Group Chats

Group chats let you collaborate with your team around shared knowledge. Share data sources, tag the bot to query documents, and branch into threads for focused discussion.

Creating a Group Chat

1. Click New Group Chat in the sidebar
2. Give it a name (e.g., "Q4 Planning" or "Legal Review")
3. Set an expiration:
   • 24 hours — Short-lived discussion
   • 1 week — Sprint or project discussion
   • 1 month — Ongoing topic
   • Never — Permanent channel

When a chat expires, all shared data source access is automatically revoked.

Inviting Members

The chat creator can invite members from the organization:

1. Open the group chat
2. Click Invite Member
3. Search by name or email
4. Select the person to invite

Members receive an in-app notification when invited.

Sharing Data Sources

Any member can share data sources into the chat, making them queryable by everyone in the conversation:

1. Click Share Source in the chat
2. Select a data source you have access to
3. A confirmation dialog shows exactly what will become accessible
4. Optionally set an expiration for the share
5. Confirm

WARNING

When you share a data source, everyone in the chat can query it via the bot. Only share sources you're comfortable making accessible to all members.

To unshare a source, the person who shared it (or the chat creator) can remove it.

Querying with @bot

To ask the AI a question in a group chat, tag it:

@bot What does our refund policy say about digital products?

The bot searches all data sources shared into the chat and responds with a cited answer.

Important: The bot only responds when tagged. Human conversation flows freely without bot intervention — the bot won't interrupt your discussion.

Threads

Branch off any message into a thread for focused discussion:

1. Hover over a message
2. Click Reply in Thread
3. The thread opens in a side panel

Threads work like channels within the chat. You can tag @bot in threads too — the bot reads the thread context to give relevant answers.

Real-Time Updates

Group chats update in real-time:

• New messages appear instantly
• See when members join or leave
• Get notified when data sources are shared
• Bot thinking indicators show when a query is being processed

You can set notification preferences per group chat:

Level	What you get notified about
All	Every message
Mentions	Only when you're @mentioned
None	Muted — check manually

Managing the Chat

The chat creator can:

• Rename the chat
• Change the expiration
• Remove members
• Archive the chat

Any member can:

• Leave the chat
• Share or unshare their own data sources
• Mute notifications
