Lis - Send System Instructions

Send system instructions to Lis

Overview

This node, named "Lis - Send System Instructions," is designed to send system instructions messages to a service called Lis. It allows users to specify a conversation thread and deliver custom instruction data through different chat interfaces. This can be useful in scenarios where automated system-level commands or configurations need to be sent to an ongoing chat session managed by Lis, such as setting up context, controlling bot behavior, or injecting metadata.

Practical examples include:

  • Sending configuration commands to a chatbot session identified by a thread ID.
  • Delivering system-level instructions to a WhatsApp chat interface or via an API interface.
  • Automating control messages for customer support conversations handled by Lis.
