After clicking ***+Add Agent***, the popup expands to reveal more fillable information. Please provide the following:

* **Select Chatbot:** Choose the AI Chatbot you want to add into the Agent Group. It has to be a pre-existing AI Chatbot you already created.
* **Agent Name:** Give your AI Chatbot an Agent Name to be used in the context of this Agent Group.
* **Model Provider (Optional):** Give a Model Provider of the AI Chatbot you've chosen for easy tracking in your dev team - this can be OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.
* **Description:** Describe the function of your AI Chatbot within this Agent Group. How will it help users compared to your other bots inside this Agent Group?
* **Example Queries:** Add examples of chats from users that this AI Chatbot will normally answer. This will teach the Agent Group to start routing users to this AI Chatbot if they spot questions that follow the pattern of your queries.&#x20;

Repeat the process by clicking ***Add Agent*** to add as many AI Chatbots as your Agent Group needs.

## Finish your Agent Group setup

When done, click ![Finish your Agent Group set up by clicking "Create Group" after filling out everything inside the "Create New Agent Group" popup](/files/MozGYesSafMM2VWdMlDD)

## 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://manual.captivatechat.ai/start-creating/create-an-agent-group/create-new-agent-group.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.
