Using a starting prompt

To get started, use starting prompts to instruct Autopilot on various tasks.

Autopilot has several default category-department pairs for starting prompts. Selecting specific departments reloads the list of available starting prompts.

Selecting the department

To see the starting prompts for a specific department, select the desired department from the dropdown menu above the chat, as illustrated in the following image. Once selected, the list of available categories and the corresponding starting prompts are reloaded.

Refreshing the list of available starting prompts

Each department-category pair may contain several starting prompts, not all visible in one go.

To refresh the list of available starting prompts, select the Refresh button.

Using a starting prompt

To use a starting prompt, select the one most relevant to your need. The text field in the chat gets populated with the content of the selected starting prompt. Provide files and replace placeholders, if required, then press Send. Autopilot receives your query and starts running the relevant automation to return a response.

Replacing placeholders in starting prompts

Some starting prompts may require additional data. Placeholders in starting prompts represent specific values you must provide. You can identify placeholders by the blue-highlight around them.

To replace a placeholder within the starting prompt:

1. Select the placeholder.

2. Write the value to replace it.

For example, you use the "What marketing events are happening in <<<City>>>," where <<<City>>> is the placeholder for a city name you must provide. Select <<<City>>>, then write "Bellevue". The prompt is now: "What marketing events are happening in <<<Bellevue>>>". After you select Send, Autopilot tells you whether there are any marketing events in the city.
