Develop Search and Agents with AI Applications
Course 1483
1 DAY COURSE

In this course, you learn how to use Vertex AI Search and Conversational Agents to create search engines and chat applications. You will learn how to leverage Vertex AI Search for grounding your gen AI-powered applications. You will then explore how to integrate these search engines and chat applications into your own applications. Finally, you learn how to use the agents built in AI Applications in multi agent workflows.
