When an agent needs your input to keep working, it sends an interaction request. These requests appear in your chat thread and ask you to answer a question, make a choice, or provide a credential. Responding keeps the agent moving; ignoring it can pause the task.

Types of Interaction Requests

Agents send requests for a few common reasons:

Answer a Request

1

Open the request

In the chat thread, the agent’s message will show the question or form. Read it carefully.
2

Type or select your answer

For text questions, type your response and click Send. For multiple choice, select the option that fits, or pick Something else to explain manually.
3

Submit or skip

Click Done when finished, or Skip if you want the agent to move on without that answer.
Use the arrow keys to navigate between options and Enter to select. This works for quick multiple-choice responses.

Decline or Dismiss a Request

If you do not want to answer, you have options:
  • Skip tells the agent to proceed without the missing information.
  • Dismiss these questions removes the current batch of requests from the thread.
  • Decline marks the request as declined, which the agent can see in its status.

Request Statuses

Each interaction request has a status so you can see what happened:

Handle Credential Requests

When an agent needs access to a service, it may ask for your key or token.
1

Review the request

The agent names the service it needs access to. Check that you recognize the service.
2

Paste or reuse a saved key

Type or paste your key into the field. If you already saved a credential for that service, you can choose Use your saved key instead.
3

Save to Credentials (optional)

Click Save to Credentials to store the key securely for future use. The key is encrypted the moment you send it and never shown again in chat.
4

Send

Click Send to grant access. The agent can now call the service on your behalf.
Saving a credential replaces the saved key for every agent that uses that service. If you want to keep the old key for other agents, choose Keep saved key instead.
You can revoke any saved credential at any time from the Credentials page. The agent will stop receiving it immediately.
