This catalog service provides a pre-configured Contextual flow designed to demonstrate how to send a search query to the Perplexity AI API, receive a detailed AI-generated response, and store the result for further use. It includes the necessary configuration for the Perplexity AI API connection, where you will need to input your custom credentials to enable the flow.

The flow is built to accept a user-defined prompt, send it to the Perplexity AI API, and return the AI-generated response, which is then stored as a record in Contextual. This can be easily tested within the flow editor by using the inject button to send a sample prompt and observe the output. Alternatively, this flow can be triggered from another flow, bound to an agent, or activated via an external action, enabling flexible use cases such as dynamic search queries or automated data processing.

In this example, the flow uses sample data to simulate a user prompt, formats it into a payload suitable for the API request, and logs the response, making it accessible for further analysis or reporting. The flow is ideal for anyone looking to integrate AI-powered search and response mechanisms into their systems, allowing for enhanced research capabilities, content retrieval, or search summaries. This setup is versatile, enabling it to be adapted to various use cases such as market research, customer inquiry handling, or information gathering workflows, and can be seamlessly integrated into broader automated processes.
