Capabilities can vary
Search and research
Search, deep research, News, and Finance can summarize public information and cite sources, but they can still miss sources, encounter blocked pages, or return incomplete results for fast-changing topics. For important decisions:- Review citations.
- Open original sources.
- Check authoritative sources directly.
- Ask Babbily to list assumptions and confidence.
Long chats
Long threads can become harder to steer. Babbily may compact older context so a thread can continue, but old assumptions can still influence the conversation. Start a new thread when:- The topic changed.
- The context indicator is near the limit.
- You want a clean answer.
- Earlier files or instructions are no longer useful.
Canvas artifacts
Canvas artifacts work best for substantial drafts, tables, code, image briefs, and structured outputs. Simple answers may stay in chat. Export options depend on the artifact type. Connector actions depend on the connected app, your permissions, and connector readiness. If a structured artifact is still preparing, wait for the Canvas panel to finish loading before editing or exporting it.Connectors
Connector results depend on:- Whether the connector is connected.
- Your role in the connected app.
- App permissions and workspace settings.
- Whether the requested item exists.
- Whether an action requires approval.
Media generation
Image and video generation can take longer than text replies and usually uses more API usage budget. Results can vary by prompt clarity, source media, model support, plan, usage state, and safety checks. Review generated media before using it publicly.When to contact support
Contact support if:- A control that should be visible is missing after refreshing.
- Usage or billing still looks wrong after a short wait.
- You cannot remove data from available controls.
- A connector stays stuck after reconnecting.
- A feature repeatedly fails with the same customer-visible error.
