Tips for Best Results

• Provide Context: The more details you enter in the event fields (e.g., title and event description), the better the AI-generated content will align with your event.
• Experiment with Styles: Try different styles to find the tone that suits your audience (e.g., Casual for informal events, Professional for business gatherings).
• Monitor Credits: Keep an eye on your OpenAI account balance to avoid interruptions—check usage data in the EventON AI settings.
• Reset Usage Data: If you want a fresh start, reset the AI usage counter in the settings (this doesn’t affect your OpenAI credits).

Troubleshooting

• AI Assist Not Loading: Ensure your OpenAI API key is valid and has sufficient credits. Verify the key in EventON > Settings > AI Addon.
• No Content Generated: Check your internet connection and confirm the selected ChatGPT model is supported by your API key.
• Permission Denied: If a user can’t access AI Assist, confirm their role has permission in the addon settings.
