We’re excited to announce that auto assist can now provide direct instructions for agents in the knowledge section in the context panel.
This allows admins to define auto assist procedures with direct instructions for agents. The instructions you define will be presented to agents at a specific point of the ticket lifecycle.
You can use these instructions to ask agents to do a specific task. For example, making an update in an internal company system or performing a task that auto assist can’t do.
This announcement includes the following topics:
What is changing?
Auto assist provides suggestions for replies and actions to agents. We're now adding a third type of suggestion, instructions for agents.
What do I need to do?
To start providing your agents with instructions, create or edit an auto assist procedure and add instructions by with the Insert instruction for agents button. To learn more, see Creating instructions for agents in auto assist procedures.
