You can use custom content sources to power AIP Assist responses and improve platform usability. Custom sources improve AIP Assist’s ability to respond to topics like operational workflows and platform navigation, providing tailored support and resources based on your operational needs. Focused content can be particularly beneficial for user onboarding, training sessions, and promoting self-service and automation. You can regulate and configure AIP Assist's level of access in Control Panel, granting access anywhere on the platform or only on selected resources.
To provide a custom source to AIP Assist, you must first introduce it using one of two available options, register it with AIP Assist, and configure visibility and AIP Assist access in Control Panel.
The following are examples of content that can be used to optimize AIP Assist responses:
Custom sources in AIP Assist are part of Palantir’s AIP offering and require your enrollment to have AIP enabled in Control Panel.
There are currently two methods of adding custom content sources that can be registered with AIP Assist:
documentation type repository in Code Repositories).Refer to registering custom content sources with AIP Assist for more information.
Once a custom source has been registered, there are two options for using it with AIP Assist. The first is adding it to the default AIP Assist knowledge base for your enrollment, or alternatively, creating an AIP Agent in Agent Studio. The following sections provide a high level overview of the differences between the two.
When adding custom sources to the default AIP Assist knowledge base, custom content is added to the larger search context that AIP Assist uses to answer all questions. This method provides the option to make the content always available, regardless of the resource the user is viewing, or only when the user is viewing a specific resource or set of resources.
Refer to serving custom content sources to users for more information.
The other method of using custom sources in AIP Assist involves creating an AIP Assist Agent, or LLM-powered assistant, that only uses the provided content to answer queries. Each agent may have one or many documents added to its search context, and when selected, its answers will be based on this content alone. As a result, responses will be limited to the provided content source, but they will be more precise and targeted.
