Create an HR Q&A Obot

Obot makes it easy to create an obot that can answer questions about a set of documents using its built-in RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) feature.
This guide walks you through creating an HR Q&A obot step by step.

Note:
As you configure the obot, changes are saved and applied automatically — no need to click "Save".

1. Setting up the Obot​

Start by going to Obot scroll down and click + New Obot to begin creating a new one.

In the General section on the left side, you can:

  • Set the Name and Description to describe your obot (e.g., "HR Policy Q&A").
  • Write Instructions that tell the obot how to behave. This is a system prompt that guides its responses.

Example Instructions:

"You are an HR assistant that answers employee questions based on official company HR policies and procedures. Always be clear, concise, and refer to the relevant policy where possible."

2. Adding Documents​

To provide the obot with knowledge, scroll down to the File Knowledge or Website Knowledge section in the left sidebar.

  • Use File Knowledge to upload files directly from your device.
  • Use Website Knowledge to scrape content from websites, if applicable.

3. Testing the Obot​

Once you've added your documents, test the obot using the chat interface on the right side of the screen.

Ask sample questions like:

"What is the company's remote work policy?"
"How many sick days are provided annually?"

This helps ensure the obot is answering correctly based on the documents provided.

4. Sharing or Publishing the Obot (Optional)​

If you want to share the obot with others:

  • Use the Share section in the left sidebar.
  • Click Share and copy the link to share with others.
