In this example, the agent must first understand the database schema, retrieve lists of values before generating it's own query to search over the database.\n\n**Checkout the example database here - https://airtable.com/appO5xvP1aUBYKyJ7/shr8jSFDaghubDOrw**\n\n### How it works\n* A Twilio trigger gives us the ability to receive SMS input into our workflow via webhook.\n* The message is then directed to our AI agent who is instructed to assist the user and use the course database as reference. The database is an Airtable base.\n* The agent autonomously figures out which tool it needs to use and generates it's own \"filter_by_formula\" query to search over the available courses.\n* On successful search results, the Agent can then use this information to answer the user's query.\n* The Agent's output is logged in a second sheet of the Airtable base. We can use this later for analysis and lead gen.\n* Finally, the response is sent back to the user through SMS using Twilio.\n\n### How to use\n* Ensure your Twilio number is set to forward messages to this workflow's webhook URL.\n* Configure and update the course database as required. If you're not interested in courses, you can swap this out for inventory, deliveries or any other data relevant to your business.\n* Ask questions like:\n  * \"Can you help me find suitable courses to fill my Wednesday mornings?\"\n  * \"Which courses are being instructed by profession Lee?\"\n  * \"I'm interested in creative arts. What courses are available which could be relevant to me?\"\n\n### Requirements\n* Twilio for SMS receiving and sending\n* OpenAI for LLM and Agent\n* Airtable for Course Database\n\n### Customising this workflow\n* Add additional tools and expand the range of queries the agent is able to answer or assist with.\n* Not using Airtable? This technique also works with SQL databases like PostgreSQL.\n\n### Need Help?\nJoin the [Discord](https://discord.com/invite/XPKeKXeB7d) or ask in the [Forum](https://community.n8n.io/)!\n\nHappy Hacking!"
