Kore.ai provides integration for a built-in Kiln Bot that you can use to display message notifications and execute tasks directly from the Kore.ai application. To use the Kiln Bot, you just need to add the Bot to your Kore.ai account, and then configure the settings for the Bot, such as authentication to access Kiln, and the notification messages that you want. This topic describes the Kiln built-in Bot for Kore.ai. For more information about other Kore.ai Bots, see Adding Bots

Configuring KilnÂ
To configure a Kiln webhook for Kore.ai, you must have a Kiln account with administrator access as well as API access to configure a webhook. If you don’t, you’ll need to contact the Kiln system administrator for your company. For more information, see the Project and Repository Permissions in the Kiln documentation.
To get started configuring the webhook in Kiln, you’ll need two things:
- The Kore.ai webhook URL provided when you set up an alert in your Kore.ai account for each alert that you want to enable in Kiln.
- A valid Username and Password for an account with Kiln API access.
The webhook URL is account-specific and cannot be transferred to any other account. This means that if you configure a Kiln webhook using a test account, you will have to recreate the alert and get a new webhook URL to configure in Kiln. The following URL is an example webhook URL.
https://company.kore.com/hooks/c6089802f36250c179dcb1aa29afd24c
