Settings

overview the settings module is the central control panel for configuring your chatbot's global behavior, operational parameters, and core functionalities while the workflow module defines what the bot says, the settings module defines how the bot operates as a whole it allows you to customize everything from the bot's name and feedback mechanisms to enabling major solutions like livechat and exomind this section is divided into four main areas, each managing a different aspect of the bot's configuration bot settings this is where you manage the bot's identity, language settings, and core nlp behavior, such as masking confidential information and setting the confidence threshold for recognizing intents email settings configure automated email notifications to keep stakeholders informed about the bot's performance, api failures, or other critical events solution settings this area acts as a switchboard to enable or disable major, high level features like the exomind knowledge base search, livechat integration, and the ticket management system other settings a collection of miscellaneous but important configurations, including setting up customer satisfaction (csat) surveys, defining flow termination keywords, and managing profanity filters properly configuring these settings is crucial for ensuring your chatbot is effective, secure, and aligned with your business goals how to use settings this guide provides a step by step walkthrough of the key configurations available in each section of the settings module 1 navigating to settings log in to the exo chatbot console from the main navigation menu on the left, click on settings you will be presented with the four sub sections 2 configuring bot settings navigation settings > bot settings configuring basic information bot name in the "bot name" text field, enter the desired name for your chatbot go live date click on the date field next to "go live date" and select the appropriate date from the calendar enabling voice response locate the speak out bot response toggle switch click the toggle to enable or disable the text to speech functionality when enabled, a mute/unmute icon will appear in the bot interface for the end user configuring advanced nlp settings scroll down to the advance nlp configurations section first, enable the bot level advanced nlp configurations toggle this will reveal the "threshold" setting threshold this is a score between 0 and 1 that represents the bot's confidence level use the slider or input box to set the desired value (e g , 0 75) a user's query must match an intent with a confidence score higher than this threshold for the bot to trigger a direct response if the score is lower, the bot will likely provide suggestions or a failure message click save at the top of the page to apply all your changes 3 configuring solution settings navigation settings > solution settings navigating to solution settings log in to the exo chatbot console from the main navigation menu on the left, click on settings select the solution settings tab enabling core solutions on the solution settings page, you will see a list of toggles for the major features enable livechat functionality click the toggle to turn this feature on once enabled, additional options appear, such as autosuggest livechat for complex queries set a word limit if a user's query is longer than this limit, the bot will proactively offer to connect them to an agent suggest/trigger livechat for profanity words configure the bot to offer or initiate a live chat session if a user uses profane language enable pdf searcher / exomind click the toggle to activate the knowledge base feature you must then select exomind (beta) from the dropdown model list (for detailed instructions on building the knowledge base, refer to the exo insights documentation) enable ai agent (bot mandate) the enable ai agent setting allows you to activate the ai agent studio for your bot directly from the platform once enabled, the ai agent studio appears in the left navigation bar, allowing you to build genai powered conversational flows using natural language objectives and actions when enabled the ai agent studio becomes available for the bot and a default flow will be created user will have to update the prompts for the supervisor & sub goal nodes user queries are handled by ai agent flows only existing nlp flows will not respond but the existing flows are not removed important to allow the ai agent and nlp flows to work together, additional configuration (intent assist / orchestrator) needs to be enabled this will be available soon when disabled the ai agent studio is turned off for the bot the bot stops using ai agent flows to respond to users the bot will use existing nlp flows all ai agent flows are preserved in their last saved state and will be restored if re enabled later important detailed guidance on building and managing ai agent flows with nlp is available here how genai works with an nlp bot docid\ wmid88czdp0p40vtanldg \<font color="#0051a7"> beta \</font> enable ai intent assist (orchestrator) the ai intent assist setting improves nlp intent detection and how the bot understands user queries using ai it helps identify the closest matching intent when exact nlp matches are not found when enabled, the bot first attempts standard nlp intent matching, followed by ai assisted intent detection this reduces missed intents and improves accuracy for complex or ambiguous queries that cannot be identified using the nlp matching system note this setting can be enabled independently or used together with ai agent for advanced orchestration to learn more about how this works, please read through this document how genai works with an nlp bot docid\ wmid88czdp0p40vtanldg enable ticket management functionality click the toggle to allow the bot to create support tickets this functionality needs to be used with the appropriate actions in the flow builder to be effective 4 configuring email settings configuring scheduled email reports (profiles) enable the enable email notification toggle click on configure notifications this will open the

test email and verify its content and formatting configuring critical alerts the email settings page also allows you to configure instant alerts for specific events for api failures enable the enable email for api failure toggle and add the email addresses that should be notified immediately when a configured api call fails for bot breaks enable the enable email for bot break toggle this will send
