# Smart Assist

Smart Assist is a compilation of several Views or Slider Groups.

The difference from [↗ Slider Groups](/collection/platform/smart-views/slider-groups.md) consists of the following aspects:

* Smart Assist can consist of both Views and Slider Groups
* Slider Groups are intended for public use - Smart Assist is intended for individual users or user groups.
* Slider Groups look the same for all users - Smart Assist can be customized for individual users.
* Slider Groups switch automatically between Views - In Smart Assist, the user can switch between Views independently.
* Slider Groups can be password-protected or freely accessible - Smart Assist is always password-protected. A user logs in with their BuildingPro Suites credentials to access "their" Smart Assist.
* Smart Views can also be viewed without an BuildingPro Suites account - An BuildingPro Suites account is always necessary for Smart Assist.

## Open Smart Assist

  ▷ The "Smart Views" workspace opens.
* Click on **\[B]**

  ▷ The **"Smart Assist"** window opens

Smart Assist can also be opened by appending the suffix ***/sa*** to the URL of your BuildingPro Suites instance.

A corresponding link could then look like this: [www.demo.eliona.i\&#x6F;\*\*/sa](http://www.demo.eliona.i\&#x6F;**/sa)\*\*

What content a user sees in their Smart Assist depends on which Views/Slider Groups are [↗ configured ](/collection/platform/smart-views/slider-groups.md)for them.

## Configure Smart Assist for Users

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.buildings.ability.abb/collection/platform/smart-views/smart-assist.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

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.
