Generation & Chat Capabilities

View as Markdown

Generation and chat capabilities extend language-model selection with task-specific tools and user experience settings. Configure only the capabilities that the deployment can support and that people are authorized to use.

Configure providers

Start with the credentials and catalog models required by the capability. In Models & Capabilities, enable the supported service or model, complete its protected configuration, and save the change. Keep each configuration aligned with the organization’s access and data-handling requirements.

Deployment conditions

Capability visibility and behavior depend on deployment configuration, available services, and administrator settings. A capability may be absent or disabled even when it is documented here.

Review the deployment before promising a capability to users. Do not enable a workflow until its required model access, service configuration, and authorization boundaries have been verified.

Verify each capability

Test every enabled capability with a representative, approved request. Confirm the expected result, verify that unauthorized people do not receive access, and record any service-specific operating limits for the administrators who maintain it.
