### Settings

The action uses the following settings:

| Setting               | Description                                                                                   | [Parsed](https://docs.mylinkconnect.com/actions-and-operations/dynamic-parsing) |

| Assistant Id          | The unique id of the trained assistant you wish to use                                        | :white\_check\_mark:                                                            |
| Auto-Generate Content | If enabled, MyLINK Connect will generate the bubble with the content of the assistant reply   | :no\_entry:                                                                     |
| Split Paragraphs      | If enabled, MyLINK Connect will follow your assistant line break to generate multiple bubbles | :no\_entry:                                                                     |

### Remarks

The assistant reply is returned to the chat (or to a variable) directly without any intervention of MyLINK Connect on the content.

Conversation with the assistant will stay in thread, based on the openai\_assistant\_thread variale. If you wish to start a new thread just empty the variable before making a new request.

{% hint style="info" %}
Depending on the OpenAI model, request complexity and OpenAI account level, replies might take more than 20 seconds to be generated.
