Summary
Configuration changes are only useful if validated under live-like conditions. This article gives a repeatable rollout loop. For operators, this page should be used as a decision surface, not only as a UI form. Always pair page actions with downstream validation in the relevant live workflow.
What this page is for
- Prevent silent misconfiguration.
- Detect regressions quickly after edits.
- Standardize QA across operators.
Before you start
- Define success criteria for the change.
- Pick one test scenario in Fan Inbox.
- Capture baseline response samples.
Step-by-step workflow
- Apply a small coherent config change.
- Click Sync Changes.
- Open Fan Inbox and run prepared test scenario.
- Compare output with baseline.
- If good, record result and continue next change.
- If bad, rollback immediately and note root cause.
Key states and error handling
- Saved does not mean optimal; validation is mandatory.
- Multiple simultaneous edits complicate root-cause analysis.
- Regression risk rises with broad ungrouped edits.
Best practices
- Batch by intent (persona vs behavior vs profile).
- Use same prompts for A/B comparison.
- Keep concise change logs.
Troubleshooting
- If no impact is observed, verify bot context and sync completion.
- If quality drops, rollback most recent batch first.
- If issue persists, isolate tab-level changes and test separately.
- If issue persists after one clean retry, capture exact toast/banner text, selected bot, and timestamp before escalation.
Validate fixes in the real page flow before closing the issue.
UI reference (what each control does)
- Bot selector defines the full configuration scope; wrong selection causes false diagnostics.
- General tab contains baseline behavior and voice mode controls used in most conversations.
- AI Persona tab configures stylistic identity and voice consistency across long threads.
- Creator Information tab enriches factual context and coherence in responses.
- Sync Changes is the commit action; unsynced edits should not be considered deployed.
- Profile completion is a quality signal, not a guarantee of conversion quality.
- No-bot and no-node states are explicit and should be resolved before tuning.
- Every major change must be validated in live-like Fan Inbox scenarios.
Operator checklist (before shipping changes)
- Freeze target bot selection before editing any field.
- Batch changes by intent (behavior, persona, profile) to simplify rollback.
- Sync after each coherent batch rather than one massive final save.
- Run controlled test prompts after each sync cycle.
- Capture before/after examples for quality comparison.
- Rollback immediately if tone or negotiation quality degrades.
Real-world scenario
Conversion quality drops after persona edits. The operator identifies the exact sync batch, rolls back conflicting persona instructions, re-syncs, and validates improvement with a controlled fan-style test sequence.
- Identify the exact scope (bot, period, module) before any change.
- Apply one targeted correction based on observed UI state and messages.
- Validate outcome in the live operational flow linked to this page.
- Document the final state so future incidents can be solved faster.
Do not close incidents on UI-only confirmation. Always validate the full user journey end to end.
