Overview
Build Assist is an AI-powered WebApp development assistant designed to help WebApp Designers rapidly build and configure WebApps and Construct pages for data enrichment and data construction purposes. Before you start using Build Assist, it is recommended to understand the best practices to get the most out of Build Assist.
Note
Build Assist is not designed to respond to prompts unrelated to WebApp designing.
Create Effective Prompts
Creating effective prompts involves structuring your prompts to ensure clarity and precision, which is essential for obtaining valuable responses from Build Assist. To optimize your prompts, consider the following tips:
Break down complex tasks into simpler ones. For example, focus on creating and configuring one construct page at a time.
Clearly specify your requirements
Mention the datastore, dataset, or field names from which you want to configure grid, form, or column input field.
Reference relevant components and properties, such as configuration fields, input data, and layout customizations.
Adhering to these principles will help facilitate more accurate and effective responses.
Example Prompts
Note
Build Assist processes your prompts based on the context of Datastores and Datasets.
Add a link to the Orders page to the navigation menu.
Build a new set of pages for conducting Master Data Management for my Customers. I would like pages that focus strictly on Customer ID and Customer Name resolution, a separate page for managing Customer contact person information, and lastly a page dedicated to managing Customer Address and Location details.
Help me understand the Data Frame property.
Can you help me fix the following error: One or more validation errors occurred. Errors: Menus[1].MenuLinks[2].LinkToPageName: [Menu links can only have link_to_url, link_to_page_name, or sub_menu_name populated.]
Verify Build Assist’s Response
While Build Assist is highly effective in WebApp development, it can still make mistakes, and you should always validate the response JSON code it suggests/updates. Understand the suggested response JSON code before you implement it.
To ensure you fully understand Build Assist’s suggestion, you can ask Build Assist to explain the changes made to the JSON code.
Directing Build Assist for Effective Results
Use the following methods to make Build Assist provide effective responses:
While Build Assist has the context of the datastore associated with the WebApp, you can specify relevant datasets (tables or views) from which you can create grids or forms with required fields.
If Build Assist isn't giving you a helpful response, consider rephrasing your prompt or breaking your request into smaller, more specific parts. This can often lead to better and more accurate results.
