The [**Mem0 Memory**](https://github.com/mem0ai/mem0) integration with [Flowise](https://github.com/FlowiseAI/Flowise) enables persistent memory capabilities for your AI chatflows. [Flowise](https://flowiseai.com/) is an open-source low-code tool for developers to build customized LLM orchestration flows & AI agents using a drag & drop interface.

## Overview

1. 🧠 Provides persistent memory storage for Flowise chatflows
2. 🔄 Seamless integration with existing Flowise templates
3. 🚀 Compatible with various LLM nodes in Flowise
4. 📝 Supports custom memory configurations
5. ⚡ Easy to set up and manage

## Prerequisites

Before setting up Mem0 with Flowise, ensure you have:

1. [Flowise installed](https://github.com/FlowiseAI/Flowise#⚡quick-start) (NodeJS >= 18.15.0 required):
```bash
npm install -g flowise
npx flowise start
```

2. Access to the Flowise UI at http://localhost:3000
3. Basic familiarity with [Flowise's LLM orchestration](https://flowiseai.com/#features) concepts

## Setup and Configuration

### 1. Set Up Flowise

1. Open the Flowise application and create a new canvas, or select a template from the Flowise marketplace.
2. In this example, we use the **Conversation Chain** template.
3. Replace the default **Buffer Memory** with **Mem0 Memory**.

## Memory Features

### 1. Basic Memory Storage

Test your memory configuration:

1. Save your Flowise configuration
2. Run a test chat and store some information
3. Verify the stored memories in the [Mem0 Dashboard](https://app.mem0.ai/dashboard/requests)

### 2. Memory Retention

Validate memory persistence:

1. Clear the chat history in Flowise
2. Ask a question about previously stored information
3. Confirm that the AI remembers the context

## Advanced Configuration

### Memory Settings

![Mem0 Settings](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FlowiseAI/FlowiseDocs/main/en/.gitbook/assets/mem0/settings.png)

Available settings include:

1. **Search Only Mode**: Enable memory retrieval without creating new memories
2. **Mem0 Entities**: Configure identifiers:
   - `user_id`: Unique identifier for each user
   - `run_id`: Specific conversation session ID
   - `app_id`: Application identifier
   - `agent_id`: AI agent identifier
3. **Project ID**: Assign memories to specific projects
4. **Organization ID**: Organize memories by organization

### Platform Configuration

Additional settings available in [Mem0 Project Settings](https://app.mem0.ai/dashboard/project-settings):

1. **Custom Instructions**: Define memory extraction rules
2. **Expiration Date**: Set automatic memory cleanup periods

## Best Practices

1. **User Identification**: Use consistent `user_id` values for reliable memory retrieval
2. **Memory Organization**: Utilize projects and organizations for better memory management
3. **Regular Maintenance**: Monitor and clean up unused memories periodically
