Playground
Use the Playground to ask questions, draft content, and work with documents in Bunyan. You can summarize an attachment, find information in a collection, or compare documents in the same conversation.
Start a Conversation
- Sign in to Bunyan and open Playground.
- Check the model name below the message box. Select it to choose another available model.
- Write your question and select the send button, or press Enter. Use Shift+Enter for a new line.
- Ask a follow-up question in the same conversation to refine the answer.
For example:
Draft a short email asking a supplier to confirm the delivery date. Use a professional tone.
The Playground uses Agentic chat: Bunyan can answer directly or use available tools to complete your request. You do not need to choose a chat mode before sending a message.
Choose a Model and Language
Open the model menu below the message box, then open the model list to select an available configuration. Search by name if needed. On a smaller screen, select the model/settings button to open the settings panel.
The same menu includes Language, with Auto, English, and Arabic options.
If a model you need is missing, check its availability with your organization administrator.
Work with Documents
| Your task | How to start |
|---|---|
| Ask about an existing collection or document | Type @, search for its name, and select the matching item. |
| Ask about a file on your computer | Select the paperclip button, upload the file, and wait until it is ready. |
| Summarize or compare documents | Select the documents with @ and describe the output you want. |
See Ask Questions About Documents for detailed steps and examples.
Use Tools
Open the folder-shaped tools button below the message box to choose a collection, document, web search, workflow, or connected tool. You can also ask Bunyan to create a downloadable file. See Playground Tools for available capabilities and example requests.
Reuse Instructions and Connect Services
Create a Blueprint to reuse instructions, model preferences, and selected tools across conversations. Add an MCP connection to make tools from an external service available in the Playground.
Confidential Conversations
For a temporary chat that is not saved to conversation history, start a fresh conversation and select Confidential mode. The active session shows an expiry countdown. See Confidential Mode for document access, session expiry, and tool behavior.
Continue or Start Fresh
Open a saved conversation from the Conversations sidebar to continue it. Select the + button in that sidebar to start a new conversation for a different task. If the sidebar is collapsed, use the sidebar button to open it.
