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.
Introduction
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 sharing
To make your agent publicly accessible:
- Open your agent in Studio
- Navigate to the Sharing tab
- Toggle Enable Public Access to ON
- A unique shareable URL will be generated automatically
The shareable URL
Your shareable URL looks like this:
https://studio.stellarcs.ai/connect/[agent-id]?token=[unique-token]
- The URL includes a secure token that grants access to your agent
- Anyone with this URL can have a voice conversation with your agent
- The URL remains valid as long as public sharing is enabled
Adding a notification message
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 notification
Welcome! This is a demo of ACME's customer support agent.
You can ask questions about our company, products and services.
Sharing your agent
Once public access is enabled:
- 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
Before sharing your agent publicly, we recommend testing it thoroughly with your team in the playground first.
Managing public access
You can control public access at any time:
Disabling public access
- Go to the Sharing tab
- Toggle Enable Public Access to OFF
- The URL will immediately stop working
Generating a new URL
If you need to revoke access and create a new link:
- Disable public access
- Re-enable public access
- A new URL with a different token will be generated
- The old URL will no longer work
What happens when someone uses your link
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 deployment
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.
