Steps to Create Your AI Chatbot#
- Set Up Your OpenAI Account
First, you'll need an account with OpenAI. Head over to platform.openai.com and sign up. Once logged in, navigate to the 'API keys' section on the left menu.
- Generate an API Key
Click 'Create a new secret key,' name it, and click create. Remember to copy this key immediately as it won't be visible again. This key is your gateway to integrating AI with your Rise course.
- Access the Mighty Code Catalog
Visit the Maestro Community's Mighty Code Catalog, where you'll find the JavaScript function and CSS files needed for your chatbot. Sign up if you haven't already to download these resources.
- Integrate the JavaScript Function
Within the Mighty Code Catalog, you'll find the JavaScript function. Paste this function into the custom code area of your Rise 360 course's theme. Insert your OpenAI API key where specified within the code. Ensure your course has a unique course ID to maintain specific chat histories.
- Configure Course Content and System Prompt
Tailor the chatbot's responses by specifying the course content and system prompt within the JavaScript. This customization ensures the chatbot's answers are relevant to your course topics.
- Style the Chatbot with CSS
Download the provided CSS file from the Mighty Code Catalog and apply it to your course. This styling will enhance the chatbot's appearance, making it visually cohesive with your course design.
- Preview and Test Your Chatbot
After integrating the JavaScript and CSS, save your changes and preview your course. Test the chatbot functionality to ensure it interacts correctly with your learners and provides accurate information.
Why This Matters#
Incorporating an AI chatbot into your Rise 360 course not only enhances learner engagement but also provides immediate support and clarity on complex topics. This tool is especially beneficial for courses dealing with compliance or regulated content, where learners often have additional questions.
Accessibility Note: While the API key is stored in plain text, remember that your course is delivered to a controlled audience, minimizing any security risks.
Conclusion#
With Mighty's integration capabilities, adding an AI chatbot to your Rise 360 course is straightforward and immensely valuable. Try implementing this feature in your next course to see how it transforms the learning experience for your audience.
