Connect an AI Skill to Creatio AI chat

You can enable users to launch your AI Skill quickly via a Creatio AI chat button. This does not restrict the user from launching AI Skills on other pages. This functionality simply adds the ability to launch the AI Skill quickly from a specific page. To do this:

   Page name	Code of the Freedom UI page specified in the page settings.

6. Click .

As a result, when a user opens the page, they will see a quick launch button for the AI Skill in the Creatio AI chat. If you need to add the AI Skill to other pages, perform the setup in a similar way.

Debug the AI Skill

If any issues occur as part of the event, you can use the following options to debug it:

• To debug actions, follow the same procedure as for business processes as each action is a business process. Turn on process tracing in the business process properties, run the AI Skill, and check the input and output parameters of the process as well as the specific error that occurred during the AI Skill execution. Learn more: Trace process parameters.
• To display all Creatio AI messages, including system messages from the LLM model, run the require(["CopilotConsoleChat"]); command at the browser console. As a result, you will see user messages in the chat, Creatio AI action requests and their input parameters, execution results, and responses from the LLM model.
• To view the list of all system and user messages, context data, and all messages from the model in their raw format, run the JSON.stringify(Copilot._messages) command at the browser console.
