Note that the Conversational Retrieval Agent covered at the end of this video is being replaced with the OpenAI Tools Agent. Simply use that node instead of the CRA and everything should work the same. github.com/FlowiseAI/Flowise/pull/1991

[@BertrandGoetzmann]

Hello Leon. First, many thanks for your great work! As OpenAI Tools is currenlty marked DEPRECATING, I tried the NEW Tool Agent with success.

[@AmanpuneetSingh]

@leonvanzyl Is Open AI tool Agent or New Tool agent work only with Open AI or Azure chat models. Which agent shall we use for offline model like llama2 chat running from ollama to integrate with retrieval tool. This runs into error with these new agents. Error received is Error: Value error, The inputs are invalid, at least one input is required: received [] in parameters

[@PierreGorissen]

Really great and easy to follow video, again. Thank you! I haven't watched all of them yet, but one scenario that I don't know if you've already covered is using Flowise and RAG where the agent decides to use web search if not confident enough about the answer returned from the PDF. So for example like in this video if you would ask it about the newest released Tesla model, could you make it so that it figures out that the PDF didn't return a good enough answer and then still do the web search? (I know, best way is to build the agent in my own Flowise instance and try to figure it out. 🙂)

[@leonvanzyl]

You could change the prompt template. Tell it to first look for the answer from the knowledge base before trying the other tools 👍

[@JohnMasse]

If you are coming around to this tutorial today (Flowise version 1.8.1+) both the CRA (Conversational Retrieval Agent) and the OpenAI Tools Agent are being deprecated in favor of NEW Tool Agent. If you are running into errors related to schema invalidation (especially when using the Retrieval tool) OR facing invalidation of a particular regular expression you should be able to simply drop in the Tools Agent, rewire your inputs and off you go.

[@HermesMacedo]

Embedding is only done once, when you upsert the docs.

[@lesinarretables]

Thank you very much, Leon, for your videos which greatly help me find solutions for my clients. They are always very clear and relevant. I would like to know if you have an idea that would allow working on lead generation with Flowise. Maybe a chatbot that could query Google or LinkedIn and would be able to create a list of prospects with their phone number and email, sent to a Google Sheet according to defined criteria ?

[@leonvanzyl]

Thank you VERY MUCH for the support. It helps a lot. I'll try to create a tutorial on this topic 👍. I would combine tools like Make.com and OpenAI for lead generation, but I'm sure it's possible in Flowise as well.

[@ohyesinvest]

What if you had let's say a database of 40-50 documents, each with a description and a purpose, and based on the question or some other context from the chain, you wanted it to use THAT document. For example, I have a property management chatbot where I have google docs that have context info for each property. I am calling the langchain from another application, would i pass the URL of the google doc to a scraper tool somehow?

[@WayneBruton]

Awesome video Leon (Loved the langsmith video too, awesome tool), not quite finished. Followed your video to the letter (up to where I am now14:48 minutes), using in memory vector store. Using my CV as an example. In the retriever tool my description is "Use this tool when asked questions about Wayne Bruton or Wayne." but I keep getting the following response: "Received tool input did not match expected schema", Really not sure what I am doing wrong? Any ideas?

[@leonvanzyl]

Clearly you didn't watch the entire video 😁. I do discuss that error and solution 👍. You're using the wrong node.

[@volume3738]

[@lauroduarte1337]

Is it possible to have more than 1 agent in the same flow? I would love to have different work assigned to specific agents. Lets say, one is good at researching and another one is good at creating a summary of all the research done. I know i can do that with chains but cant the same be done with agents? Or am I just not understanding the chains/agents correctly? 😞

[@ricardofernandez2286]

Great explanation! Thank you! One question ... would it be possible to reuse the already existing recipe flow? By that I mean call it from this flow instead of having to recreate it block by block. Similar to what you would do when you create a library of functions in any programming language.

[@leonvanzyl]

Absolutely! You could call the API of the Recipe Flow using an API Tool or Custom Tool.

[@ricardofernandez2286]

@@leonvanzyl Ahh, you mean for example the way you would call the Flow from an application. I haven't explored APIs and Custom Tools yet, but I've seen that you have several videos on these topics. I'll watch them and see if I can put them in practice for this use case. Thank you very much!!

[@joaobranco6419]

These tutorials are awesome. Thank you very much. I'm just having a little bit of problem making long PDFs work with Vector Store databases. When different parts of the PDF, parts witch are located far appart in the document, are related and share context, the agent is not able to pull both parts and gives incomplete answers or even wrong answers cause it doesn't consider all of the important parts of the document. How could we fix this?

[@leonvanzyl]

Thank you! Increase the chunk size until the results improve. Also increase the k value in the retriever. Hope these help.

[@WayneBruton]

Hi Leon, Quick question. I notice, playing with openai assistants, I can go into the assistant(in openai) and change files as well as the prompt and it automatically updates my flowise. Which is pretty cool. Problem is openai assistants does not (yet) support streaming so has the appearance of being slow. Using your demo as per the video above, would it be possible to get a new document, embed it using openai embeddings and push to an existing index (which I am using in my flowise app). Doing all this external from flowise, would it work in flowise similarly to how it does with openai asistants?

[@leonvanzyl]

Absolutely! You can update the index anyway you want. Flowise simply fetches documents from the index.

[@ricardofernandez2286]

Hi Leon, I'm revisiting this video and I must say that I enjoyed it way more than the first time I saw it. Perhaps because now I have a slightly better understanding of the whole thing. And this triggers me a question. I know this question does not have an absolute answer; it is more a "how would you think about a best practice for doing this". And the question is, in a scenario in which you have to solve many different tasks would you favor a complex flow like this one, that handles many different things, or would you split tasks into different flows and orchestrate them from somewhere else, like for example an application UI, where depending on what the user needs to do you access the right flow? Thank you!!

[@leonvanzyl]

Excellent question. Think of this in terms of token usage. Each tool is technically injecting information about the tool into the prompt so that the model has an understanding of when and how to use the tool. There is obviously a cost involved (whether $ or performance). When you add a lot of tools you will greatly increase your token usage and costs. To keep costs low I would suggest creating agents that focus on specific tasks and only call the appropriate agent depending on the task. I know it's not a clear answer, but it really does come down to token usage.

[@ricardofernandez2286]

@@leonvanzyl Well, originally I was thinking of this with the goal of building the solution "the right way", on the premise that there are many ways of doing the same thing, but some ways are better than others. However, your perspective on tokens is really a good way of looking at the problem from the economic point of view, that could eventually define the meaning of "the best way" 😄

[@abiolasamuel8092]

Great content as always! How can we customize the default chat window message "Hi there! How can I help?"

[@leonvanzyl]

There doesn't seem to be a way to change it within Flowise itself, although I wouldn't be surprised if that changes soon. You can change it when embedding it in websites though. I'll release a video soon on website embedding that will show you how.

[@Philosophicflix]

I am trying to build an agent that compares a JSON with user data from a database to a given final JSON format. It should first identify what values of the final JSON are missing and then needs to ask the user for the missing user data one by one (e.g age, name, email, adress etc.). Once the use has given all the answers the agent should store the updated JSON with the given answers in a database. Do you have an idea on how to start that challenge using Flowise? Thank you!!

[@krisograbek]

A quick question, Leon... If I want my knowledge base to be multiple files... When does it make sense to split it to multiple Retrieval tools? Let's say I'm building a chatbot for a hotel. And the knowledge files contain: 1. Hotel FAQ. 2. Menu for the in-house restaurant. 3. A comprehensive PDF with local attractions (for planning local trips for guests). Would you create 3 separate tools (with 3 Pinecone blocks) or rather try to combine all the documents into a single Retrieval tool? PS. I know you're just a single person, so don't feel forced to answer. But I'll appreciate if you find time :)

[@leonvanzyl]

This is a fantastic use case! I would use 3 seperate retrieval tools so that each tool contains a description related to the data being fetched like "use this tool when asked about the menu and restaurant". I know this might seem silly since the data are all stored in the same Vector database, but it does give you some flexibility. We haven't really convered this topic, but you can set a namespace when upserting docs to Pinecone. So in the retriever you can then only filter on the documents related to the menu as an example.

[@krisograbek]

[@itayba76]

I was wondering why you were using a conversational agent with a retrieval tool i.s.o using a conversational retrieval agent node in the first place? Also, could you shed some light on the difference between using these agents with ChatOpenAI as the model, and the OpenAI Assistant? BTW, around 11:30 you have a sentence that repeats twice ("answer questions based on you own data")

[@leonvanzyl]

I like to build up the complexity when explaining things. Jumping straight into the retrieval node would then cause a bunch of people to ask me why I didn't just use the conversation node. I just can't win 😅. The OpenAI Assistant is actually not a model, but an entire framework which includes long term memory and RAG built in. Although Easy to use, it means vendor lock in. Some people prefer to build their own agents and select their own vendors.

Interesting question. Do you mean that the model should generate a result, and the result should be converted to XML? Output parsers are used to format the OUTPUT of the model. If you're referring to the opposite where the model received an XML structure as input, then no parsing is needed. These models are really good at understanding the contents of an XML structure.
