Building Your AI Assistant: Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Setting Up Blandy AI

Blandy is the conversational AI platform we’ll use. They make it super simple with an easy API integration.

1. Sign Up: Head to Blandy.ai and create a free account.

2. Get Your API Key: Navigate to your profile, find the API Keys section, and copy your secret key.

Step 2: Creating a Google Sheet

Create a simple Google Sheet with two columns: phone numbers and instructions. Here’s a quick example:

Step 3: Connecting Google Sheets to Make.com

1. Google Sheets Module: Set up a scenario in Make.com to pull data from your Google Sheet.

2. Search Rows Module: Ensure it returns the phone number and instructions.

Step 4: Making the API Call

Here’s where the magic happens. We’ll set up an HTTP request to Blandy’s API to make the call.

1. HTTP Request Module: Add this to your scenario in Make.com.

2. Set Up the Call:

   • Method: POST

   • URL: https://api.blandy.ai/v1/calls

   • Headers:

     • Content-Type: application/json

     • Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY

3. Body:

    jsonCopy code{
      "phone_number": "{{phone_number}}",
      "task": "{{instructions}}"
    }
   

Advanced Features: Analyzing the Call

Blandy doesn't just make calls—it can also analyze them! Here’s how to check if the appointment was rescheduled.

1. Analyze Call Endpoint:

   • Method: POST

   • URL: https://api.blandy.ai/v1/analyze

   • Body:

       jsonCopy code{
         "call_id": "{{call_id}}",
         "goal": "Identify if the appointment was rescheduled and the new time.",
         "questions": [
           "Was the appointment rescheduled?",
           "What time was the appointment rescheduled to?"
         ]
       }
     

2. Sleep Module: Add a delay to wait for the call to complete.

3. Parse the Response: Use the response data to update your Google Sheet or CRM with the new appointment time.

Putting It All Together

You now have a fully automated system where Blandy calls your clients, confirms appointments, and updates your records. Welcome to the future!
