Introducing the new “Conversation AI” Action in workflows. Key Features:
Create this action to ask a question to a contact
Make branches for conditional flow based on the contact’s reply
Customize Personality and Additional Instructions for the bot
Utilize the same bot training done for the Conversation AI Bot
Question for the Contact
This is the primary question the bot will present to the customer. It will be asked in conjunction with responding to an inbound message from a contact, if one is available.
Branches and Conditions
Each action generates two default branches, with the flexibility to add additional branches as needed.
Standard Branches:
Time Out – The contact does not reply back in the time specified in the action
No Condition Met – The contact replied within the timeout period but no condition was met
New Branches:
Each Branch needs to have a Name and a Condition based on which the contact will go down that branch
Prompt – Personality and Additional Instructions
The “Advanced Bot Configuration” toggle allows you to view and personalize the AI Bot’s “Personality” and “Additional Instruction” settings for the conversation.
The Prompt is generated by combining:
“Personality”
“Additional Instruction”
Question for the contact
Context from the Bot Training done for the Conversation AI Bot
Previous Conversation between the sub-account and the contact
Channel
Choose one channel from SMS, FB, and IG where the bot sends the message to the contact
Mechanism of the Conversation AI Action
After setting up the “Conversation AI” Action, here’s what happens when a contact reaches this step in the process:
The prompt is generated and the message is sent from the conversation AI bot to the contact (if required the context for the bot is available from the “Bot Training” in the conversation AI Bot sub-account settings)
The bot now waits for a reply from the contact for the time configured in the action
If the contact fails to reply within the time period, it goes down the “Time-Out” branch (use this branch to create followups)
Once the contact replies within the time period, the bot then checks which condition is met from the contact’s reply from the bot and if no condition is met, the contact goes down the “No condition Met” branch (use the “GOTO” actions to ask the questions
If a condition is met, the contact goes down that respective branch
