You can incorporate intelligent triage information into your standalone skills-based routing setup.
Intelligent triage automatically determines a ticket's intent, the language it's written in, and the customer sentiment (positive or negative). Standalone skills-based routing allows you to route tickets to the agents who have the right expertise to handle them.
Pairing these two features lets you automatically route tickets to the agents who have the right knowledge to resolve a specific issue, such as speaking the same language as the requester.
This article gives you examples of skill routing rules you can create based on intelligent triage information. Because these examples are starting points, customize the details however makes sense for your business.
