Support article gap review from tickets

The support agent reviews unresolved themes in the ticket export, lists Cody documents in the support folder, creates missing draft documents from approved ticket summaries, and sends Cody a focused question to verify whether the new material answers the common issue. The support lead receives a Slack summary with the documents added, questions Cody can now answer, and any gaps that still need a human-written article.

Connect

How to plug Cody into Actionist

Pick the connection method that suits your environment.

Connect Cody with a bearer API key from Cody. Actionist stores the key in the credentials vault and uses it server-side for Cody API requests.

Create or copy your Cody API key

Open Cody developer settings or API documentation and generate an API key for the workspace you want Actionist to automate.

Paste the key into Actionist

In Actionist, open Cody in the Apps library and paste the key into the API key field. The key is stored as a credential, not embedded in prompts.

Test a read-only call

Actionist verifies the connection with a safe read call such as List Bots or List Folders before any write action is used.

FAQs

Questions about Cody + Actionist

How does Actionist connect to Cody?

Actionist connects to Cody through Cody AI API credentials. Cody documents bearer-token authentication in the Authorization header, so the Actionist setup asks for an API key, stores it in the credentials vault, and runs a read-only test such as listing bots or folders before write actions are used.

Does Cody provide native triggers for Actionist?

The scrape and Cody API reference did not expose Cody-native event triggers. For this page, Cody is treated as an action app: schedules or events from apps such as Google Drive, Notion, Gmail, Slack, Google Sheets, or Calendar start the agent, then the agent calls Cody actions within about a minute of the trigger firing.

What Cody actions can an agent perform?

The verified Cody API includes bots, folders, documents, conversations, messages, streaming messages, and upload signed URLs. That lets an Actionist agent organize folders, import approved text, files, or public webpages, create focused conversations, send Cody prompts, and list messages with sources or usage details.

Can Actionist upload files into Cody?

Yes. Cody documents a signed-upload URL endpoint and a create-document-from-file endpoint. Actionist can request the upload URL, upload an approved file through that flow, and then create a Cody document from the returned key. Cody documents supported file types such as text, Markdown, PDF, PowerPoint, and Word formats.

Can Actionist use Cody answers in Slack or Telegram?

Yes. Slack and Telegram are the supported Actionist chat channels. An agent can ask Cody a focused question, return the answer in Slack or Telegram, and include a review step when the answer is sensitive, incomplete, or based on documents that need approval.

Can Actionist create or update Cody knowledge automatically?

It can create folders, update folders, and create documents from approved sources. Destructive or sensitive changes should stay behind approval. This page does not claim autonomous deletion, and calendar jobs that touch legal, HR, finance, or compliance material route exceptions to a human owner.

What should teams use Cody automation for first?

Start with recurring knowledge hygiene: list folders and documents, import approved support or onboarding material, and test a few high-value Cody prompts each week. That gives the team measurable coverage without relying on unreviewed content or broad changes.

Is Cody the same as Sourcegraph Cody?

No. This page is for Cody AI at meetcody.ai, a business knowledge-base assistant with API endpoints at getcody.ai/api/v1. It is not the Sourcegraph Cody coding assistant.
