Prompts Management in Ask

Users can use prompts while interacting on a specific document through Egnyte’s Ask feature. By using the clear instructions in the prompt, users can get quicker, more focused responses based on the document content.

Prompts for Ask are available only in the Web UI and not in the Desktop App.

Users can interact on a document using prompts and they can also view prompts using the View prompts option or from the icon in the input bar. There is an icon available for the prompts created by the users.

View and Insert Prompts

All the users can view prompts and use the desired prompt during their interaction. When the user initially interacts with a document or clicks on the New chat option, they will be presented with certain prompts. There is a View prompts option available to view all the available prompts and insert a prompt, as desired.  

If a user is already interacting with a document, they will have the View more prompts option in the input box available at all times.

There are three filter options available as:

  • Job Types: There are different options available, such as, Engineering, Customer Success, Finance, Marketing, etc.
  • Document Types: Narrow down the prompts by specific document type, such as financial statement, travel policy, Balance sheet, meeting minutes, etc.

Prompts are classified into different categories:

  • All (Default selection)
  • By Egnyte : By Egnyte prompts are the Egnyte seeded prompts available to the domain
  • Custom Prompts : Custom Prompts are the ones created by admin or power users within the domain
  • My Prompts : My Prompts are the ones which are created by the user themselves
  • Favorites : The ones marked as a favorite show up under Favorites
  • Trending Now : Trending Now includes the prompts which have been used 10 or more times recently. Based on the recent usage, top 5 prompts can be included under the Trending Now category

By default, all prompts are displayed to the user, sorted with new prompts first, followed by trending prompts, and then the remaining prompts in alphabetical order. All the new prompts can be identified by the New badge added to the prompts.
