What the Chat Bot Needs
- An Opensolr Index on a Web Crawler server. Those are the servers with hybrid search; such an index has a WebCrawler tab in its Control Panel.
- A plan with AI. The chat writes its answers with the AI of your plan. Without it, the Chat Bot section says so and shows nothing else. See the plans.
- Your content in the index, with the Opensolr schema:
- the Web Crawler: add the address of your site, start the crawl, and every page, PDF and document it finds goes in the index;
- Data Ingestion: send your own records (products, articles, files).
Both fill the index with the fields of the Opensolr schema, which is what the chat reads. If you replace the schema of the index with your own, the Chat Bot still opens, with a warning at the top that it may not answer well.
Where to find it
- In the Control Panel, open your index.
- Click Chat Bot in the menu on the left, right under WebCrawler.
Every index has its own Chat Bot: its own embed code, settings, stats and history.
