This feature is currently available as a Public Preview only

During a Public Preview, only eligible customers can access this feature. Additionally, there may be minor updates to the functionality and design of these features when they are released in General Availability.

The Tool Activation section is used to select which tools can be used by this Process Copilot to perform its intended task. Each tool has different inputs and methods used for configuration. Depending on the tool, you can create a custom configuration by manually entering the settings, allow the tool to be customized dynamically based on the questions asked, or create a custom configuration using the YAML editor.

Warning

Only select the tools that are required for your use case. Selecting too many tools can lead to your Process Copilot being less accurate with its responses.

Once tools have been added to your Process Copilot, they can be deactivated using the toggle switch. Deactivating a tool means that it will not be used when generating responses, but they can be reactivated at any time without having to be configured again.

Configure tools using the UI
  1. Click the Tool Activation section to expand it.

  4. Based on the selected tool, you will need to choose a configuration option: either Intelligent Configuration or Custom Configuration or click the Go to YAML Editor button.

    Note

    The configuration options available will vary by tool. The settings available within a Custom Configuration option or when configuring using the YAML editor will vary based on the selected tool.

  6. Repeat these steps to add more tools for your Process Copilot to utilize.

    Note

    If you try to add a tool that has already been added to this Process Copilot, a warning message will display at the bottom of the Add Tool screen.

  7. Once tools have been added, you can choose to deactivate a tool using the toggle switch for that tool. Deactivating a tool means that this Process Copilot will not be able to use this tool when generating responses.

    Note

    If a tool is deleted from a Process Copilot configuration, it can be added again but will need to be configured. To remove a tool temporarily, use the toggle switch to deactivate it.

  9. Once your tools have been added, you can now define the intended task of this Process Copilot in the System Prompt section.
