It issued the Declaration of the Rights of Man.
The formation of the National Assembly in 1789 was a direct response to the perceived tyranny of the French monarchy, particularly King Louis XVI's disregard for the needs and rights of the Third Estate, which represented the common people. Frustrated by their lack of representation and the king's refusal to address their grievances, members of the Third Estate declared themselves the National Assembly, asserting their authority to represent the nation. This act signified a rejection of absolute monarchy and the feudal system, marking a pivotal moment in the fight for democracy and equality in France. The National Assembly aimed to establish a constitutional government that would reflect the will of the people rather than the whims of the monarchy.

how did the constitution and the Bill of Rights reflects enlightenment ideas
The idea that the state should not impose religious doctrine on their people (ie, secularism) which is covered by the bill of rights was a focus of the enlightenment. Note that this does not prohibit religious belief or expression, just the state sanctioned stuff. Another is freedom of speech, which was popularized in the enlightenment by Voltaire. The right to assembly, again a focus because of the enlightenment (and french revolution) And that's just the first amendment :)
The Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution are two important documents that reflect the influence of Enlightenment ideas. They emphasize principles such as individual liberty, natural rights, and government by consent of the governed, all central tenets of Enlightenment philosophy.
