# Feedback |
Feedback lets you capture user ratings and comments tied to a trace. VoltAgent can create signed feedback tokens for each trace and attach them to assistant message metadata so you can submit feedback later from the UI. |

## How it works |
- Feedback is always linked to a trace_id. |
- When feedback is enabled, VoltAgent requests a short-lived token from the VoltOps API and returns metadata. |
- The metadata is added to the last assistant message so you can show a UI control and submit later. |
Feedback metadata shape: |
```json |
{ |
"traceId": "...", |
"key": "satisfaction", |
"url": "https://api.voltagent.dev/api/public/feedback/ingest/...", |
"tokenId": "...", |
"expiresAt": "2026-01-06T18:25:26.005Z", |
"provided": true, |
"providedAt": "2026-01-06T18:30:00.000Z", |
"feedbackId": "feedback-id", |
"feedbackConfig": { |
"type": "categorical", |
"categories": [ |
{ "value": 1, "label": "Satisfied" }, |
{ "value": 0, "label": "Unsatisfied" } |
] |
} |
} |
``` |
## Best-practice state model |
For production apps, use a hybrid approach: |
- Keep feedback records in VoltOps as the source of truth. |
- Use message metadata (`provided`, `providedAt`, `feedbackId`) as fast UI state for hiding feedback controls. |
- After a successful feedback submit, persist the metadata state on the stored assistant message with `agent.markFeedbackProvided(...)`. |
This keeps UX responsive and prevents feedback controls from reappearing after conversation reloads. |
## Feedback keys (registry) |
Feedback keys let you register a reusable schema for a signal (numeric, boolean, or categorical). The system stores keys per project and uses them to resolve `feedbackConfig` when you only pass `key`. |
- If a key exists with `feedback_config`, it is reused when `feedbackConfig` is omitted. |
- If a key does not exist and you pass `feedbackConfig`, the key is created automatically. |
- If a key exists, the stored config wins. Update the key if you need to change the schema. |
Manage feedback keys in the Console UI under Settings. |
## Enable feedback in the SDK |
You can enable feedback at the agent level or per request. A VoltOps client must be configured (environment or explicit) so tokens can be created. |
### Agent-level default |
```ts |
import { Agent } from "@voltagent/core"; |
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai"; |
const agent = new Agent({ |
name: "support-agent", |
instructions: "Help users solve issues", |
model: openai("gpt-4o-mini"), |
feedback: true, |
}); |
``` |
### Per-call feedback options |
```ts |
const result = await agent.generateText("Help me reset my password", { |
feedback: { |
key: "satisfaction", |
feedbackConfig: { |
type: "categorical", |
categories: [ |
{ value: 1, label: "Satisfied" }, |
{ value: 0, label: "Unsatisfied" }, |
], |
}, |
expiresIn: { hours: 6 }, |
}, |
}); |
const feedback = result.feedback; |
