Was following Voice AI quickstart | LiveKit Documentation in the Connect to playground section .. I opened up Playground, and select my project, but no Agent shows up. I also tried with a local server, and in the manual input fields, I dropped in the localhost URL and a token a created for myself ... I was able to connect but agent didn't showed up again. Why ? What am I missing? Do I need to ask the agent to join the playground? And if yes how and why it isn't mentioned on the page I am following?
s
If the agent has
agent_name
defined, it is dispatched only to rooms that request it by name. In the Playground, you'll need to set agent name in order for it to join (by default this is
"my-agent")
m
And how do set the agent name? (Using hosted playground)
Yes my agent is names
my-agent"
