FAQ Tool in AI Agent

Updated 

The FAQ Tool enables your AI Agent to access and deliver answers from training content using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). This tool is designed to provide accurate, contextual responses to user questions by retrieving relevant knowledge and adapting it into a usable reply.

Steps to Configure the FAQ Tool

Follow the steps below to configure the FAQ Tool in AI Agent Studio.

  1. Access the FAQ Tool

    • Navigate to AI Agent Studio from the Sprinklr Launchpad.

    • Select the AI Agent you want to configure.

    • Expand the Build section and open Tools.

    • Click + Add Tool and select FAQ Tool from the list.

  2. Define Basic Details

    • Name: Enter a unique name to identify the tool (for example, Product FAQs or Policy Support FAQs).

    • Description: Provide a brief description of the tool’s purpose (for example, Delivers answers to product-related queries from the training dataset).

  3. Enter Prompt

    • In the Prompt field, specify the input that guides how the FAQ content should be retrieved.

    • Example: “Retrieve the most relevant answer for the user’s query about account setup.”

    • Prompts should be concise, goal-oriented, and aligned with the intended FAQ source.

  4. Add Additional Field

    • Use the Additional Field option to enter or select values, or link to a specific resource (such as a dataset, FAQ knowledge base, or category filter).

    • This helps refine results and ensures the FAQ tool retrieves answers from the correct source.

  5. Adapt Response

    • Use the Adapt Response option to enable customization of how the retrieved answer is presented.

    • Adapted Response Variable: Enter the variable name where the adapted response will be stored.

    • Example: Store the adapted response in a variable like faqResponse for reuse in downstream tasks or workflows.

  6. Save Configuration

    • Once all details are entered, click Save.

    • The FAQ Tool will now be available in the Tools Record Manager and can be integrated into your AI Agent workflows.

Best Practices

  • Keep prompts specific to reduce ambiguity in FAQ retrieval.

  • Use Additional Fields to narrow down search scope (e.g., filter answers by category such as Billing or Technical Support).

  • Always configure an Adapted Response Variable so the AI Agent can reuse or display the retrieved content consistently across different conversation flows.
