Luma can address many questions because it is easy to get the content into the system. Organizations can now reuse written content that they already have. This content can be reused without creating a skill in Luma. The content can be imported in minutes to make Luma smarter. Skills Builder Administrators and Developers can import Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) from a file or a URL into Luma. This helps all the users to find answers to common questions through a conversation with Luma from all supported channels. Luma should respond to the user with the answer from the identified FAQ. Following are some of the benefits of the FAQ feature:

  • Allow organizations to leverage their existing FAQ content and easily import it into Luma.
  • A simple and fast way to create a smarter bot - no need to create a skill for every FAQ.
  • Luma becomes the single place for users to go to find 'knowledge'.
Info
titleImportant

Before creating FAQs, ensure that you contact the Serviceaide support team at https://support.serviceaide.com and raise a support ticket to initiate the FAQ processThe FAQ feature is currently in Beta and is only available in English language bots. Non-English users will not see this feature. 

During the Beta period, using FAQs will not consume a Conversation transaction.


Info
titleNote

While processing a user entered phrase, if the NLP results have a tie between a skill and an FAQ, then Luma will respond as per the Default Priority set for the Tenant. If the Default Priority is set to Skill, then the skill that matches the phrase will be shown. If the Default Priority is set to FAQs & Skills, then a single FAQ is shown first. If the user responds that the FAQ is not helpful, then the matching skill is shown. To manage this setting, contact the Serviceaide support team.

      • The CSV file must have questions in the first column and answers in the second column with no header row 
      • The CSV file import is preferred as the parsing of questions and answers is more accurate.
      • If the questions or answers contains a comma, then ensure that the content is enclosed within double quotes. For example, ''What is the guest wifi password?" and ''The company guest WiFi network is named CompanyGuest, the password is Success2018''.
