Managing Your Context
My Context lets you provide personal information that the AI assistant uses to give you more relevant, personalized answers. Instead of asking you the same questions repeatedly, the assistant can reference your stored details automatically.
What is My Context
My Context is a set of entries you control. Each entry contains a piece of personal information — such as your name, preferred language, department, or job role. When you interact with the AI assistant, this context is included in the conversation to produce more accurate and tailored responses.
You are always in control. You decide what information to add, and you can edit or delete any entry at any time.
Getting started
When you first visit My Context, you'll see an onboarding section with suggestions to get you started:
- "My name is..." — Help the assistant address you properly
- "I work at... as a..." — Give context about your role and organization
- "My preferred language is..." — Get responses in your preferred language
Adding even a few entries significantly improves the quality of the assistant's responses.
Categories
Your information is organized into categories to keep things structured:
| Category | Examples |
|---|---|
| Personal | Name, employee ID, preferred language, job title |
| Address | Office location, mailing address, city, country |
| Payment | Cost center, billing reference, budget code |
| Preferences | Communication style, notification preferences, timezone |
| Work | Department, team, manager, project assignments |
| Other | Any context that doesn't fit the above categories |
Context Types
Each entry has a context type that controls when the AI assistant uses it:
Always Present
Entries marked as Always Present are included in every AI interaction automatically. Use this for context that is almost always relevant, such as:
- Your name and role
- Your department
- Your preferred language
On Demand
Entries marked as On Demand are only included when the AI determines they are relevant to your current question. Use this for context that is situational, such as:
- Your office address (relevant for location-based questions)
- Payment details (relevant for billing or procurement questions)
- Project-specific information
Start with On Demand for most entries. Only mark something as Always Present if it genuinely helps in nearly every interaction.
