I am trying to use my Azure OpenAI which contains some company documents as the data source for the bot using a Generative Answer node. However, I am not sure how to fill in the fields. For example, I tried copying and pasting the Deployment name from the deployments tab in Chat Playground, but it gave me an error. I am only getting variable suggestions like the ones in the screenshot below, but nothing related to using my data.

Re: Connecting Azure OpenAI Data Source

Hi, @sleepless-swan and @thelopyader . If you want to use 2 different BYOD sources in one bot, as you mentioned, you'll need to configure at least one of the sources on your own, and you'll likely want to trigger them from your topics instead of the default one.

What I recommend doing, though, is deploying a Power Virtual Agent for at least one of your data sources through the Azure OpenAI UI (as @HenryJammes mentioned), because at that point, you can look at the properties of the Generative Answers node in that bot's Conversational boosting Topic to see how it needs to be configured. As you mentioned, you don't get a dropdown of options - you have to specify everything - but this will show you what a set of working values looks like, and will make it much easier to add a 2nd (or 3rd,etc.)

Also, if you have trouble with the PVA deploy button in Azure OpenAI, you'll want to copy the entire url that is initially shown in the browser after you click it, and then replace the part of the url referencing your default environment and instead enter the GUID of the environment you want to use. Right now that UI won't let you pick the environment it deploys to but if you copy the url before it redirects to a new bot in the default environment, everything in it will be correct except for the environment part.

An example is:

Before:

https://web.powerva.microsoft.com/environments/~default/create/templates/azureopenai?azureSearchResourceId={rest omitted}

After:

https://web.powerva.microsoft.com/environments/{Guid of your Environment}/create/templates/azureopenai?azureSearchResourceId={rest omitted}

Cheers,
Matt

Re: Connecting Azure OpenAI Data Source

@HenryJammes Do you know how to manage if I would like to have 2 different sources in different topics coming from Azure OpenAI? Following this thread caught my attention that right now if I want to add a new Generative answers action in another topic it is pretty hard to configure it to point to a different "model".

Thanks in advance!

Re: Connecting Azure OpenAI Data Source

Hi @sleepless-swan

For this, I recommend you start from the Azure OpenAI studio instead, after you configure "on your data".
