The Global Knowledge Base

Export and import global training data via Excel.

Some answers can come up at any point in a dialog — a request for help, a greeting, a question about how things work. These belong to your Global training data, which applies across the whole dialog rather than to a single block.

When you have a lot of global records, editing them one by one is tedious. The Global knowledge base – Excel import/export lets you manage them all in a spreadsheet.

Export, edit, re-upload

1

Open the tool

In the Train module choose Excel import/export (global). The dialog notes that this training data applies to the entire dialog.

2

Download the Excel

Click Download Excel to export all your global training data as a single file.

3

Edit in your spreadsheet

Add, change, or remove rows in Excel — far quicker than editing records individually.

4

Upload again

Click Upload (delete old) and select your file to bring the changes back in.

⚠

Uploading replaces all existing global training data. The records currently in the system are deleted and swapped for whatever is in your file. Always start from a fresh Download Excel so you're editing the complete, current set — and keep a copy as a backup.

The Excel format

Your file must contain these columns:

Column

Contents

User input

The user input — an answer participants might give.

Bot response

The bot response for that input.

â„č

Global training data always uses the follow-up action (Nachfrage), so the bot replies and stays in place rather than jumping elsewhere. The Excel file should be smaller than 15 MB.

After re-uploading, evaluate a few sample answers to confirm your global records still match as expected.
