Accessing and Using AI Agents on Mobile (iOS)

Using Egnyte AI Agents on Mobile

Egnyte AI Agents automate repetitive, time-consuming tasks by providing intelligent insights and content summaries. These agents are accessible for interaction directly through the Egnyte Android mobile app. 

Finding and Selecting an Agent

The AI section of the app serves as the primary hub for agent interaction. 

The Appropriate Agent For a Task Can Be Identified Using the Following Methods

1. Search and Filter: Specific agents can be located by name or by utilizing category filters:
   • All: Displays all available agents.
   • Created by Egnyte: Displays system-standard agents.
   • Created by me: Displays agents previously created via the Web UI.

   • Trending Now: Displays the most frequently used agents within the domain.

     

2. Quick Switch: A dropdown menu at the top of the AI Assistant screen allows for instant switching between different agents.

   

Interacting with an Agent 

Once an agent is selected, interaction begins by providing input to receive insights or automate tasks. The mobile interface supports several input and configuration options:

• Attaching Content: Typing @ displays a list of recently used files, allowing specific files to be included as context for the agent. Selecting View All Files opens the folder tree, enabling access to and selection of any files available to the user

  

• Input Methods: Requests can be submitted via Text, Voice Input, or by selecting from a list of Existing Prompts.

  

• Configuration: Depending on the agent's settings, the Source (Egnyte or Web) and the specific Model can be adjusted before submission. 
    

  Selection by the agent user may be restricted if disabled by the agent creator.

Managing Agent Responses

After a prompt is submitted, the agent generates a response based on the provided input and attached files.

• Sources and Citations: If a response includes references to specific documents or websites, the provided links grant direct access to those sources.
  
• Response Actions: The Copy button facilitates moving text to other applications, while the Thumbs Up/Down icons allow users to provide feedback on response quality.
  

Chat History and Session Management

The mobile interface includes tools to manage ongoing and past interactions:

• New Sessions: A new chat can be initiated from the same three-dot menu, allowing for a fresh start with the selected agent.
• Accessing History: The three-dot menu provides access to previous chat history.
  

Known Limitations

Creating and Editing Agents: Agent management, including creation and editing, is not supported on mobile devices. The Egnyte Web UI must be used to modify or create new agents.
