What agents do with it
Triage and route
Workflows act on category, author, trust level, keyword, and sentiment.
Know who is asking
Each post carries the author’s email, trust level, and admin flag, so staff and new accounts can route differently.
Auto-reply bots
Your team sets up bots for common questions.
Set it up
- Create a Sift agent user in Discourse with admin or moderator rights.
- Generate an API key scoped to that user with the scopes in the docs.
- Add a webhook in Discourse that points to Sift.
- Paste the API key and community URL into Sift.
