How to Set Up Spark Reminder Footnote Messages in Spark AI

Spark Reminder is a simple way to attach a consistent disclaimer-style footnote to every message your Spark AI sends. Instead of repeating the same warning in each conversation, you set it once—then verify it automatically appears in the footnote area.

This is especially useful when you need to set expectations in sensitive or high-stakes contexts, such as financial guidance or mental health/medical boundaries, but it can also work for creator-style reminders.

What Spark Reminder footnote messages are

Spark Reminder is a feature that adds a disclaimer-style message to the footnote of every Spark message. After you configure the reminder text, Spark includes it alongside its responses.

In the video, the Spark Reminder is described as a reusable way to communicate expectations without manual repetition. The transcript highlights it as applicable to:
- Financial contexts (for example, a “not financial advice” boundary)
- Mental health or medical contexts (for example, a “not medical advice” boundary)
- Creator reminders (for example, encouraging viewers to subscribe)

Common use cases: disclaimers and creator reminders

Below are the use cases emphasized in the transcript summary.

Financial and medical/mental health boundaries

Spark Reminder can function as a consistent disclaimer footnote in discussions where users might interpret responses as professional advice. The summary explicitly calls out boundaries like:
- “not financial advice”
- “not medical advice”

Reminders for creators and community

The reminder can also be used for non-disclaimer purposes, such as creator-style prompts. For example, the summary notes that you can use Spark Reminder to encourage users toward a channel action (like subscribing).

Quality and expectation setting (including hallucinations)

The video also frames Spark Reminder as a place to set output expectations. The summary specifically mentions adding a reminder that the bot may hallucinate, using a gentle “take it with a grain of salt” message.

How to set up Spark Reminder in the dashboard

You configure Spark Reminder through the one.i dashboard.

Follow this setup path (as described in the transcript summary):
1. Go to the community one.i dashboard.
2. Navigate to Spark AI chat.
3. Select Spark reminder.
4. Enter your reminder message.
5. Click Save.

The goal is to enter the exact footnote text you want Spark to include on every Spark message.

Example reminder: hallucinations and “grain of salt”

The creator example in the summary focuses on transparency about AI outputs. It includes a reminder that Spark can hallucinate and encourages users to treat the information cautiously.

The summary describes the message in the spirit of:
- A note that it is a bot and may hallucinate
- A gentle instruction to take the information “with a grain of salt”

When you’re selecting your own reminder text, keep it consistent with your intended purpose—whether that’s clarifying “not financial advice,” “not medical advice,” or setting a general expectation about AI limitations.

How to test the reminder in your server/channel

After saving your Spark Reminder text, you should verify it works in the environment where Spark is active.

The transcript summary recommends a direct test:
1. Send a message in the same server/channel where Spark is active.
2. Check that Spark’s response includes the reminder footnote.

This testing step matters because it confirms the reminder displays correctly in the actual place users will see it.

Troubleshooting checklist (based on the testing approach)

If you don’t see the footnote reminder, use the same testing logic to narrow down the issue:
- Confirm you saved the reminder in the one.i dashboard (Spark AI chat → Spark reminder → Save).
- Re-send a message in the server/channel where Spark is active.
- Verify you are checking the footnote area of Spark’s message (since Spark Reminder is described as a footnote-style disclaimer).

Conclusion

Spark Reminder provides a straightforward way to add a consistent disclaimer-style footnote to every Spark AI message. Set your reminder once in the one.i dashboard (Spark AI chat → Spark reminder), then test it by sending a message in the server/channel where Spark is active to confirm the footnote displays as expected.

By using Spark Reminder for boundaries like “not financial advice” or “not medical advice,” or for expectation setting like hallucination warnings, you can communicate clearly without repeating the same disclaimer in every chat.
