1. You also get in-app guidance using Zia (trained in Natural Language Processing [NLP]) to help you build your application's components.
   
2. Before you proceed to learn how to create apps using Zia assistance, click here to know more about Zia's integration with OpenAI and Zoho LLM.

2. Availability

Zia-assisted applications

1. Is available only for paid plans of Creator
   
2. Can only be enabled, created, and managed by the super admin.  Admins and developers can create and manage AI-assisted apps, while other users can access those apps
   
3. Zoho LLM is currently available for use only in US and IN data centres (DCs), while EU, AU, CA DCs will continue with the OpenAI Bring-Your-Own-Key (BYOK) approach as before.

3. Setting Up Zia for Creating AI-assisted Apps

3.1 AI-Assisted App Creation Flow

3.2 See How To Configure

1. To know more about the prerequisites, click here.
   
2. Only the super admin and admins can configure Zia in Creator.
3. For Zoho LLM, follow step 7 and then you can directly start creating apps without configuring any integration.

1. Navigate to Operations in your Creator account.

2. Click Zia in the Applications card. The Settings screen will appear.

If you have already added an API key, then proceed to step 7.

3. Select the required LLM - OpenAI or Zoho LLM.

1. If you've chosen OpenAI, you need to add your API key (go to step 3).
   
2. If you've chosen Zoho, go to step 7 directly.
   

4. Click Add API Key in the Configuration tab. A popup will appear.

5. Enter your OpenAI API Key and click Add. 

6. To edit or update the key after adding it, click Edit. Update the key in the pop-up that appears, and click Save.

Refer to this page to know more OpenAI's authentication.

7. Toggle the Access button beside Create Applications in the Select Features section. By default, this button will be enabled. This will allow you to use the combined capabilities of Zia and OpenAI to create applications.

As a super admin/admin, you can disable the toggle button as required. This will disable this feature for your Creator account.

4. Create an app with the help of ZIa

1. If you haven't configured Zia integration (refer to above section), click Configure in the Create using AI card. Click Go to Settings in the popup that appears.
   
2. If you've already configured Zia integration, click Create in the Create using AI card.
   
   
   

1. If you've already configured Zia integration but disabled the toggle button beside Create Applications in Zia Settings, click Enable in the Create using AI card. You'll be taken to the Zia Settings page.

After enabling Create Applications in Zia Settings, you'll be redirected to the Create create app using Zia page, where you can describe your app.

To know more about recommended guidelines for application description and usage of generated use cases, click here.

By default, three use cases will be generated. You can generate up to five use cases (including custom use case) by clicking the Generate Use Cases button.

When you try to add a use case that might not be relevant to your applications context, a confirmation popup will appear. You can click Proceed to add that custom use case.

Note: You need to have at least one use case to proceed in creating an application using Zia.

Note: 

1. You can regenerate use cases only after all the five use cases have been generated in the first place.
   
2. If you've added a custom use case and click Regenerate, all the use cases will be regenerated irrespective of the use cas etype.
   

1. The sample data generated for each use case showcases a real-world scenario but uses fictitious data.
2. Including sample data at this stage makes the process of application creation a tad easier as it helps you visualize how a working application will look with data populated.
   
3. If you've checked the Include sample app data option, the Data tab will be pre-filled with sample data. 

4.1 Review the table for your app

1. Please note that AI-generated use cases will be collectively used to aid in relevant application and form creation.
   
2. To know the list of field types that will not be included in the forms generated based on use cases, you can click here. However, you can add these fields post accessing your form.
3. The tables generated may also contain lookup fields that enable you to lookup data from another form in the same application.

Note: The below actions except editing app and form names are applicable only when you choose to include sample data.

1. Filter: Filtering the data in your table can help you decide which data is to be refined, then imported into the to-be created application. 
   
2. Find and Replace: You can find a value across a table or in one of its columns, and replace it with another. 
   
3. Refine Data: You can perform smart data refining operations.
   
4. Smart Suggestions: You can finalize the table after working on the actions suggested by Zia, the AI assistant.
   
5. Edit app and form names: You can modify the app name, table names, and their properties.
   

4.2 Create app

You'll be taken to one of your application reports, in which you can add records.

5. Limitations

To know more about how to check the monthly usage of OpenAI API, click here.

1. OpenAI API Rate limits: Rate limits are restrictions that OpenAI's API imposes on the number of times a user or client can access their services within a specified period of time and vary based on their usage tier and the model consumed. 
   
1. To view rate limit for your account that contains the API key used for this integration, visit https://platform.openai.com/account/limits
