API - Create Conversation not recognizing mention

Hi. I’m making a call to the “Create New Conversation” API and getting a 200 response. When I use the standard “dust” for the configurationId of the mention in the message object, I am able to see an agent_message response. However, when I use my own assistant (Timesheet_Tool), I’m not seeing the agent response at all, even if I use the “Get Conversation” API to view the messages in the conversation.

Hi Mik

So you need to add the assistant ‘sId’ and not it’s name.

You can for now get it from the ‘list assistants’ endpoint but I’ll add something in the UI to be able to get the assistants’ said easily (I’m off until Wednesday but I’ll make a note out of it)

Thanks !

Hi Alban,

Very helpful. Thank you! What confused me was the placeholder/example given in the documentation, which said “dust”. It made me think it was the name. Thanks for clarifying.

Sounds good - we’ll change that example!
The ‘dust’ id is a specific one that points to the generic @dust assistant: but yes, it doesn’t make a great example as it’s a very specific one :')
