TeamAI's datastore feature allows you to store and organize various types of documents, including files, webpages, and entire websites. By granting your assistants access to these datastores, you can provide them with the context they need to better understand and respond to your queries. In this article, we'll explore how users on the Starter, Best-of-Breed, Professional, and Enterprise plans can enable their assistants to access datastores.
Enabling Datastore Access for Assistants
If you're on the Starter, Best-of-Breed, Professional, or Enterprise plan, you can easily grant your assistants access to your datastores. The process is similar to selecting datastores for your own use on the chat screen.
Selecting Datastores for Your Assistant
Navigate to your assistant's page.
In the end of the settings, you'll see a menu for datastore selection, just like the one on the chat screen. Select the collections and datastores you want your assistant to have access to, and hit 'Publish' button:
Return to the home page and select your assistant from the sidebar:
Enjoy the results!
How Assistants Use Datastore Access
When you provide your assistant with access to datastores, you're essentially giving them context to better understand and respond to your queries. Here's how it works:
You ask your assistant a question related to the information contained in your datastores.
The assistant searches through the selected datastores to find relevant information.
The assistant uses this information to provide a more accurate and contextually relevant response to your query.
By granting your assistant access to datastores, you can unlock their full potential and enable them to provide more valuable insights and assistance.
Best Practices for Datastore Access
When granting your assistant access to datastores, keep the following best practices in mind:
Only select the collections and datastores that are relevant to the tasks your assistant will be performing. This helps keep their knowledge focused and improves the accuracy of their responses.
Regularly review and update the datastores your assistant has access to, ensuring they have the most up-to-date information.
If you have sensitive information in your datastores, consider creating separate collections or datastores specifically for your assistant's use, rather than granting them access to your entire library.
