Message to Data
Message to Data turns a message, such as the one coming from a chat or an AI model, into a data record. You need it when the next component only accepts data and not messages.
When to use it
- Save an agent’s reply in a spreadsheet or database that expects data.
- Pass what a user writes in the chat to components that filter or transform data.
- Combine a message with other records using components such as Merge Data.
Configuration
| Field | What it does |
|---|---|
| Message | The message you want to convert. Connect it to the output of a chat, an agent or a model. |
Output
- Data: a record with the message text in the
textfield and the information that comes with it, such as the sender and the date. If what arrives is not a message, the record contains anerrorfield with the explanation.
Example
An agent answers your customers’ questions and you want to save each reply in a tracking sheet. You connect the agent’s output to Message to Data and its Data output to the component that writes to the sheet. Each reply is logged as a row with its text.
