Overview
Vee provides a set of pre-written sample questions upon entering the conversation interface, allowing users to quickly ask a question. As an administrator, you have the ability to customize these sample questions and assign them to specific user groups. This ensures that users see only relevant questions aligned with their data access and permissions. For example, if you assign 10 questions to a user group, and the conversation interface displays six, users will see six random questions from those 10. If no questions are assigned to a user group, users will see six random questions from the complete list of available sample questions. Users can access the full list of sample questions by clicking the More sample questions button .
You can:
- Add, edit, hide, and delete questions.
- Add questions to user groups.
- Add, edit, and delete question categories.
Workflow
To customize the sample questions and categories in Studio:
- In a project, on the navigation bar, click Model > Vee.
- Make your changes.
- When finished, publish your project to production. For instructions, see Publish Project Changes.
Customize questions
You can create and manage questions in the Sample questions tab.
Note: For existing sample questions, Vee checks that the necessary data exists to answer the question and will only surface them when that data is present. For new or customized questions, Vee does not perform this check. If you customize a question (such as changing the question text, adding a new question, or assigning a user group), you will need to test and validate that Vee returns a response as Vee will not automatically check if the necessary data exists.
