How to Set Up Conversation AI for Live Chat
Step 1: Access Your Workflow
Navigate to your FIOHS dashboard and open the account where you want to set up the Conversation AI.
Go to the "Automation" section and create a new workflow or edit an existing one.
Step 2: Configure the Trigger
Set up the workflow trigger, such as a customer reply or a new live chat message.
Under the trigger settings, select "Live Chat" as the reply channel to activate Conversation AI whenever a customer initiates a chat.
Step 3: Add the Conversation AI Step
Click on the “+” button to add a new action in the workflow.
From the Actions menu, select "Conversation AI."
Customize the initial question that the AI will ask, such as “Thanks for reaching out! What can we help you with today?”
Step 4: Set Up Advanced Configurations
Adjust the bot settings if needed, including response timeouts and channel preferences.
Ensure that "Live Chat" is selected as the channel for the AI to engage through live chat.
Step 5: Define Branches for Different Queries
Create branches based on keywords or phrases commonly used by customers. For example, set up branches for “Repairs,” “New Installations,” or other services.
Each branch can trigger specific responses and actions, such as assigning the conversation to a relevant team member or sending a notification to your team.
Step 6: Test Your Setup
Save your workflow and perform a test by initiating a live chat.
Check if the Conversation AI responds as configured and that it routes inquiries correctly based on the set conditions.
