<h3>External Services</h3>
<p>This plugin connects to an API provided by Cohere (https://cohere.com) to perform AI-powered filtering of WordPress posts and custom post types. It sends the prompt entered by the admin to Cohere’s <code>/v2/chat</code> endpoint. The API responds with a set of WP_Query arguments based on understanding of the prompt.</p>
<h3>Details of the API integration</h3>
<ul>
<li>
<p><strong>What the service is</strong>:<br />
The plugin integrates with the Cohere Chat API (https://cohere.com), a third-party AI service that specializes in natural language understanding and generation.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>What it is used for</strong>:<br />
The API is used to analyze admin-entered prompts and return relevant WP_Query arguments. These are used by the plugin to filter posts or custom post types intelligently, enabling semantic searching in the WordPress admin area.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>What Data is Sent</strong>:</p>
<ul>
<li>The prompt entered by the WordPress admin is sent to the Cohere API. No personal user or customer data is collected or transmitted.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Why the data is sent</strong>:<br />
The data is sent so that the Cohere API can understand the context of the content and the user’s intent behind the prompt. This allows it to return accurate WP_Query arguments to filter posts, instead of relying on simple keyword-based filters.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>When Data is Sent</strong>:<br />
Only when the admin enters a prompt in the plugin interface and initiates the filter action</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>How Data is Sent</strong>:<br />
Data is sent via a secure <code>wp_remote_post()</code> request to <code>https://api.cohere.com/v2/chat</code></p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Terms and Privacy</strong>:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://cohere.com/terms-of-use" rel="nofollow ugc">Cohere Terms of Use</a></li>
<li><a href="https://cohere.com/privacy" rel="nofollow ugc">Cohere Privacy Policy</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p>This API connection is essential for the plugin’s AI features to function. If you choose not to use the AI filtering functionality, the rest of the plugin remains functional.</p>
