## Config in Detail

### Admin Notify E-mail

The "Admin Notify E-mail" setting specifies the email addresses that will receive notifications regarding the bot’s activities and administrative updates. This feature ensures that administrators are promptly informed about any critical events or issues related to the bot's operation, allowing them to take necessary actions swiftly.

### Answer Mode

In a bot factory configuration, the integration of a Language Learning Model (LLM) is pivotal in enhancing the functionality and efficiency of the bots. The LLM can be employed in various modes depending on the requirements of the bot system. These modes include "direct," "document," "document-ref," "sql," and "tool," each offering a unique method of interaction and data handling. For instance, in the "direct" mode, the LLM is used to generate responses or actions based on real-time user input, providing immediate and contextually relevant replies. This approach is particularly useful for creating conversational agents that can handle a wide range of user queries effectively.
In the "document" mode, the LLM processes and generates responses based on pre-existing documents or content. This mode is ideal for scenarios where the bot needs to reference detailed information or provide insights derived from specific documents. The LLM analyzes the content of the documents to deliver accurate and contextually appropriate information, thereby enhancing the bot's ability to offer valuable and precise responses. This approach is particularly beneficial for applications that require in-depth knowledge or detailed guidance based on existing resources.
The "document-ref" mode builds on the document-based approach by allowing the LLM to reference and extract information from multiple documents to generate comprehensive responses. This mode is advantageous when the bot needs to synthesize information from various sources to provide well-rounded answers or perform complex tasks. In contrast, the "sql" mode leverages structured query language to interact with databases, enabling the LLM to retrieve and manipulate data based on specific queries. Lastly, the "tool" mode integrates the LLM with external tools or services, allowing the bot to extend its functionality by interacting with other applications or systems. Each mode offers a distinct advantage, allowing the bot factory to tailor its approach based on the specific needs and objectives of the bot system.
The "chart" mode,  on the other hand, is used to generate charts and graphs based on data, providing a visual representation.

### Language Detector

The "Language Detector" feature enables the bot to automatically identify the language of user inputs. When activated, the bot can adapt its responses based on the detected language, improving communication accuracy.

### NLP Score

The "NLP Score" is a numerical value between 0 and 1 used to assess the relevance and quality of text for Natural Language Processing (NLP) neural networks. This score helps in classifying and processing text more effectively.

### Search Score

The "Search Score" is a value between 0 and 1 that influences the consideration of Full Text Search as a content retrieval method. A higher score indicates a greater emphasis on search-based content retrieval.

### Transfer To

The "Transfer To" setting is a comma-separated list of mobile numbers to which the bot will transfer chats from WhatsApp. This feature facilitates the rerouting of conversations to designated contacts or support agents.

### WhatsApp Admins

The "WhatsApp Admins" field is a comma-separated list of mobile numbers designated as administrators for the bot. These individuals have elevated access and control over the bot’s settings and operations.

### Feedback Improve.Message

The "Feedback Improve.Message" is a predefined message that the bot will send to users when it fails to find the requested information. This message encourages users to provide feedback or try different queries.

### Keep Text

The "Keep Text" setting is a comma-separated list of words or phrases that should remain unchanged during the bot’s understanding process. This feature ensures that specific terms are preserved and accurately recognized.

### Debug Web Automation

The "Debug Web Automation" setting indicates whether the Bot Admin Number should receive screenshots of each web automation step. Enabling this feature provides detailed visibility into web automation processes.

### .gbapp List

The ".gbapp List" is a collection of associated .gbapp packages linked to the .gbot. This list helps in managing and organizing the bot’s application packages.

### Group Spell

The "Group Spell" option enables the spell checker for group interactions. When activated, the bot will check and correct spelling errors in group chat messages.

### Synchronize Database

The "Synchronize Database" setting determines whether the TABLE keyword should modify the database. Setting this to TRUE allows changes to the database schema, while FALSE should be used in production environments to prevent unintended modifications.
