SmartObserve Assistant Toolkit

Introduced 2.13

The SmartObserve Assistant Toolkit helps you create AI-powered assistants for SmartObserve Dashboards. The toolkit includes the following elements:

  • Agents and tools: Agents interface with a large language model (LLM) and execute high-level tasks, such as summarization or generating Piped Processing Language (PPL) queries from natural language. The agent’s high-level tasks consist of low-level tasks called tools, which can be reused by multiple agents.
  • Configuration automation: Uses templates to set up infrastructure for artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) applications. For example, you can automate configuring agents to be used for chat or generating PPL queries from natural language.
  • SmartObserve Assistant for SmartObserve Dashboards: This is the SmartObserve Dashboards UI for the AI-powered assistant. The assistant’s workflow is configured with various agents and tools.
