AI Assistant: Using Magic Text Import to Transform Existing Content

Turning content from a separate document into an interactive block used to require copying and pasting paragraph by paragraph. Now, with AI Assistant, you can simply copy and paste your content into the Magic Text Import dialog box. Your content is automatically arranged into a process block, accordion, or tabs interaction—while your original wording stays intact.

Available only in Rise 360, magic text import can be accessed from the AI Assistant menu in the upper right or from the AI Blocks menu within the block library. Please note that importing media such as images, audio, and video is currently unavailable as we continue to improve this AI Assistant feature.

While magic text import can save you a ton of time, you’ll get the best results if you follow some simple conventions when formatting your source document. Read on to see examples of some formatting Do’s and Don’ts.

Process Blocks

To get a process block complete with an intro, steps, and a summary, organize your source content by paragraphs with headings. The table below shows the formatting that gives the best results.

Do: Use Paragraphs with Heading Labels

Intro: Cake Baking Process
Baking a cake is a delightful and rewarding experience that combines creativity with culinary skills. Whether for a special occasion or just a treat for yourself, following the right steps ensures a delicious outcome.   

Step 1: Gather Ingredients
Start by gathering all necessary ingredients: flour, sugar, eggs, butter, baking powder, and vanilla extract. Make sure to measure them accurately for the best results.

Step 2: Mix the Batter
In a mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Gradually incorporate the flour and baking powder, followed by the vanilla extract, until the batter is smooth.

Step 3: Bake the Cake
Pour mixed batter into a greased pan and place into a preheated oven. The cake is done when a toothpick inserted in the cake comes out clean.

Summary: Enjoy Your Delicious Treat
In conclusion, baking a cake involves gathering ingredients, mixing them properly, and following a systematic approach. With practice, anyone can master the art of cake baking and enjoy the delicious results.

 

Some formatting conventions tend to produce unexpected or less satisfactory results and should be avoided. For example, skipping paragraph breaks—as shown in the table below—may result in a process block with empty steps or an incorrect summary.

Don’t: Skip Paragraph Breaks
Intro: Cake Baking Process - Baking a cake is a delightful and rewarding experience that combines creativity with culinary skills. Whether for a special occasion or just a treat for yourself, following the right steps ensures a delicious outcome.

 

Labeling paragraphs with markers like “description”—as the table below demonstrates—may result in repetition within your process block.

Don’t: Label Paragraphs
Intro: Cake Baking Process
Description: Baking a cake is a delightful and rewarding experience that combines creativity with culinary skills. Whether for a special occasion or just a treat for yourself, following the right steps ensures a delicious outcome.   

 

Finally, using list numbers or bullets in your process steps—as the below example shows—may cause AI Assistant to make every item a process step, with no introduction or summary.

Don’t: Use Bullets or Numbers
  1. Gather Ingredients:
  • Flour
  • Sugar
  • Eggs
  • Butter
  • Baking powder
  • Vanilla extract

Make sure to measure them accurately for the best results.

Accordion and Tabs Interactions

For accordion and tabs blocks, AI Assistant turns headings into titles and the corresponding paragraphs into related content. Organize your source content by paragraphs with headings for best results. If you don’t provide a heading, AI Assistant will generate titles based on the content. However, if you skip the headings and format the paragraphs as a bullet or numbered list, the content may not import correctly.

The below table offers a side-by-side comparison of formatting Do’s and Don’ts for the best results when using magic text import to create accordion and tabs interactions.

Do: Use Paragraphs Headings

 Don’t: Skip headings and format the paragraphs as a bullet or numbered list
