Note: For the Ticket matching functionality or Knowledge Search, you will need your own database connection in Azure if you opt for the Azure AI Search. This connection is separate to the AI connection. As this connection is separate, you are able to use your own Azure AI search service whilst using the default Halo connection for all other AI functionality. If you would like to use Halo's AWS OpenSearch service, then please request credentials for the database connection from Halo support.
