In the Configure stage, you design your AI Agent’s logic and behavior using an intuitive visual tool. This is where you define goals, configure skills, and establish business rules.
The AI Agent Platform Orchestration allows customers to design the behavior and capabilities of the AI Agent system with specialized skills, interconnected workflows, and powerful automation capabilities.
When you create a new AI Agent Orchestration, you'll be greeted with the first AI Agent node.
The designer interface consists of several key components that work together to define your AI Agent's behavior and capabilities.
AI Agent Node
The AI Agent node is the fundamental building block of your AI Agent Orchestration. It allows you to define the behavior of the AI Agent and its capabilities.
Conditions Node
The Conditions node is automatically added when the Customer adds the first AI Agent child node for an existing AI Agent node.
The Conditions node contains AI Agent routing conditions that determine when specific child AI Agents should be called. This optional field provides additional context to the parent AI Agent about when to invoke each of its children, creating more sophisticated decision trees.
Skills Node
The Skills node enhances your AI Agent with additional capabilities:
- Workflow: Create complex automations using visual components such as Functions, Execute actions, and Split flows. For more details on Workflows, check the corresponding documentation: AI Agent: Build - Skill - Workflow
- Integrations: Connect your AI Agent to external systems and APIs to extend its functionality. For more details on Integrations, check the corresponding documentation: AI Agent: Build - Skill - Integration
These skills empower your AI Agent to perform complex tasks and interact with other systems, making it more versatile and powerful.
Variables
The Variables section displays two types of variables used within your AI Agent system:
- Custom: Custom variables created by users that are utilized within the AI Agent's skills and workflows.
- System: Pre-defined variables that are populated by consumer applications like Autopilot or Copilot at the beginning of a session.
For more details on Variable, check the corresponding documentation: AI Agent: Build - Variables.
Before You Start Designing
Before building in the AI Agent Platform, make sure you understand its core concepts. These include how agents communicate, how they are structured, and how node configuration affects behavior. A solid understanding will help you design more effective and predictable flows.
