Recommended actions

Action types
| Action type | Description |
|---|---|
| Guidance |
An action that an agent can take or information that they can share. For example, a guidance can recommend that an agent can view and attach a knowledge article to a case or create a work order. |
| Guided decision tree | A guided flow to follow. A decision tree is a multi-step process that includes a series of questions and answers and results in guidance. |
| Field recommendation | A recommended value to use for a field. For example, this type of action can recommend the assignment group based on the text in the case short description. |
Resource generators
Configure resource generators to provide information that you can use as inputs to actions such as guidances and field recommendations. Configuration of decision trees do not require resource generators. For more information, see Create a resource generator in Recommended Actions.
Arbitration parameters
Configure arbitration parameters to determine the frequency of issues or the priority order of the recommended actions so that agents get the guidance that they need to help resolve customer issues. For more information, see Configure the arbitration parameters in Recommended Actions.
