A critical aspect of your AI assistant is the knowledge base, which provides it with the necessary information to respond to user queries. In Pabbly Chatflow, you can upload this knowledge base as a text or PDF file. It’s essential to ensure that this file contains all relevant FAQs and details about your travel agency.

To upload your knowledge base, go to the designated section in the AI assistant settings and click on ‘Choose File’. Select the file you prepared earlier and upload it. Pabbly Chatflow supports both text and PDF formats, but it is recommended to use a text file for better compatibility.

Ensure your knowledge base includes company background, FAQs, and any other relevant information. After uploading, confirm that the file has been processed successfully.

With your knowledge base in place, your AI assistant will be equipped to handle a wide range of travel inquiries from users efficiently.


5. Testing Your AI Assistant’s Functionality

After setting up your AI assistant in Pabbly Chatflow, it’s time to test its functionality. Start by sending a message through WhatsApp to see how the assistant responds. For example, typing ‘Hey’ should trigger an automatic reply such as ‘Hello, how can I assist you today?’ This initial response indicates that your assistant is functioning properly.

You can further test the assistant by asking specific questions related to travel packages or payment options. For instance, asking about domestic travel packages or payment methods should yield accurate responses based on the knowledge base you uploaded. This step is crucial to ensure that your AI assistant can handle real user queries effectively.

Once you are satisfied with the responses, you can enable AI auto replies for multiple contacts. This feature allows you to assign the assistant to a group of contacts, making it easier to manage customer interactions. Simply navigate to the settings, enable AI auto replies, and select the contact list you wish to assign.
