Your own AI applications

Besides the published applications, you can build AI applications of your own: you name the application, choose its model, write the fields it asks for and the instruction it follows, then activate it to run it. Your applications belong to your workspace: nobody else sees or changes them. Start from the My applications tab of Shop AI, under AI in the main menu.

Note — Your plan sets how many applications you can create. The number shows at the bottom of the creation form, next to the name of your plan.

Create an application

  1. Open the main menu and, under AI, click Shop AI, then the My applications tab.
  2. Click Create an application.
  3. Enter the Name and the Description of the application.
  4. Under Model, choose the Model and the Task.
  5. Under First input, choose the Input type (Short text or Long text) and enter the Input name.
  6. Under First instruction, choose the Instruction type and write the Instruction.
  7. Click Create.

The message Your application is created as a draft. Open it to activate it. appears. Click Open the application to go on.

Note — Every field of the form is required. If the message This model cannot do this task on your plan. Choose another model or task. appears, change the Model or the Task.

Add or change the fields of the run form

Each input is a field of the form shown when the application is run; its answer is sent to the model with the instructions.

  1. On My applications, click Open in the row of the application.
  2. Click the Inputs tab. Each input shows its Type, whether it is Required or Optional, and its example text.
  3. Click Add an input, or Edit the input next to an input.
  4. Enter the Input name, choose the Type (Short text, Long text, Number or E-mail address), and optionally an Example text (optional).
  5. In Required, choose Yes or No.
  6. Click Add (or Save).

The message The input is added. (or Your changes are saved.) appears.

To remove an input, click Delete the input next to it, then Delete. Past runs keep the answers they were given.

Note — Two inputs of one application cannot have the same name, and an application always keeps at least one required input: its last required input cannot be deleted or made optional.

Add or change the instructions

Each instruction asks the model for one answer, in the format you choose.

  1. Open the application and click the Instructions tab. Each instruction shows its Answer format and its Instruction text.
  2. Click Add an instruction, or Edit next to an instruction.
  3. Choose the Answer format (Text, Number, List of items, Score out of 10, Percentage or Image) and write the Instruction text.
  4. Click Add (or Save).

The message The instruction is added. (or Your changes are saved.) appears. To remove an instruction, click Delete next to it, then Delete: its last instruction can't be deleted, and past runs keep the answers they were given.

Change the model variant

  1. Open the application and click the Model tab. It shows the Model of the application: its Variant, Model, Maker, Task, Plan and what it reads.
  2. Click Change the variant.
  3. In New variant, choose a variant. Only the variants your plan includes and that can do the task of the application are offered.
  4. Click Save.

The message Your changes are saved. appears.

  1. Open the application and click the Settings tab, then Change the logo.
  2. In Logo image, pick one of the images of your project, or leave the field empty to show the first letter of the name.
  3. Click Save.

The message The logo is saved. appears. The Settings tab also shows the application's Visibility: a private application is used by your project only; to offer it in the catalogue, ask the team. The Knowledge tab lists the texts, links and files the application draws on.

Activate an application

A new application is a draft that only you see. Activate it to run it.

  1. Open the application. On the Overview tab, click Activate.
  2. Click Activate to confirm.

The message Your application is active: you can run it now. appears.

Important — An application needs at least one instruction and one required input to run. Check them first: each run uses tokens of your plan.

Run your application

  1. Open the application and, in the Application box, click Run.
  2. Fill in the fields, then click Run.

The answer shows on the same page, as for a published application (see AI applications).

Rename an application

  1. Open the application and click Edit.
  2. Change the Name or the Description.
  3. Click Save.

The message Your changes are saved. appears.

Delete an application

  1. Open the application and click Delete.
  2. Click Delete to confirm.

The message Your application is deleted. appears. The application leaves your list and can no longer be run; its past runs stay in your history, and it no longer counts in the number of applications of your plan.
