Smart Replies enable the retrieval of an AI-generated response message within a conversation.

​
Before you begin

  1. Configure the AI settings through the CometChat dashboard as detailed in the Overview section.
  2. Navigate to Chat > Features, under AI User Copilot, enable Smart Replies.
  3. Implement the chat functionality in your applications using CometChat’s v4 Chat SDKs.

​
How does it work?

CometChat AI goes through the messages of a conversation to understand the context of a conversation & provide relevant replies. It returns three replies: positive, negative & neutral. The CometChat SDK has a method to fetch the smart replies in a conversation. It returns an object of three replies with keys: positive, negative & neutral. The number of messages to be fetched to generate relevant Smart Replies is configurable. By default the CometChat AI takes the latest 1000 messages. This can be configured to specific timestamps as well.
ConfigurationValue
lastNMessagesThis will fetch specific number of messages.
fromTimestampThis will fetch messages from a particular timestamp.
toTimestampThis will fetch messages until a particular timestamp.
unreadOnlyThis will fetch only the unread messages.
While using any configuration mentioned above a maximum of only 1000 messages will be fetched.

Implementation

​
SDKs

To implement Smart Replies in the platform of your choice, you may utilize the following code samples: 
const receiverId = "UID/GUID";
const receiverType = "user/group";
const configuration = { lastNMessages: 100 };

CometChat.getSmartReplies(receiverId, receiverType, configuration).then(
  (smartReplies) => {
    const { positive, negative, neutral } = smartReplies;
    console.log("Positive Reply", positive);
    console.log("Negative Reply", negative);
    console.log("Neutral Reply", neutral);
  },
  (error) => {
    console.log("An error occurred while fetching smart replies", error);
  }
);

​
UI Kits

Assuming the necessary prerequisites are met, Smart Replies function seamlessly starting from v4 of the Chat UI Kits. In v4, Smart Replies are accessible manually, whereas in v5, they work automatically.
