AI Workbooks

Workbooks are interactive documents that combine responses from generative AI models to create unique AI-powered applications and workflows. A workbook enables you to string together various generative AI models to build powerful applications. In a workbook, you can connect text, image, and audio models in a single environment.

Create a Workbook​

You can create a new workbook directly from the left navigation bar or from the Workbooks page.

  1. Click on Workbooks in the left-hand navigation
  2. Click on New workbook at the top-right of the Workbooks page

Workbook Parameters​

Parameterizing your AI workbook allows you to create dynamic, reusable AI templates. This feature is similar to parameterizing Jupyter notebooks and offers a range of benefits, including increased efficiency and consistency in your workflows. Parameterization is a powerful tool for managing and optimizing your AI workflows.

Here are our favorite AI Templates to get you started on parameterization:

What are parameters?​

Parameters are variables that you can define and pass into any cell within your workbook. You can set both global parameters and local parameters.

For example, you can define parameters such as language or product in a cell like this with the handlebars syntax as shown below: | "Write a LinkedIn DM in {{language}} as a sales rep selling {{product}}."

Global Parameters​

You can set global parameters (workbook parameters) for your entire workbook. Click on '' on the top of your workbook and set your global parameters that can be used in any cell of the workbook.

Local Parameters​

To change the parameters, open 'Parameters '. You can then reuse this cell and update the language and product parameters to different values as needed.

You can reference parameters in the cell input and also the cell's system prompt (in Cell Settings).

Note: Local parameters will override the global parameters if they have the same name.

Referencing Output from One Cell in Another​

In addition to defining and passing parameters within a single cell, you can also reference the output from one cell in another cell. This allows you to create complex, interconnected workflows within your workbook.

For example, you might have a cell that generates a LinkedIn DM, and another cell that rewords that DM and translates it into a different language. You could set this up using parameters and cell references like this:

| “Reword ‘{{gpt4_cell_1.output}}’ in the form of ‘{{shakespeare_cell.output}}’, and translate to {{language}}”.

Running a Workbook or Cells​

You have two options for running cells that reference other cells:

  • Run a Cell (execute with dependencies): This will run the selected cell and all its dependencies, ensuring that all necessary data and outputs are up-to-date.
  • Run All: This will execute the entire workbook, running all cells and handling dependencies.

Share & Collaborate​

Share a Workbook​

You can change the sharing settings of the workbook by clicking the Share button in the top right-hand corner.

  • Private - Your workbook starts out as private which means only you have access to view and edit.
  • Public - When you make your workbook public, anyone with the link to your workbook will be able to view it. Only you will be able to edit the workbook.
  • Organization - You can share your workbook with members of an organization.
