Important Notes:

  • You need to invite your Slack bot to start a conversation about creating a Slack AI chatbot:

 1. Either you can mention (@LiveChatAI) LiveChatAI to the channel/conversation you want to add,

 2. Or you can click the "Add Member" section from the right top of the channel, click on the Integration tab, and find LiveChatAI from the list.

  • You have the option to utilize the /askai command for assistance whenever needed. Feel free to engage in further inquiries in the same Slack thread, initiating a dialogue with your AskAI for detailed responses.

  • Your Slack bot is designed not to browse through your Slack history. However, if you export data from Slack and upload it in a compatible content format, the bot can then access this information.
