Web search in the Web App
Goal
Get an answer grounded in current web results instead of only the model's training data.
What you need
- A signed-in session in the Web App at app.botconnector.id — web search is an authenticated feature.
- A conversation with a model picked (Model picker).
Steps
- Open a chat in the Web App while signed in.
- Turn on the web search entry point for the conversation.
- Ask a question that needs current information.
- Read the answer with its sources. The model searches the web and grounds its reply in the results it finds.
Expected result
An answer that cites the web results used, rather than a purely model-generated reply.
If it fails
- Web search does nothing: confirm you are signed in — it is an authenticated feature — then see Troubleshooting.
- Answers lack sources or look stale: re-run the question, then check the status page for the feature's real state.
- General problems: Troubleshooting.
