Quick Start
Start a conversation in Bunyan, then ask a question about a document. You need a Bunyan account and access to an available language model.
1. Select Your Workspace
Sign in to Bunyan. Open Settings → Organizations and select Switch To beside your team's organization if needed.
Use the project selector at the top of the page to choose your project. If you need a new project, select Manage Projects, then Create Project. See Project Settings for the full steps.
2. Start a Playground Conversation
-
Open Playground.
-
Check the model name below the message box. Open the model menu and choose an available configuration.

Enter a request and select the send button, or press Enter:
Draft a short email asking a supplier to confirm the delivery date. Use a professional tone.
-
Ask a follow-up in the same conversation:
Make it shorter and ask for a reply by Thursday.
If no model is available, ask your organization administrator to review your access and available configurations.
3. Ask About a File
-
Select the paperclip button below the message box.
-
Upload a short, text-based document from your computer. For this first example, use a PDF, Word document, Markdown file, or text file under 20 MiB.
-
Wait for the attachment to show Ready.
-
Type
@and select the attachment from the suggestions. -
Ask a question about its contents:
Summarize this document in three bullet points. Include a supporting passage for each point.
Check the answer against the original document. Ask a follow-up if you need a more specific section or explanation. See Ask Questions About Documents for all supported attachment formats and limits.
4. Reuse Documents in a Collection
For documents you want to organize and use across tasks:
- Open Document Collections and select Create New Collection.
- Enter a name, check the project, and select an available Embedding Model. Keep the initial chunk settings for this first collection, then select Create.
- Open the collection and select Upload → upload document.
- Choose a supported file, enter a Document Title, and select Upload.
- Use Refresh documents until the document shows Complete.
- Return to the Playground, type
@, and select the collection or document before asking your question.
Choose the matching item from the suggestions so it appears as a selected mention. Typing a name as plain text does not select a source.
See Collections and Upload Documents for sharing, supported formats, and other import options.
