Description

Our team decided to create a Watson Orchestrate flow that would take as input a meeting transcript, summarize it, post the summary to a Trello card and a Slack channel. We also added a Next Steps skill that would extract out potential next steps to be taken from the meeting like setting up a new meeting, sending out emails, etc.

We followed similar steps as the Generate Welcome Message in Watsonx.ai and broadcast it over Slack example.

Steps

1. We first created a custom User Default Settings skill to set up some of the defaults like Trello board, Slack channel IDs (Slack), WatsonX text prompts

2. We used the ready-to-import Watsonx content generation skill, defaulted to the prompt to train the model on how to Summarize, and requested meeting transcript be added to the input text body

3. We used the ready-to-import Watsonx content generation skill, defaulted to the prompt to train the model on how to how to extract Next Steps

4. We created a custom skill to add a note to a Trello card

5. We used an out of the box skill to post to a Slack channel

6. Once we had all of the necessary skills, we combined them into a flow to prompt user for meeting transcript, send the resulting summary into the Trello skill to post onto a card, and send resulting summary into the Slack skill to post to the channel

Challenges and Considerations:

• We had to experiment with how to default the watsonx.ai skills with the training text to get the desired results

• One of the team members used Code Engine to deploy some node code to bypass the double authentication requirement for Trello

• In order to quickly have permissions to post to a slack channel, we had to sign up for Slack using private email and create a public slack channel

• We were able to divide up the tasks among the team, however it took us a bit to figure out how to import the skills to our team area so we could all access them and build our workflow
