# Agent Settings: Discovery

![Settings panel on the Discovery sub-tab with Who Can View and Who Can Chat dropdowns, a Highlight in featured listings toggle, and Save, Copy, and Delete buttons](/images/docs/os/agent-settings/agent_settings_discovery.webp)

## Overview

The Discovery sub-tab of the Settings panel controls who can find and use an agent, and whether it gets promoted in listings. The panel header reads: "Configure your agent's basic settings and preferences," and Discovery sits between the **Basic** and **Capabilities** sub-tabs at the top of the panel.

Its two required dropdowns separate visibility from usage: **Who Can View?** decides who sees the agent, while **Who Can Chat?** decides whether unauthenticated visitors may start conversations. A **Highlight in featured listings** toggle additionally promotes the agent in featured placements.

To reach this screen, open the **Edit Agent** modal, stay on the **Configurations** tab group, select **Settings** in the left sidebar, then click the **Discovery** sub-tab.

## Target Audience

**Administrator** | **Agent Builder**

## Settings Reference

#### Who Can View? (required)
A dropdown controlling who can see this agent; its tooltip reads "Control who can view this agent." The visibility levels defined for agents are administrator-only, platform users/students, and anyone — i.e. you can restrict the agent to organization administrators, open it to the organization's authenticated users (the "Users" value shown selected in the screenshot), or make it viewable by anyone.

#### Who Can Chat? (required)
A dropdown controlling who can start conversations with the agent; its tooltip reads "Control who can chat with this agent." The two options are **Anyone** (anonymous chat allowed) and **Authenticated Users** (shown selected — visitors must be signed in to chat).

#### Highlight in featured listings
A toggle whose tooltip reads: "Feature this agent to highlight it in listings." When on, the agent is marked as featured so it is surfaced prominently in agent listings. It is off in the screenshot.

#### Allow LTI launches
The Discovery sub-tab also defines an **Allow LTI launches** toggle (permission-gated, so it does not appear for every user). Its tooltip warns: "Allows this agent to be accessible via LTI launches. Unselecting this will immediately remove access for any users that have launched this via LTI."

#### Save, Copy, Delete
**Save** persists the Discovery form changes to the agent. **Copy** opens a dialog to duplicate the agent. **Delete** opens a confirmation dialog to delete the agent; it appears only for users with delete permission.

## How to Use

#### Step 1: Open the Discovery sub-tab
Open the **Edit Agent** modal, keep **Configurations** selected, click **Settings** in the sidebar, then choose the **Discovery** sub-tab (between Basic and Capabilities).

#### Step 2: Set who can view
Pick a value in **Who Can View?** — restrict the agent to administrators while it is being built, open it to your organization's users, or make it visible to anyone when it is ready for broad discovery.

#### Step 3: Set who can chat
Pick **Authenticated Users** to require sign-in before chatting, or **Anyone** to allow anonymous conversations (for example, on a public-facing help agent).

#### Step 4: Optionally feature the agent
Turn on **Highlight in featured listings** if the agent should be promoted in featured placements.

#### Step 5: Save
Click **Save** to apply the changes. Use **Copy** if you want a duplicate of the agent to experiment with, or **Delete** to remove the agent entirely.
