## Simulation with AI Lens

Aisera AI Lens is a tool that allows Administrators to simulate their conversational bot with a webchat channel.\
\
**NOTE:** If you are a user with a custom role, make sure your role has at least the following permissions, which are required to view conversations with AI Lens:

* `intent` – **Read**
* `channels` – **Read**
* `AiseraGPT` – **Read**

### Getting Started <a href="#getting-started-pre-reqs-general-intro" id="getting-started-pre-reqs-general-intro"></a>

* Webchat channel is the default channel associated with the bot
* Select correct bot
* Login with a user

### Conversation Window <a href="#conversation-window" id="conversation-window"></a>

AI Lens lets you simulate the interaction with your bot. The simulated input **Requests** are not captured within the **Request Details** page. AI Lens is similar to runtime analysis.&#x20;

**To use AI Lens:**

1. Choose **AI Lens** in your Aisera Admin UI.
2. Select your bot from the pull-down list at the top of the **AI Lens** window. You will see a bot interface on the AI Lens window.
3. Add a **Request**. (AI Lens requests will not be recorded in Aisera analytics.)\

4. After you add a **Request**, you will see the bot functions on the right side of your window.

{% hint style="warning" %}
You can also test Workflows and Hyperflows using the [**Test the Node**](/aisera-platform/ai-automation-optimize-flow/ai-workflow-studio/testing-workflows.md#pdf-page-bwlrvkqhijiqw0zetekc-best-practices) button on the **AI** **Automation > AI Workflow Studio window.**
{% endhint %}

### AI Lens with Copilot Applications

Applications/bots that are using the Copilot channel default to Copilot mode in AI Lens. Applications without a Copilot channel correctly default to Webchat mode.
