Using Magic Text Import in Rise

“

- [Instructor] Okay, in this movie, I want to show you how the magic text import feature works in AI Assistant. Now, one thing that's really nice about this that's different than some of the other AI system block generation is that it's going to take the content you give it and rapidly import it and transform it into another block. It's not going to revise your content, it's not going to touch your content, but it's a super fast way to take a page full of text and generate a block. So here's what we have. I've got my Making the Transition from Peer to Boss. I've got a heading and an intro paragraph, and then I have seven different strategies for making that transition. Now, before I copy and paste this, I just want to call out something real quick. Block library and AI blocks. So down here at the very bottom we have the magic text import. Now you can see the different block types we have right here. We have a process block, and then accordion and tabs. So accordion and tabs are essentially the same, right? Because you can use the block selector tool and convert these already. But process in accordion or process in tabs a little bit different because a process block has an intro slide or an intro paragraph, and then it goes into the steps. Whereas the accordions, they only have the items. So if I look at my content here, if I wanted to make this an accordion, I would only select all of the steps, right? I'd include each of the headings and the paragraphs, but not this intro, right? I wouldn't want to put the intro paragraph or the heading into one of the panels. If I were making a process interaction, this would make more sense. So you can see right here that I already have the paragraph and heading set up. So I'm going to copy everything right here, all the way down. I'm copying everything except for my intro paragraph, 'cause this is the text I want to rapidly create a block from. So control C, again, just to make sure I have it. My block library, AI blocks, and then all the way down again at the bottom, we'll select accordion. And this is the format you want to maintain. So you can see right here we have the title, which is the accordion panel title, and then the description. As long as those are on separate lines, there's a page break between them. Everything's going to be just fine. So there it is. Now if you look at it, I do have title and then description, and then I have another title. So I don't need to add that extra paragraph break right here. I don't have to do that. If I wanted to do it, I could, but it's essentially going to copy that and it's going to recognize the heading right there as the title. Watch this, generate block. This only takes a moment to do this. And there we go. Expand the panel and look at that. Recognized my bullet points. Recognized the bold and italic formatting. The italic formatting. Whoops, didn't mean to go in there, but I have my interaction already created. So again, it's not going to touch the content, it's not going to revise the content at all. It's going to take it exactly as it is and then drop it into the interaction. Now, when I mentioned earlier that the tabs and accordions already were interchangeable, you can use the block selector. So that's already a default in Rise. But taking that text from that document and then rapidly converting that to an interaction is a huge, huge time saver. But that's how Magic Text Import works.
