Introduction

Google’s AI agent is a RAG-based AI that optimizes its answers on content from your website.

This application exposes the agent via a customizable icon on all pages of your website.

Follow the steps below to create an AI agent that will use the content of your web site.

Log in to Google Cloud: https://console.cloud.google.com
Use an existing project, or create a new.
From the Solutions menu, choose Artificial Intelligence → AI builder
Click + CREATE APP. Select the Search app type and give it suitable identifier.
Use the standard settings, but fill in App name and Company name before you move on
In the next screen, click + CREATE DATASTORE and select Website content
Check Advanced indexing, fill in the URL to your website and continue
Give the datastore a suitable name and click Create. This will take you back to the list of available datastores.
Select the freshly created datastore, and click Create once more. This will add the datastore to your search agent, and create it.

You may need to verify your ownership of the website, follow the instructions to complete this
Once the datastore is fully indexed (may take quite a while) you can try the agent from the preview panel.

You may also fine-tune the search agent via the configuration tab

Once the Agent is working, you must create a service account in order to access it safely.

In the Google Cloud menu, go to IAM & Admin → Service Accounts
Click + CREATE SERVICE ACCOUNT. Give it a suitable name and continue
Select the role Discovery Engine Service Agent and Vertex AI Service Agent and create the service account.
Open the freshly created service account, and select the Keys tab
Create a new key in JSON format. The key will automatically be downloaded to your machine by your browser.

Look for the key file in your computer’s Downloads folder

You are now ready to install the "Google AI Search Agent" app. It is available on Enonic Market.

You must now add the JSON key file to your XP configurasjon. This will allow the application to communicate with Google.

Rename the JSON key file to google-service-account.json and place it in your XP configuration folder.

Optionally specify a different location or file name by adding an app configuration file that overrides the default location:

com.enonic.app.googleaisearchagent.cfg

google.serviceAccountJson=${xp.home}/config/custom-service-file.json

The final step is about adding the app to your site.

Start by opening your Agent in Google Cloud one final time

Select the Integrations tab. Make sure JWT/Oauth is selected (should be default)
Type in the domain name where you will be hosting the agent, and click ADD
Copy the configID value listed in the script, you will need it soon.

The final step is adding the app to your site.

The AI agent icon is currently hidden in Content Studio Preview.

In Content Studio, open the site where you want to deploy the search agent.

From the applications field, click Add, and select the Google AI search agent app.
From the app list, click the pencil icon to edit the app configuration
Fill in the configID you grabbed in the previous step, and optionally tune the Agent visuals using the other options in the form.
Save and publish the changes.

You should now be able to see the AI agent on your live website!
