This article describes the steps required to enable the Concierge Portal Page on your instance. Optionally, you can also configure feedback collection.

  1. Enable the feature
  2. Configure the Concierge Settings
  3. Enable the Concierge Portal Page
  4. Verify the result
  5. Create new question examples
  6. Set up the Portal Page sharing

PREREQUISITES:

Supported models:

Access Admin > System > System Variables

  1. Find ENABLE_BI_CONCIERGE Variable and click the gear icon to open the Edit Variable window
  2. Assigned value: Set to "Y" to enable the Concierge tab under Search Setup
  3. [Save]
  4. [Commit Changes]

For more information on how to work with System Variables, refer to Setting System Variables.

NOTE: In the 7.0.1 version of Metric Insights, the System Variable was changed to ENABLE_CONCIERGE. Customers upgrading from 6.4.5 must enable it to use Concierge.

2. Configure Concierge Settings

Access Admin > System > Search Setup > Concierge Tab

NOTE: Required fields can differ according to the model used.

  1. Specify Main LLM Model (required)
  2. If necessary for processing larger content, specify Large Context LLM Model
  3. Provide LLM Deployment Name (required for Azure)
  4. Input LLM API Key (required)
  5. Specify LLM API Organization (optional)
  6. Define LLM API Type: "openai" or "azure"
  7. Specify the API endpoint URL for LLM API Base (required for Azure)  
  8. Provide LLM API Version (required for Azure)
  9. Optionally, choose the Custom FAQ Dataset from the dropdown. A Custom FAQ Dataset is a set of questions and answers that the User can organize as a Dataset within the MI system. If it is chosen here, Concierge shows answers from the FAQ Dataset before reaching to the Help&Documentation
    • After selecting the Dataset, define the Question Column and Answer Column
    • The Scope of FAQ (Auto-generated) field will be filled automatically according to the FAQ Dataset content after indexing has been run
    • Optionally, type the Scope of FAQ to inform Concierge on which questions it should use FAQ instead of normal search queries. If nothing is provided, the auto-generated scope will be utilized
    • Select the Include "Portal Name" from Brand(s) in scope of FAQ checkbox to make Concierge consider Portal Name from any enabled Brand as a part of the FAQ
    • For more details about how to create an FAQ Dataset, check out the Create a Dataset from CSV File article
  10. Select the Exclude MI Help Docs checkbox to stop Concierge from searching through the Metric Insights Help&Documentation website for answers. In this case, only the answers from the FAQ Dataset will be provided to the User. This is useful if you have an extensive FAQ set geared toward your Regular Users
  11. Select the Mask Personal Data Sent to LLM checkbox to tokenize the User information (name, email) before sending it to the LLM
  12. [Update All Search Indexes]

NOTE: The search index update is a required step and must be finished before Concierge will work correctly. This step may take some time to complete, depending on how many objects you have in your Metric Insights instance. Indexing progress is shown in the Indexing in progress bar.
