The chat interface is the primary way to create process maps in BA Copilot. It works like a conversation: you describe what you need, and the AI generates a BPMN diagram.

How it works:

  1. Open an existing chat or create a new one within a space.
  2. Type your process description in the message input at the bottom.
  3. Press Send or hit Enter.
  4. The AI generates a BPMN process map, displayed in the diagram area on the right.
  5. Continue the conversation to refine, expand, or adjust the process map.

Things you can ask the AI to do:

  • Generate a new process map from a description
  • Add swimlanes for additional departments or roles
  • Modify specific steps or decision points
  • Check compliance with standards (e.g. GDPR, ISO)
  • Add exception handling or error paths
  • Simplify or restructure a complex process

Stop a response or generation

Do not press F5 or refresh the page to stop AI work.

  • BA Copilot Agent: while the response is running, select the square Stop button at the bottom-right of the message composer. Its accessible label is Stop response.
  • Local Edition process-map chat: after the first option is ready while later options are still generating, the send control at the right edge of the chat composer changes to the square Stop generating button.

If no Stop button is visible on the current screen, that screen does not expose a cancellation control at that point. Do not invent a keyboard shortcut; contact support@ba-copilot.com if the generation appears stuck.
