Persona

Assign a Persona to this profile. The Persona determines the virtual being's name, avatar, and voice for this deployment.

The Persona tab assigns an identity to this profile. The selected Persona determines what the virtual being looks and sounds like in this specific deployment – its name, avatar, and voice configuration.


Selecting a Persona

The Persona tab displays all Personas created in this Dashboard as selectable cards. Each card shows the Persona's name and avatar thumbnail.

To assign a Persona:

  1. Click the card for the Persona you want to use for this profile
  2. The card's radio box is checked to show it is selected
  3. The Persona is now active for this deployment

If no Personas have been created yet, go to Personas to create one first.


Avatar compatibility

Not all Persona avatars are compatible with all profile types. The avatar type must match the touchpoint:

Avatar typeCompatible touchpoint
MetaHumanMetaHuman Kiosk profiles only
Custom WebWeb Widget profiles only
Ready Player Me (deprecated)Web Widget profiles only

The Personas whose avatar type is incompatible with this profile's touchpoint will display a warning: "This persona is not selectable for this profile." The card becomes visually dimmed and cannot be selected.

If you assign a compatible Persona and later change its avatar type to an incompatible one, it will result in errors with rendering the avatar in the touchpoint. Always verify avatar compatibility when editing an existing Persona that is assigned to multiple profiles.


Multiple profiles, one Persona

The same Persona can be assigned to multiple profiles simultaneously. This is useful when deploying the same virtual being identity across different touchpoints or environments.

Changes to the Persona (name, bio, voice settings) apply to all profiles using that Persona immediately.


Changing the Persona

To switch to a different Persona, simply select a different card on the Persona tab and save. The change takes effect immediately – no re-publishing of the Pipeline is required.
