We will focus on creating an agent from scratch.

1. Select “Build from scratch”

When you select the Build from scratch option, you’ll be taken to the flow editor where you can start building your agent from a blank canvas. You can add elements, customize the flow, and configure settings as needed.

On the left side of your screen, you will see the elements panel. This is where you can add different types of elements to your agent flow. You can choose from a variety of elements, including:
  • Text: Send a message to the user.
  • Input: Collect user input (text, number, email, etc.).
  • Logic: Create conditions and branches in your flow.
  • Integrations: Connect to third-party services like Google Sheets, Zapier, Stripe, etc.
  • AI: Integrate advanced AI models like OpenAI, Claude, Mistral, Groq, etc.

2. Add a Text element

To start, drag and drop a Text element from the elements panel to the flow editor. This element will be the first message your agent sends to the user.

3. Configure the Text element

Click on the Text element you just added to open its configuration panel. Here, you can customize the message that will be sent to the user. For example, you can set the message to “Hello! How can I help you today?“.

4. Add a User Input element

User input elements are essential for collecting information from users. After the text element, you can add an input element to ask the user for their name or any other information you need. Next, drag and drop an Text Input element from the elements panel to the flow editor. This element will allow the user to enter their name.

5. Configure the Input element

Click on the Text Input element you just added to open its configuration panel. Here, you can customize the input and assign a variable such as ‘name’ and set a label for the input.

6. Read the User Input

You can use the variable you assigned to the input element to read the user’s response. For example, you can use the variable name to greet the user by their name in the next text element.

7. Test Your Agent

Once you have added the text and input elements, you can test your agent by clicking on the Play button in the top right corner of the flow editor. This will open a preview of your agent where you can interact with it and see how it responds to user input.
