In the pop-up window that opens, you will create your assistant in 5 easy steps.

c) Selecting Documentation​

  • Select the knowledge source your assistant will use by clicking the "Add" button.
  • This will be the information your assistant references when generating its answers.
  • On the information screen that opens, you can bring in files from documentation, a website, or other platforms. Visit the document-upload page for more detailed information.

d) Writing a Prompt​

  • Write a prompt describing how your assistant should behave, or use the ready-made prompt templates we have prepared for you.
  • You can use the ready-made prompt templates as follows:
  • Use the ready-made prompt option below the Prompt-Writing box.
  • Choose a template suited to your work and edit it. Tip: When writing your prompt, don't forget to specify your assistant's role, target audience, and communication style. You can review the guide at the link for the finer points of prompt writing. Move on to the next stage by clicking the "Next" button.

2. Conversation Settings​

Notes​

  • Write a description that briefly summarizes your assistant's purpose and capabilities. This helps users understand what your assistant can do.
  • If there are inputs your assistant is expected to receive from the user, you can specify them here. For example: The Google Ads Assistant creates ad copy and strategies suited to the goals of your ad campaign. "By uploading your existing ad data and campaign goals via file upload, you can ask the assistant to create custom Google Ads strategies for you."

Initial Suggested Prompts​

  • Add suggested starter commands to make it easier for users to begin interacting with the assistant. For example, "What is today's weather?" or "What is the latest news?"
  • You can add up to 3 initial suggested prompts.

Conversation Opener​

Determine how your assistant will greet users. For example, by adding an opening sentence such as "Hello! How can I help you?", you can have the assistant welcome the user.

Memory​

Enables the assistant to remember past conversations and provide more personalized responses based on previous interactions. This feature is ideal for long-term, contextual conversations.

Follow-up questions​

Determine whether or not you want your assistant to ask follow-up questions to deepen the conversation. This feature provides a richer and more interactive experience.

Quotes and Citations​

Enables the assistant to show which sources the information it provides is based on. This increases the reliability of the responses.

Speech to Text​

Enables users to communicate with the assistant using voice commands. This feature makes the assistant more accessible.

By carefully configuring these settings, you can optimize your assistant's user experience and ensure it works in the way most suited to your needs. Determine the most appropriate configuration by considering the effect of each setting on your assistant's performance.
