Changelog

Langdock now offers an enhanced web search mode, providing quick and current answers along with links to relevant internal sources from the internet.

If web search is enabled for your workspace, you can now turn it on in the newly redesigned chat input bar. This will force the model to search the web for up-to-date news and information regarding your query.

We launched the API for assistants. You can now access assistants, including attached knowledge and connected tools through an API.

To enable an assistant to be accessible through the API, admins need to create an API key in the API settings. Afterward, you can share the assistant with the API by inviting the key like a normal workspace member.

After configuring the API in your workflow (here are our docs), you can then send messages to the assistant through the API. The API also includes structured output and document upload.

You can now share chats with users of your workspace by clicking on the button in the top right corner. It’s a great way to share your work with your colleagues directly in Langdock.

The sharing button appears after the first message has been sent in the chat. Once a chat is shared, new messages will also be shared. Others can only read the contents of that chat, but not interact with it. They will not have access to the documents attached, but can view answers based on the documents. You can unshare a chat anytime from the settings.

You can now navigate Langdock and search chats directly from your keyboard with the new command bar feature. This allows for quick and easy access to the information you need, right at your fingertips.

Pressing Cmd + K on your keyboard (for Windows Ctrl + K) opens a menu to quickly perform different operations. Here are a few examples:

• Search through all your chats
• Search a specific assistant
• Quickly change settings, like switching to dark mode, opening the documentation, the changelog, or the support chat

We also added a search button in the top left corner which opens the command bar.

There are also new and updated shortcuts:

• Open a new chat: Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + O
• Open/close the sidebar: Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + S
• Copy the last response: Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + C

We hope these improvements make you even more productive when using Langdock.

You can now incorporate variables directly into your prompts and create dynamic templates that can be easily reused across different contexts.

When creating a new prompt in the prompt library, wrap a word with {{ and }} or click on the variable button at the bottom to make it a variable. When using the prompt later, users can quickly fill out the variables in order to customize the prompt to their needs.

This helps to easily use a prompt in different contexts without leaving your keyboard or to make it easier for others to use the prompt when you share it.

You can find more details in our section about the prompt library in our documentation.

Gain valuable insights into how your assistants are being used with the new assistant usage insights feature available in Langdock.

Users can now upvote or downvote responses and leave comments, providing direct feedback that can help you improve your assistant's configuration. This interaction enhances the user experience and offers concrete suggestions for improvement in the feedback tab.

In the analytics tab, you as an editor or owner of an assistant, can access quantitative data about usage over specific timeframes in the analytics tab. The number of messages, conversations and users helps you understand user engagement and identify needs.

With these insights, assistant creators can assess performance and make informed improvements of the configuration, leading to a more effective and user-friendly assistant.

Introducing Canvas

We're excited to launch Canvas, a new feature in Langdock that enhances your writing and coding tasks. Canvas offers an interactive window where you can edit text and code directly, receive AI suggestions, and collaborate more effectively.

Highlights:

• Inline Editing: Easily make changes and get AI suggestions.
• Coding Tools: Review, and fix code seamlessly.
• Writing Enhancements: Adjust text tone and style with ease.

Canvas is now available for all Langdock users.

Assistants can now talk to other software tools like Jira or Salesforce via actions.

Actions

Assistants can now perform API calls to external tools, opening up many integration possibilities with CRMs, ticket management tools, or internal APIs. Check out our Actions documentation for details, including specialized guides for Jira, Google Drive, and Salesforce.

We added the latest OpenAI models, o1 and o1 mini. Admins can enable them in the model settings. As a heads up, these models are thinking models but not replacements for all tasks. The o1 models are better at reasoning and complex thinking tasks, like math, data analysis, or coding, than previous models, but not at knowledge retrieval, text generation, or translation. This is because they will take a comparatively long time to start writing their answer since they are thinking in the background first. You can read more about this in our model guide.

Users now have more insights into the assistants they use. When clicking on an assistant in the assistant list, users see a pop-up with high-level information about the assistant, such as whether web search is enabled or which model is used.

We''ve added a changelog to the product and our website to inform you about new features and improvements. A pop-up will appear at the bottom left of the product whenever we launch a significant new feature. You can click on it to learn more and also discover all the other features we launched since the last update.
