Why are conversation starters not showing up in chat

Hi @Alex_MindStudio ,

I have an agent that will run an analysis of information in a CSV file, and at the end, the user can interact with that agent in the “chat.” To do this, I configured some “conversation starters” in the “Terminator Block” chat so that the end user can continue the “conversation with the data.” This was the configuration:

However, on the frontend side, after running the analysis, I receive the output from the “Generate Text” block, which has the output behavior “display to user.” I click the “Next” button, and when I finally get to the chat, these starters do not appear.

What could be wrong here?

Thank you,

Hi @Fjmtrigo,

The Conversation Starters will display in the Chat if the previous block’s Chat History Behavior is set to “Hide”.

Here’s a quick breakdown:

  • Chat History Behavior is set to “Hide”: Conversation Starters are displayed, but the model in the Chat block doesn’t have access to the output from that block
  • Chat History Behavior is set to “Include”: Conversation Starters are not displayed, but the model in the Chat block has access to the output from that block

Hi @Alex_MindStudio ,

i want to include the gen text as chat history in the context of the chat block, so i cannot use the conversation starters, is that it?

any workaround here, maybe with the display block before…?

thanks

Hi @Fjmtrigo,

Of course, here’s how you can set this up:

  • Display the output using a Generate Asset block
  • Reference the variable with the content you want the Chat block’s model to access in the System prompt

With this setup, users see the output and after they click Next to move to the Chat block, the Conversation Starters will appear.
