# Quick Start

### 1. Create your first agent

1. Go to **Agents → Create Agent**.
2. Fill in the basic details:
   * **Name**: A clear, user‑friendly name (for example, “Sales Assistant” or “Support Bot”).​
   * **Agent Image** and **Image Description** (optional): Visual and short persona for your agent.​
   * **Welcome Message**: The first message users see when they open a chat.​
3. Choose how the agent thinks:
   * **Provider**: Select the AI model provider from the dropdown.
   * **Temperature**: Lower for precise, factual answers; higher for more creative responses.
   * **Always On RAG Search**: Turn on if you want the agent to always look up answers in its Knowledge Base.
4. Click **Create** to save the agent.​

Your new agent now appears in the **Agents** list, where you can search for it and open **Manage Agent** to configure it further.​

### 2. Create a Knowledge Base

1. Go to **Knowledge Bases → Create / Edit Knowledge Base**.​
2. Enter:
   * **Title**\*: A descriptive name for the Knowledge Base (for example, “Product Docs” or “Instagram Library”).​
   * **Description**\*: A short explanation of what content it contains and how it should be used.​
3. Click **Save**.​

Now you have an empty Knowledge Base ready for content.​

### 3. Add knowledge from documents and Instagram

1. In your Knowledge Base, click **Add Knowledge Resources**.​
2. Choose the type of content you want to import:
   * **Document**
     * Upload or connect files such as manuals, FAQs, guides, or reports.​
     * These documents become searchable so agents can answer using your exact content.​
   * **Instagram**
     * Connect your Instagram content so the system can use posts, captions, and **transcripts from your reels** where available.​
     * This helps agents understand your brand tone and social campaigns and generate answers in the same style.​

Any agent linked to this Knowledge Base can now use these resources in its responses.

### 4. Configure how your agent behaves (prompts)

1. Open **Agents → Manage Agent → Prompt Configuration** for your agent.
2. Choose a **Prompt Type** to edit:
   * **Base Prompt**: Main behavior and rules the agent follows in every conversation.​
   * **Welcome Message Prompt**: Controls the first message when a new chat starts.​
   * **Always On RAG Search Prompt**: Instructions for how to use the Knowledge Base when RAG is always on.​
   * **Welcome Back Message Prompt**: Message shown to returning users.​
   * **User Memory Tool Prompt**: How the agent reads and uses saved user memory.​
3. Use **Prompt Versions** to track changes:
   * Increment **Minor versions** for small refinements (wording, clarifications).​
   * Use a new **Major version** for bigger behavior or logic changes.​
   * Update the **Change Log** each time so your team knows what changed and why.​
4. Use **Optimise Prompts** and **Prompt Evaluation** to test and improve prompts based on sample questions and real conversations.​

***

### 5. Test your agent

1. Go to **Try Chat** to talk to your agent in a safe preview.
2. Ask real user questions and confirm:
   * Answers follow your rules and tone.
   * Outputs match the required format (for example, JSON schema or specific sections).​
3. Open **Conversations** to review past chats, spot misunderstandings, and decide where prompts or Knowledge Bases need updates.​

Make adjustments in **Agent Info**, **Prompt Configuration**, and **Knowledge Bases**, then retest in **Try Chat**.

***

### 6. Publish and share your agent

1. Open the **Publish** tab for your agent.​
2. Configure how users will see and use it:
   * **Try Asking Questions Count**: Number of example questions shown in the chat UI.​
   * **Chat Widget**: Copy the embed code (with your **bot-id** and styling options) into your website or app.​
   * **Standalone Chat Page**: Use the “Open Page” link to share a ready‑to‑use chat URL with your team or customers.​
3. Add tracking and integrations:
   * **Google Analytics Measurement ID** to send usage events to your GA property.​
   * **Integrations** like DoubleTick and Sendpulse to use the agent in channels such as WhatsApp or campaigns.​
4. Click **Save** to apply your publish settings and make the latest configuration live.​

Once these steps are complete, you have a live Brainstormer agent powered by your own Knowledge Bases and finely tuned prompts, ready to support your users around the clock.
