Conversation Summary

Conversation Summary enables the summarization of conversations using AI.

Before you begin

1. Configure AI settings

   Set up AI in the CometChat dashboard as detailed in the Overview.

2. Enable Conversation Summary

   Go to Chat → Features, under AI User Copilot, enable Conversation Summary.

3. Use v4 Chat SDKs

   Implement chat using CometChat v4 Chat SDKs.

How does it work?

CometChat AI goes through the messages of a conversation to understand the context of a conversation & provide a short summary of the conversation.

The CometChat SDK has a method to fetch the conversation summary. It returns the conversation summary as a string.

The number of messages used to generate summaries is configurable. By default, CometChat AI uses the latest 1000 messages. You can also use timestamps.

• lastNMessages: Fetch a specific number of recent messages.
• fromTimestamp: Fetch messages from a particular timestamp.
• toTimestamp: Fetch messages up to a particular timestamp.
• unreadOnly: Fetch only unread messages.

While using any configuration mentioned above a maximum of only 1000 messages will be fetched.

Implementation

SDKs

To implement Conversation Summary in the platform of your choice, you may utilize the following code samples:

JS/React Native/Ionic SDK

const receiverId = "UID/GUID";
const receiverType = "user/group";
const configuration = { lastNMessages: 100 };

CometChat.getConversationSummary(receiverId, receiverType, configuration).then(
  (conversationSummary) => {
    console.log("Conversation Summary:", conversationSummary);
  },
  (error) => {
    console.log(
      "An error occurred while fetching conversation summary.",
      error
    );
  }
);

Java

String receiverId = 'UID/GUID';
String receiverType = CometChatConstants.RECEIVER_TYPE_USER; //'user/group'
JSONObject configuration =  new JSONObject();
try {
    configuration.put("lastNMessages", 100);
} catch (JSONException e) {
    throw new RuntimeException(e);
}

CometChat.getConversationSummary(receiverId, receiverType,c onfiguration, new CometChat.CallbackListener<String>() {
    @Override
    public void onSuccess(String s) {
        Logger.error(TAG, s);
    }

    @Override
    public void onError(CometChatException e) {
        Logger.error(TAG, e.getMessage());
    }
});

Kotlin

val receiverId = "UID/GUID"
val receiverType = CometChatConstants.RECEIVER_TYPE_USER // 'user/group'
val configuration = JSONObject()

try {
    configuration.put("lastNMessages", 100)
} catch (e: JSONException) {
    throw RuntimeException(e)
}

CometChat.getConversationSummary(receiverId, receiverType, configuration,
    object : CometChat.CallbackListener<String>() {
        override fun onSuccess(s: String) {
            Log.e(TAG, s)
        }

        override fun onError(e: CometChatException) {
            Log.e(TAG, e.localizedMessage)
        }
})

Swift

let receiverId = ""
let receiverType = CometChat.ReceiverType.group
let configuration = [ "lastNMessages": 100 ]

CometChat.getConversationSummary(receiverId: receiverId, receiverType: receiverType, configuration: configuration) { summary in
    print("getConversationSummary success: \(summary)")
} onError: { error in
    print("getConversationSummary error: \(error?.errorDescription)")
}

Dart

String receiveId = "";
String receiverType = CometChatConversationType.user;
Map configuration = { "lastNMessages": 100 };

CometChat.getConversationSummary(receiveId, receiverType, configuration: configuration, onSuccess:(String summary) {
   debugPrint("getConversationSummary Success: $summary");
}, onError: (CometChatException e) {
   debugPrint("getConversationSummary error: $e");
});

UI Kits

Assuming the necessary prerequisites are met, Conversation Summary functions seamlessly starting from v4 of the Chat UI Kits. The placement of the AI icon may vary based on the version. Clicking on the icon will display the Conversation Summary.
