Conversation AI Advanced Settings on GoHighLevel

This guide covers the setup of advanced bot settings in Conversation AI. These options let you fine-tune bot interactions by modifying response timing, message limits, and other essential behaviors. Adjusting these settings helps ensure a smooth, natural, and personalized experience for your customers.


Advanced Settings Overview

The advanced settings in Conversation AI allow you to customize your bot’s behavior. By adjusting these options, you can fine-tune its responses to align with your business’s specific needs while ensuring a seamless customer experience.

  • Wait Time Before Responding: Adjust the delay for responses to create a natural flow.
  • Maximum Message Limit: Set the cap for the number of bot messages per interaction.
  • Send Bot to Sleep: Temporarily disable the bot during manual interventions or workflows.



Business Name

The bot automatically fetches your business name from your account settings. This ensures consistent branding in all conversations without manual input.

Example Use Case

  • If your business name is “Tech Solutions,” the bot will include this name in interactions, maintaining a professional and personalized tone.



Wait Time Before Responding

Configure the delay before the bot replies to create a more natural conversational flow. This setting gives customers time to respond without feeling rushed.



Recommended Settings

  • Most businesses find that a wait time of 5-20 seconds works well.
  • Consider customer expectations and industry norms when setting delays.



Maximum Message Limit

This setting controls the maximum number of bot messages per interaction. If the limit is reached, the conversation can be reset to allow continued interaction.

Resetting Maximum Message Limit

Marking a conversation as “read” resets the message limit, giving the bot 10 more messages to send in that conversation.

  • For Example: If you have a message limit set to 10 messages, the Conversation AI bot will stop sending messages once it sends its 10th message in any given conversation. Marking the conversation as “read” will reset that limit, giving the bot 10 more messages to send in any conversation it’s reached it’s limit in.

Pro Tip: Use workflows to automate marking conversations as “read,” ensuring uninterrupted bot responses.




Send Bot to Sleep

The Send Bot to Sleep feature temporarily disables the bot during manual interventions or workflow-initiated actions. This ensures that the bot doesn’t interrupt ongoing conversations.



Scenarios for Using Sleep Mode:

  • A live agent is actively responding to a customer.
  • A workflow is executing a process that requires uninterrupted communication.



Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What happens if the wait time is too short or too long?

If too short, the bot may interrupt customers. If too long, the conversation may feel unresponsive. Test different timings to find the best fit.

Q: How do I troubleshoot the bot not responding?

Check if the bot is in sleep mode or if the message limit has been reached. Reset the conversation or adjust settings as needed.

Q: Can I customize bot responses for specific scenarios?

Yes, use prompts to tailor the bot’s replies. 

Q: How do workflows affect bot settings?

Workflows can automate actions like marking conversations as “read,” pausing the bot, or triggering specific responses.
