Overview

An end-to-end AI agent that handles drafting, answering, and publishing FAQs inside Vtiger CRM.

The AI agent reads the latest FAQ in Draft status from Vtiger, sends the question to a DeepSeek-powered LangChain model to generate an answer, and returns a plain-text response. It then writes the answer back to Vtiger and changes the status to Published, ensuring the knowledge base stays current. Context is preserved during the process to improve consistency across related FAQs and future drafting.

Example

Example workflow

A realistic run showing end-to-end automation in action.

Scenario: A draft FAQ titled 'What is the return policy?' is created in Vtiger at 10:15 AM. The AI agent runs every minute, sends the question to DeepSeek via LangChain, and returns a polished answer within seconds. By 10:17 AM the FAQ record is updated with the answer and status changed to Published, making the new content available in the knowledge base.

FAQ

FAQ

Practical questions about deployment, data, and operations.

The agent can be deployed where you run your Vtiger integration and LangChain workflow. It leverages your Vtiger API and DeepSeek API keys, so data stays under your control. It works in self-hosted environments as well as managed cloud setups, depending on your security posture. You retain responsibility for credential management and network access. We provide guidance to align deployment with your policies.

The automation polls for new Draft FAQs every minute by default. Interval can be adjusted in the scheduler to fit your tolerance for latency. The agent queries Vtiger for the latest record with faqstatus = 'Draft' and proceeds if found. If no drafts exist, it simply waits for the next interval and logs the check. All operations are auditable for compliance.

The answer is not published without trace. The agent can be configured to require a QA gate before status changes to Published. Any generated content is attached to the draft for review and can be edited by humans if needed. Failures are logged and can trigger alerts to designated responders. You can also roll back to previous versions if required.

The agent reads the question field from the Draft FAQ and writes the answer to faq_answer. It updates faqstatus from Draft to Published after successful generation. It may store an internal audit ID for traceability and attaches metadata about the generation run. All changes occur via the Vtiger API with proper permissions.

Data remains within your environment as per your deployment. API keys for DeepSeek and LangChain are kept secure and rotated per policy. The AI processes only the necessary content (the question and answer) and does not share data beyond configured integrations. Memory context is transient and cleared after use or as configured. You control retention and access to published FAQs.

Yes. You can adjust the LangChain prompt templates and memory behavior to fit your tone and requirements. It’s possible to constrain output length, enforce style guidelines, and predefined answer structures. You can also inject context from related FAQs to improve consistency. Changes are isolated to the AI chain and do not modify core Vtiger data without explicit publishing actions.

Disable the scheduling trigger in the AI agent page or pause the underlying workflow. When paused, no new drafts are processed while existing published content remains intact. You can resume at any time, with the next cycle picking up from the latest Draft items. All activity prior to pausing remains available in the audit logs for review.
