    • Share the response with teammates (optional)

    • Use the response for AI training (optional)

  4. Click Save Changes.


Editing a canned response

To edit the text or settings of a canned response:

  1. From the list, either:

    • Click ⋯ → Edit.

You can edit:

  • Your own canned responses (private or shared)

  • Shared canned responses created by others

You cannot edit private canned responses created by someone else.


Audience and Aura training

Each canned response has:

  • Audience – choose which people it applies to (e.g. Everyone, Pro Max Plans, Italy, Basic Plan, etc.).

  • Use the response for AI training – when enabled, Aura will use this canned response as a resource to answer questions for that audience only.

This lets you keep some replies (and their AI training) specific to certain plans, regions or segments.


Sharing & permissions

  • Share the response with teammates

    • When enabled, the canned response becomes shared and visible to your teammates.

    • When disabled, it’s private to the creator.

Permission rules:

  • You can toggle Share on your own canned responses.

  • You cannot change the share setting for canned responses created by someone else.
    If you try to change it, you’ll see an error message.

  • Even if you didn’t create it, you can still:

    • Edit the content of a shared canned response

    • Change its audience

    • Enable/disable AI training


Deleting a canned response

You can delete a canned response in two ways:

  1. From the list:

    • Click ⋯ → Delete Response next to the canned response.

  2. From the editor:

    • Click Remove at the top.

Deleting a canned response removes it from the Help Center and stops Aura from using it for training.
