You can also use the AI assistant via WhatsApp. This is a convenient way to make changes while on the go.
Setup
- Open Updates → WhatsApp in the site's sidebar
- If your phone number is not saved yet, add it on that page. Use the same number you use WhatsApp with
- Scan the QR code with your phone or press Open WhatsApp, and a chat with the Kotisivukamu number opens
- The assistant recognises you by the number the message comes from
You can change the phone number later in your profile.
Without a saved phone number, the assistant cannot link the message to your account. Always send messages from the same number that is in your profile.
Supported message types
- Text messages: describe what you want to change
- Images: send images to be added to your site. WhatsApp compresses images sent from the gallery. If the image goes somewhere large, like the front page's main image, send it as a file instead (attach → document)
- Voice messages: speak your change request, and it is turned into text automatically. One voice message can be up to about 10 minutes. If you have many changes, send them as several shorter messages so the assistant handles them more reliably
Videos and files other than images are not supported.
A blog post can also be written or updated in WhatsApp. Give the topic or send your own text, and Kamu saves it as a draft. The draft is published only when you tap the Julkaise button in the message. See Blog posts.
If you send a link in a message, Kamu can read the page and use it as a source.
Managing multiple sites
If you have multiple sites, the WhatsApp assistant will ask which site you want to edit. You can also specify directly in your message, for example: "Update the Bistro Helen site: add a lunch menu."
Good to know
- WhatsApp conversations do not appear on the dashboard's Assistant page. Site updates started from WhatsApp do show on the History page.
- An update is charged to your Kamusaldo the same way as one started from the dashboard chat. The conversation itself is free.
- If you continue the conversation about a different topic after a pause, the assistant starts a new conversation.
