Documentation does not state which input to give for generative answer

Hi,

 

I'm using the latest documentation to setup Sharepoint integration with authentification and everything. So far going well.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-copilot-studio/nlu-generative-answers-sharepoint-onedrive

 

But the documentation states nowhere, what should be in the input field? I cannot get my both to work sourcing our sharepoint site, and quite annoying as it seems im really close.

 

What should be specified in the generative answer input field?

    Hi @fvp111,

     

    Generative answers are typically configured to answer the user's last message or question.

    You can use the system variable System.Activity.Text for this.

    Here's the full list of system variables:

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-copilot-studio/authoring-variables?tabs=webApp#system-variables

     

    Depending on your logic, you can also decide to use your own variables, or to use formulas to use a combination of them.

    Thank you @HenryJammes  . Appreciate it. 

     

    I have changed the input value to System.Activity.text. I have done all the setup for Sharepoint, and it gave me a two factor code to input into the chat prompt. So far so good. That tells me the integration works. But i'm still struggling to get it to work. I have followed documentation to every single point, but not seeing any result when trying to test the bot out from sharepoint page where I know there is information related to the prompt/question im posing. 

    Any help would be appreciate it. 
    I have given the url without https:// as documentation states. 

    Any further help would be appreciated. Picture attached

    Hi again,

    Just wanted to tell I got it fixed, and i had to enable the generative AI even though documentation stated I could just add the sharepoint in the Topic node... 

    So I think a checklist in documentation would be good to get, if you want generative answer to work correctly. 


    Just an input
