Getting Started

Navigate to the Slack App Directory and click on “Create an App”:

Then create an app “From an app manifest”:

Enter the following Slack App manifest, as YAML:

display_information:
name: aptiblebot
description: I help answer questions!
background_color: "#000000"
features:
app_home:
    home_tab_enabled: false
    messages_tab_enabled: true
    messages_tab_read_only_enabled: false
bot_user:
    display_name: aptiblebot
    always_online: true
oauth_config:
scopes:
    user:
    - search:read
    - channels:history
    - users:read
    bot:
    - channels:history
    - channels:join
    - channels:read
    - chat:write
    - reactions:write
    - app_mentions:read
settings:
event_subscriptions:
    bot_events:
    - app_mention
    - message.channels
interactivity:
    is_enabled: true
org_deploy_enabled: false
socket_mode_enabled: true
token_rotation_enabled: false

Click “Next” and then “Create” to finish creating the app.

Open the new app you just created and then under Settings > Basic Information, copy the Client ID and Client Secret:

Save these credentials, as you’ll need them later in the setup process.

Now that your Slack App has been created, you need to invite it to every channel you and your team will want to interact with Aptible.ai and ask questions.

Right click on the channel and select “View channel details”. Navigate to the “Integrations” tab and click “Add an App”:

Select your newly created Slack App and click “Add”. Repeat this process for every channel you want to add Aptible.ai to.

Finally, make a note of the channels you’d like to use for training the AI model. To get the best answers from Aptible.ai, these channels should contain discussion around past incidents and how they were resolved.

This should be a comma-separated list of channel names, like #channel-one,#channel-two,#channel-three.

After signing up, select “launch new project”

Create a new envionment; name it aptible-ai:

Finally, create a new App. You’ll use this App to share your configuration variables with Aptible AI. Important: name your app aptible-ai-early-access and then click “Create App”:

Click on “Apps” in the left-hand navigation, you’ll see your app named aptible-ai-early-access. Click on it to open it.

Click on the “Configuration” tab:

And finally “Edit Environment Variables”: From this screen you can add, edit, or delete your configuration variables for your Aptible AI integrations. Add your variables for Slack, OpenAI, and any other training integrations you’ve set up.

When you’re done, click on “Save Changes”.
