Import bot

Import makes your own copy. Review what it can do before you use it.

Method

  1. 01

    Import the bot

    Open the share link and choose Add to Grok Bot. You get a copy with its getting-started skill and its limits.

  2. 02

    Say hi

    It treats this as day one and picks a single job. It does not open with a tour of the product.

  3. 03

    Answer one question

    It asks which job to finish. Gmail and Calendar are optional. If you would rather not connect them, paste the text it needs.

  4. 04

    Finish that job

    You leave the sitting with the job done, or with a clear stop if the next move would need a login you have not given.

  5. 05

    Take the next-step tip

    It ends with one suggestion for what to set up next, and it waits. It does not go on and do that too.
