How do I find my Chaindesk API Key?

Log in to your Chaindesk.ai account, navigate to **Settings** > **API Keys**, and generate a new key for your integration.

A Datastore is a collection of documents and URLs that your AI agent uses as its knowledge base to answer queries accurately.

Can I maintain conversation context via AI?

Yes! Provide a unique `conversationId` to the `query_agent` tool to maintain historical context across multiple turns with your custom bot.
