Agent Naming Tips
If you are building multiple AI Agents, ensure each scenario is clearly named according to the agent's specific task for easier management later on.
Automation Credit Optimization
Avoid setting 'Scheduling' too frequently (e.g., every 15 minutes) if you only upload files once a day. Adjust the schedule according to your workflow habits to save on task/credit usage.
