AI Settings
Configure your account-level AI preferences to control how AI features work across your sites. These settings provide the foundation for AI functionality and can be overridden at the site level. Access AI settings through Settings > AI.
Account-Level AI Features
Control which AI features are enabled for your account:
Enable AI Chat
Master Switch: Enable or disable AI Chat functionality for your account
When Enabled:
- AI Chat becomes available throughout your account
- You can use AI Chat features on sites where enabled
- AI models can be selected and used
When Disabled:
- AI Chat is completely disabled for your account
- No AI Chat features are available
- Site-level AI settings cannot override this
Organization Policy: If your organization has policies controlling AI Chat, you'll see policy indicators showing whether this setting is controlled or defaulted by your organization.
Enable AI Chat for My Sites
Site-Level Control: Allow AI Chat to be enabled on sites you own

- Useful for accounts that don't want AI Chat on sites
Relationship: This setting works in conjunction with the master "Enable AI Chat" switch. Both must be enabled for AI Chat to work on sites.
Enable AI Document Summaries
Document Summaries: Enable AI-powered document summarization
When Enabled:
- AI can generate summaries for supported documents

Default AI Model Selection
Choose your preferred AI model for AI Chat interactions:
Model Selection
Navigate to Settings > AI > Default AI Model to select from available models:
Model Options: Select from industry-leading AI models
Available Models:
- Different models offer different capabilities
- Models vary in cost (credit consumption)
- Some models may be plan-restricted
Model Characteristics:
- Efficiency: Some models are more efficient (lower credit cost)
- Capability: Advanced models offer better performance
- Speed: Models vary in response time
- Features: Some models support additional features
Organization Policy Control
Permitted Models: If your organization has a policy specifying permitted models:
Policy Indicator: You'll see a policy indicator showing model selection is controlled
Model Restrictions: You can only select from models permitted by your organization
Policy Display: The indicator shows which models are available based on organization policy
Flexibility: Even with organization control, you can choose from permitted models
Model Selection Impact
AI Chat Performance: Selected model affects AI Chat response quality and capabilities
Credit Consumption: Different models consume credits at different rates
Feature Availability: Some features may only work with specific models
Default Behavior: Selected model is used as default, but can be changed per chat if needed
Organization Policy Indicators
Understand how organization policies affect your AI settings:
Policy Indicator Icons
Policy Icon: Small icon indicates organization policy control
Tooltip Information: Hover over indicators for details about the policy
Color Coding: Different colors indicate policy type or enforcement level
Understanding Indicators
Organization Controlled: Setting is controlled by organization policy (strict mode)
- Setting is locked and cannot be changed
- Organization policy value is enforced
Organization Default: Setting uses organization default but can be modified (non-strict mode)
- You can modify the setting (if making it less permissive)
- Organization provides the default value
No Policy: No organization policy affects this setting
- Full control over the setting
- No policy indicators shown
Policy Impact
Strict Mode: When organization uses strict enforcement, settings are locked to organization values
Non-Strict Mode: When organization uses non-strict enforcement, you can modify settings within policy constraints
Less Permissive Rule: In non-strict mode, you can disable features organization allows, but cannot enable features organization restricts
Relationship Between Account and Site Settings
Understanding how account and site settings interact:
Hierarchy
Settings follow this hierarchy (highest to lowest):
- Organization Policy (if applicable): Overrides or provides defaults
- Account Settings: Your personal account preferences
- Site Settings: Site-specific overrides
Account Settings as Foundation
Base Configuration: Account settings provide the foundation for AI features
Site Overrides: Site settings can further restrict (but not enable if disabled at account level)
Example: If account-level AI Chat is disabled, site settings cannot enable it
Site Settings Override
Site-Level Control: Each site can have its own AI settings
Restriction Only: Site settings can only restrict features enabled at account level
Granular Control: Allows different AI configurations for different sites
Use Cases:
- Enable AI Chat on some sites but not others
- Use different AI models for different sites
- Control AI features per collaboration space
Best Practices
Feature Management
Enable What You Need: Enable only the AI features you actually use to optimize credit consumption
Start Conservative: Begin with fewer features enabled and add more as needed
Regular Review: Periodically review enabled features to ensure they're still needed
Model Selection
Match to Needs: Select models that match your use cases and requirements
Consider Costs: Balance model capabilities with credit consumption
Test Different Models: Try different models to find the best fit for your needs
Organization Policies
Understand Policies: Review organization policies to understand constraints
Work Within Constraints: Configure settings within policy limitations
Request Changes: Contact administrators if policy changes are needed
Site Configuration
Site-Specific Settings: Configure AI settings per site based on site needs
Consistent Strategy: Develop a consistent strategy for AI feature usage across sites
Document Decisions: Document why certain settings are chosen for future reference
