  3. Expand the Conversation Behavior section and make the following selections:

    • Initial message displayed when the AI Agent starts a chat with the user: Enable this setting to configure the greeting message shown when the AI agent starts a chat with a user. You can choose between Static and Dynamic greeting options.

      • Static Greeting: Provide a fixed greeting message that is displayed the first time the user is greeted by the AI agent.
      • Dynamic Greeting: Provide instructions that prompt the AI agent to adapt the greeting based on context, enabling a more personalized user experience.
    • Defines the style or voice of your AI Agent’s responses: From the dropdown select one of the available styles for your AI Agent: Professional, Casual, or Friendly.

    • Display message when AI Agent cannot answer: From this field, you can edit the message the AI Agent sends if the AI Agent cannot answer the customer's query.

    • Topic Identification: Click the Toggle to disable the guardrail that performs topic identification prior to a response. When this guardrail is disabled, the AI agent will no longer restrict responses based on the topics it was trained or configured to handle, and may attempt to generate an answer even for questions outside its intended scope.

    • Additional instructions: Enter additional instructions to improve the quality of responses by providing additional background about your business. 

    • Certified Answers: Enable this setting to allow the AI agent to first check for a matching Certified Answer before generating a response using content from your configured eGain Knowledge Hub.
      For this to work, the AI agent must be trained on the Knowledge Hub portal that contains articles with associated questions added to them.

    • Threshold Score: This setting is enabled only when you enable certified answers. Enable this setting to define how closely a user’s question must match the questions defined in the Knowledge Hub articles for the AI agent to consider it a valid match.
      The default Threshold Score is 0.75.
      As the Threshold Score is increased closer to 0.99 (range: 0–0.99), the AI agent requires a higher similarity between the user’s question and the questions in the Knowledge Hub articles, resulting in more precise and narrowly matched responses.

    • Disable the reply section when options are displayed: Enable this setting to disable the reply area when the AI agent displays selectable options. The reply area remains disabled until the user makes a selection.

  4. Expand the Embed section, and make the following configurations:

    • Please note that all domains are allowed by default.
