What needs to be in place before your team starts using the AI Gateway.
iVendNext is delivered as a fully managed service, so there is nothing to install or maintain. The AI Gateway is part of your iVendNext environment. Before your team begins, confirm the following:
| Prerequisite | Detail |
|---|---|
| An active iVendNext site | Your live iVendNext environment, reachable at your usual web address. |
| The AI Gateway enabled | An administrator confirms the gateway is switched on in Settings (see section 8). |
| A user account with access | Each person who uses the assistant needs an iVendNext user account, the right role, and the Assistant Access flag enabled (see section 6). |
| A supported AI assistant | A conversational AI application that can connect to a custom data source. A desktop AI client, a web-based assistant, or an internal connector tool all work. |
| Network access | The AI assistant must be able to reach your iVendNext web address. |
No technical setup on your side. You do not need to manage servers, run commands, or deploy anything. Everything described in this guide is configured from within iVendNext using its standard screens.
