We're taking a deeper look at some of our integrations, including this one. In the meantime, some of the functionality described here may not work as expected. Thank you for your patience.

Installing QnA Maker

Navigate to the Chatbot homepage and click on 'Third Party Bots'. Click 'Install Bot' under Azure QnA Maker.

A pop-up window will appear. Click 'Install'. On the next page, review the app permissions and click 'Authorize Access'. You will be redirected to Acquire to complete the app settings and connect your bot.

Enter your app_url, endpoint_key, and knowledge_base_id and click 'Save'. This information is available in your QnA Maker knowledge base. Navigate to Settings > Deployment Details > Postman to find the values.
Deploying QnA Maker in Your Widget

In Acquire, head to Settings > Workflows > Business Rules. Create a Business Rule to deploy the Azure QnA Maker bot. Once the Business Rule is live, QnA Maker question-answer pairs will be available in your Chat Widget.
