How to use Answer Assist

String smartChatAssistantId = "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX";
String messageToAssist = "What is Quickblox?";

List<QBAIAnswerAssistHistoryMessage> history = new ArrayList<>();

history.add(new QBAIAnswerAssistHistoryMessageImpl(Role.USER, "Hi"));
history.add(new QBAIAnswerAssistHistoryMessageImpl(Role.ASSISTANT, "Hello! How can I assist you today?"));

QB.ai.answerAssist(smartChatAssistantId, messageToAssist, history).performAsync(new QBEntityCallback<QBAIAnswerAssistResult>() {
    @Override
    public void onSuccess(QBAIAnswerAssistResult qbaiAnswerAssistResult, Bundle bundle) {
        String answer = qbaiAnswerAssistResult.getMessage();
        // handle answer
    }
  
    @Override
    public void onError(QBResponseException exception) {
        // handle error
    }
});

String smartChatAssistantId = "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX";
String messageToAssist = "What is Quickblox?";

List<QBAIAnswerAssistHistoryMessage> history = new ArrayList<>();

history.add(new QBAIAnswerAssistHistoryMessageImpl(Role.USER, "Hi"));
history.add(new QBAIAnswerAssistHistoryMessageImpl(Role.ASSISTANT, "Hello! How can I assist you today?"));

QB.ai.answerAssist(smartChatAssistantId, messageToAssist, history).performAsync(new QBEntityCallback<QBAIAnswerAssistResult>() {
    @Override
    public void onSuccess(QBAIAnswerAssistResult qbaiAnswerAssistResult, Bundle bundle) {
        String answer = qbaiAnswerAssistResult.getMessage();
        // handle answer
    }
  
    @Override
    public void onError(QBResponseException exception) {
        // handle error
    }
});

val smartChatAssistantId = "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
val messageToAssist = "What is Quickblox?"

val history: MutableList<QBAIAnswerAssistHistoryMessage> = ArrayList()
history.add(QBAIAnswerAssistHistoryMessageImpl(Role.USER, "Hi"))
history.add(QBAIAnswerAssistHistoryMessageImpl(Role.ASSISTANT, "Hello! How can I assist you today?"))

QB.ai.answerAssist(smartChatAssistantId, messageToAssist, history)
    .performAsync(object : QBEntityCallback<QBAIAnswerAssistResult?> {
        override fun onSuccess(qbaiAnswerAssistResult: QBAIAnswerAssistResult?, bundle: Bundle) {
            val answer = qbaiAnswerAssistResult?.message
            // handle answer
        }
