The Blockbrain chat extension brings your Blockbrain assistant, agents and knowledge into SharePoint Online. It sits on every page of the sites where your IT team has added it, and it knows the page, folder or file you are on. It only sees the files you can already open. No switching to another tab, no copy and paste. ### What you can do {% columns %} {% column width="50%" %} #### Find answers across SP {% embed url="" %} {% endcolumn %} {% column width="50%" %} #### Create where you work {% embed url="" %} {% endcolumn %} {% endcolumns %} ### What you need * **SharePoint Online (Microsoft 365)** in your browser, signed in with your work account. * **A Blockbrain account.** If Blockbrain asks you to sign in, use your work email. * **The chat extension on your site.** Your IT team adds it to the sites where your company wants it. ### How you get it * **Your IT team adds Blockbrain to your SharePoint sites.** Nothing to install. After that, Blockbrain appears at the bottom right of every page on those sites. * **You are the admin who sets it up.** Follow [SharePoint Chat Extension for admins](/for-admins/web-components/sharepoint-chat-extension.md). ### Where to find Blockbrain | Step | What to do | | ---------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Open it | On any page of your site, click **Blockbrain AI** at the bottom right. The chat panel opens on the right. | | Switch the agent | Click the agent name at the top of the panel, for example **In-Sharepoint Agent**, and choose another agent from the list. | {% hint style="info" %} **You stay in control.** Blockbrain only sees what you can already open in SharePoint. Before it creates or changes anything, such as a folder, a file or a page, it shows an approval card and waits. Choose **Allow Once** to approve just that step. {% endhint %} ### Prompts to try | What you want | Try this | | ------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Get your bearings on a site | I'm new here. What can I find on this site, and where should I look first? | | Find a guideline and the answer | How do I set up my e-mail signature in Outlook? Find our guideline and give me the steps. | | Read in your language | Summarize the German version of the whitepaper in this folder in English: five bullets, one line each. | | Compare two versions | Compare the two versions. Which topics does only the long version cover?

GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters: ``` GET https://docs.blockbrain.ai/for-users/web-components/sharepoint-chat-extension.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
