Playground

Interact freely with any endpoint — send messages, attach files, view traces, and capture test cases — all without writing a line of code.

Playground

Getting Started

Open the Playground from any endpoint page. Select the endpoint you want to test, then start typing in the message box. There’s no setup required — just choose an endpoint and start a conversation.

For endpoints that support file inputs, you can attach images, PDFs, or audio files directly in the message composer. See Multi-modal Testing for supported formats and limits.

Side-by-Side Comparison

The Playground supports a split-screen mode where you can run two conversations in parallel against the same or different endpoints. This is useful for:

  • Comparing responses from different model configurations
  • Evaluating prompt changes before committing them
  • Checking how two endpoints handle the same inputs

Each side operates independently — you can send different messages or share the same input to see how responses diverge.

Viewing Traces

After each response, click on the agent’s reply to open the associated trace. The trace shows the full span tree for that turn — including any tool calls, retrieval steps, or agent handoffs triggered by your message.

This gives you immediate feedback on what happened inside your endpoint without leaving the Playground. See Tracing for more on how traces are structured.

Creating Tests

Any conversation can be saved as a test directly from the Playground:

  • Click the lab icon on the conversation window to create a test from the current conversation.
  • Click the plus icon to open a new chat window and start a fresh conversation.

You’ll be prompted to assign a category, topic, behavior, and optional expected output before saving. Tests capture the full message context, including any attached files, so they can be replayed exactly during test execution.
