🧠 Vtiger CRM – Auto-Answer FAQs with DeepSeek AI

Description:

This workflow automates the process of answering FAQ drafts in Vtiger CRM using DeepSeek LLM via LangChain. It's perfect for teams who want to accelerate knowledge base creation, improve support response consistency, or reduce the manual effort of writing FAQ content.

Every 1 minute, this workflow:

• 📥 Retrieves the most recent FAQ record marked as Draft in Vtiger CRM
• 🧠 Sends the question to a LangChain agent powered by DeepSeek AI
• 📝 Receives a plain-text answer
• 📤 Updates the original FAQ with the generated answer and changes its status to Published

⚙️ How It Works

• Trigger: Scheduled to run every 1 minute
• Query: Pulls the latest FAQ from Vtiger where faqstatus = 'Draft'
• AI Agent: Uses LangChain + DeepSeek to generate a natural-language answer
• Memory Buffer: Keeps context using LangChain memory
• Update: Pushes the answer back to Vtiger and marks it as Published
