Candidates

If Alli cannot match a question or if the user selects “None of the above” from Q&A suggestions, then the original question from the user will be updated in the Candidates tab. You can add these questions to the Q&A database later by answering them manually or by using AI.

  1. This is the Candidates tab. Let's explore it further.
  2. Manage the Candidates list from here. Filter, search, download, change rows per page. You can select multiple candidates and add them to the Q&A, or delete them if they are irrelevant.
  3. Preview the content of the candidate question. Alli lists similar questions from customers under one candidate. If a question is from Alli Answer Bot interface, you can click 'See history' to check the context of the question.
    Answers to these questions can either be added manually while adding the candidate to the Q&A database or be automatically answered by MRC (Machine Reading Comprehension) AI. Check out Fill the answer directly from your documents to learn more.

    • Find answer: Click on this option to request Alli to find the answer within the uploaded documents. If Alli is unable to find an answer, it'll display 'No document contains the answer'.
    • Delete: Delete the candidate question permanently.
