I’m interested in creating a chatbot that can tell you the latest news.  How do I incorporate real-time data with the existing Zapier chatbot support?  Currently, it’s just a file upload.  Thank you!

Hi @stp , welcome to the Community! 👋

That’s such a great idea! You’re right, the data source feature for the Chatbot component currently only allows for a file to be added as the data source. I couldn’t see any existing feature requests for this. So I’d recommend reaching out to the Interfaces team to put in a request for the ability to allow a website to be selected as the data source.

You can do that here: https://eap.zapier.app/interfaces

Hope that helps! 🙂
