7.2 Knowledge Base Integration Logic
Step 1: Content Analysis
For each processed call:
1. Extract key terms from transcript using AI
2. Identify call category using processing templates
3. Generate semantic search queries for knowledge base
4. Score relevance of KB articles (0.0-1.0)
5. Filter articles by minimum relevance threshold (configurable, default 0.6)
Step 2: Article Matching & Linking
For each relevant KB article:
1. Auto-link articles with relevance score >0.8
2. Suggest articles with score 0.6-0.8 for manual review
3. Log all matches for analytics and improvement
4. Track staff feedback on article usefulness
Step 3: Ticket Enhancement
For ticket creation:
1. Include transcript as ticket description
2. Add AI analysis summary in custom field
3. Auto-link high-confidence KB articles
4. Add suggested articles to ticket notes
5. Create related tasks based on KB article procedures
7.3 Advanced AI Processing Workflow
Enhanced Processing Pipeline:
1. Call Import → NLPearl API fetches new calls
2. Ticket Creation → Auto-create ticket with transcript as description
3. Template Matching → Classify call using processing templates
4. AI Analysis → Process against template-specific qualifying questions
5. Knowledge Base Search → Find relevant articles using semantic search
6. Entity Extraction → Identify customers, leads, dates, products
7. Action Generation → Create leads, tasks, events based on analysis
8. Assignment Logic → Route ticket using Daedelix's existing assignment rules
9. Staff Notification → Alert assigned staff with context and suggestions
10. Continuous Learning → Log accuracy for template improvement
AI Prompt Structure for Knowledge Base Integration:
System Context: You are analyzing a customer service call transcript to create a ticket and suggest relevant knowledge base articles.
Call Information:
- Caller: {caller_name} ({caller_phone})
- Date: {call_date}
- Duration: {call_duration}
Transcript: {full_transcript}
Available Knowledge Base Categories: {kb_categories}
Processing Template: {template_name}
Template Questions: {qualifying_questions}
Tasks:
1. Answer each qualifying question based on the transcript
2. Suggest 3-5 relevant KB articles by searching for: {kb_search_terms}
3. Recommend ticket priority (1-4) and department
4. Identify any follow-up actions needed
5. Extract key entities (customer info, products, dates, issues)
Output Format: {structured_json_format}
