Share your agent
Once you're happy with how your agent performs in the playground, you can share it with stakeholders for testing and feedback. Studio makes it easy to get input from colleagues, managers, or beta testers before deploying to production.
Introductionโ
Your team members with access to Stellar Studio can always test your agent using the Playground. But sometimes you want to allow others to test your agent as well. This is why we created public sharing.
Some basics to understand about public sharing:
- Creates a special URL that anyone can use to test your agent
- Perfect for gathering feedback from stakeholders and beta testers
- You control when public access is enabled or disabled
- Note: This is meant for testing only, not for production customer deployments
Enabling public sharingโ
To make your agent publicly accessible:
- Open your agent in Studio
- Navigate to the Sharing tab
- Toggle Enable Public Access to ON
- Shareable URLs will be generated for each environment (Development, Staging, Production)
The shareable URLโ
Your shareable URL looks like this:
https://studio.stellarcs.ai/connect/[agent-id]?token=[unique-token]
- Each environment has its own URL with a unique token
- Anyone with a URL can have a voice conversation with your agent
- Use the environment selector next to the copy button to switch between environments
Adding a notification messageโ
You can customize the message users see before they start a conversation:
- In the Notification Text field, enter a brief message
- This might include:
- Instructions for using the agent
- What the agent can help with
- Any limitations users should know about
Example notificationโ
Welcome! This is a demo of ACME's customer support agent.
You can ask questions about our company, products and services.
Sharing your agentโ
Once public access is enabled:
- Select the environment you want to share (e.g. Development for internal testing, Production for stakeholder demos)
- Copy the shareable URL
- Send it to team members, partners or other stakeholders
- They can click the link and immediately start a conversation
- No login or account required for them
:::tip Internal testing first Before sharing your agent publicly, we recommend testing it thoroughly with your team in the playground first. :::
Managing public accessโ
You can control public access at any time:
Disabling public accessโ
- Go to the Sharing tab
- Toggle Enable Public Access to OFF
- All public links will immediately stop working
Re-enabling public access restores the same URLs.
What happens when someone uses your linkโ
When someone accesses your public agent:
- They see your notification message
- They can click to start a voice conversation
- The conversation works just like in the playground
- All conversations are recorded and appear in your Conversations list
- You can review and analyze these conversations just like internal tests
Production deploymentโ
Public sharing links are for testing and gathering feedback only. For production deployments where real customers interact with your agent, you need to integrate with your phone system.
Production deployment is handled in collaboration with the Stellar team to ensure proper setup and configuration.
