input Type
Prompt (Default)
There are two ways to send user input to your assistant. The first is the chat input field you already know from normal chat. This lets you send any message to the assistant and receive a response. You can set conversation starters, which are saved prompts users can click instead of writing the first message. These help guide users and reduce the effort needed to get started.Form
The other input type is the form input field. Forms collect information in a structured way, similar to a survey tool. This helps guide users to understand how much context is necessary for a quality response and collects it in a standardized format that the model can process more easily.Instructions
Describe what you want to achieve with this assistant and define clear instructions. Include as many relevant details and background information as possible. This enables the assistant to answer better and more closely to your expectations. Check out our assistant creation guide and our prompting guide for more details.Knowledge
Attach knowledge and files to your assistant. You can either upload files from your computer or attach files from the integrations to the assistant.Actions
Actions are capabilities you can give to your assistant. These can be capabilities of the chat, like web search, image generation, or data analysis. But it can also be requests the assistant can send to other tools you use, to e.g. create an email draft, update an entry in your CRM or create a support ticket in your ticketing systems.
