Features
Kbot offers a number of various features. See the description below.
Start new conversations
Click the arrow icon in the text input field to stop the current conversation and start a new one. Previous messages will remain on the screen.
Attach files
Attach files to your records. You can attach files at any moment of the conversation when the bot is gathering information required for either logging an issue or making a request.
Clear the chat
Select this option from the menu in the upper right of the chat window to remove all the messages from the screen.

You can export either a current conversation or the complete conversation history. The data is exported in the TXT format.
Open chat in separate window
Continue the communication in a new window.
Help
Open the Chat Help to view tips, useful commands, etc.
Click the Help button, and the help is opened in a new tab. Alternatively, type #help
to see the tips in the chat itself.
Interact with Kbot
Kbot supports multiple communication channels, including web chat, Skype, Cisco Jabber, Microsoft Teams, etc. The channels are configured by administrators, so the channel available for you depends on your company environment.
If your organization uses the web chat instance of Kbot, all you will need to start is a URL. The chatbot supports the Open Authorization protocol (OAuth2), so it is possible to log in using your Google or Microsoft credentials. Again — it will depend on your Kbot’s specific configuration.
Microsoft Teams
You can interact with Kbot in Microsoft Teams in two ways: in the Team's tab or in the Chat.
