Short answer
Open the Public Interface option from the three-dot menu next to your Project name, select Create Interface, customize it, and then publish it.
Full explanation
You can turn any private Project into a public chatbot by creating a Public Interface. This feature allows others to ask questions using your Project’s content without giving them access to your full workspace. It is ideal for sharing knowledge bases, policies, reports, or FAQs internally or externally.
To create a public chatbot from your Project:
Open your Project
Make sure the Project you want to make public is selected at the top of the screen.
Access the Public Interface
Click the three-dot menu next to the Project name.
Select Public Interface from the dropdown menu.
Create your interface
Click Create Interface and give it a descriptive name.
Enable the interface using the Basic Settings tab.
Customize your chatbot
Go to the User Interaction tab to set a welcome message, add sample questions, and optionally create pre-chat questions for visitors.
You can preview all changes in the Live Preview panel.
Integrate or share
Open the Integration tab to copy your embed code or public link.
You can embed the chatbot on your website, internal portal, or share it as a standalone link.
Save and publish
Click Save Changes to activate your chatbot.
The chatbot will now respond to users based on the content within that Project only.
Your Project’s documents remain secure, and users who interact with the public chatbot do not need an AskTuring account. You can disable or update the interface at any time.
Tips
Keep the Project content accurate and well organized to ensure high-quality answers.
Use a clear welcome message so users know what the chatbot can help with.
For internal sites, you can embed the chatbot behind a password wall so only employees or members can access it.
Review your chatbot’s configuration regularly to ensure it reflects your latest Project updates.
