How to Start Using Document Assistant in Google Docs?

To use AiAssistWorks in Google Docs, follow these steps:

1. Open Google Docs:

   • Open your Google Docs file.
   • Access AiAssistWorks from the right sidebar. If you can't find it, follow this instruction.

2. Connect AI Provider:

   • If it's your first time using AiAssistWorks, you'll need to connect to an AI provider. Follow the provided instructions to do so.

3. Using AiAssistWorks Features:

   • Use Selected Text from Docs:

     • This option allows you to utilize the text you've selected in your document.
     • Make sure you have some text selected if you choose this option.
     • To select text, use the mouse or keyboard shortcuts (note: CTRL + A is not supported for selecting all text; use Shift + Down Arrow instead).
     • If you don't want to use selected text, uncheck this option.

   • Prompt (Optional):

     • You can provide a text prompt or additional information here.
     • You must use either the selected text from the document or a prompt; both cannot be empty.
     • The prompt can also include additional details for the action. For example, if you're using "translate to X," specify the target language (e.g., English) in this prompt input.

   • Action:

     • Use this to apply a saved action (prompt).
     • When processing data, AiAssistWorks will combine the selected text, prompt, and action (if any) to generate the output result.

   • Select AI Model:

     • Choose the AI model you want to use.
     • If you haven't connected an AI provider yet, follow the instructions provided here.

   • Replace Selected Text with Output Result:

     • Enable this option if you want to directly replace the selected text with the output result.

4. Start Processing:

   • Once all settings are configured, click "Start" to process your request.

5. Handling the Result:

   • Replace Selected Text:

     • Use this option to replace the selected text with the output result.
     • Ensure you've selected text from your document.

   • Add to Cursor:

     • This option allows you to insert the output result at the cursor's current position in your document.
     • Make sure your cursor is placed where you want to add the output result.
