Why do I need a template?
With templates, you can save your prompts and set custom input fields.
This means that you don't have to meddle with copy/pasting long prompts from your Notes app and changing certain words in parentheses each time.
The template above only shows 3 input fields: Topic, Keywords, Writing Tone. However, there is a hidden prompt in the back even though it's not visible:
This way, you can work with the same prompt over and over again for different cases. We allow you to customize your prompt however you like.
You can always go back to edit your template, too: adjust the instructions of the prompt behind your template and change the input fields whenever you need to!
Create your first template
1. Simply click on "Create your own template" within the ZenoChat interface:
2. From there, you'll need to fill out some basic information, such as the name and description of your template, but the most important aspect of your template will be the "Template Prompt".
Template Prompt is the pre-built recipe for your template to work as you wish it to. With your instructions, you'll define what the AI should do, how it should do it, and provide some dynamic input fields that can be filled out later by the user.
Template Example
For example, let's say you want to create a "Caption Generator" for your social media posts. Your template might look like this:
- Template Name: Caption Generator
- Template Description: This template is used to create social media captions for posts.
- Template Prompt: Act as a caption generator for social media posts. Create a social media caption for [Topic Name] and make sure to write the caption in a [Tone] way for [Target Audience].
The inputs in square brackets mean that they are dynamic input fields that can be filled in every time you start a new interaction with this template.
As you start configuring your template, you'll see that the "Preview" modal adapts in real-time, allowing you to test how it performs based on your prompt and provided inputs.
