Important: Lux is the new user experience for AI Admin Center. For more information on the Lux experience, see [AI Admin Center user experience (Lux UI)](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/lHQ~QQAqCp2om57kHgokVA#ai-admin-center-lux-user-experience "Use the AI Admin Center experience to set up, monitor, and manage your AI solutions."). The Next Experience AI Admin Center workspace is being prepared for future deprecation and will no longer be supported. For more information on the Next Experience UI, see [AI Admin Center workspace (Next Experience UI)](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/d7aSXEU_I2o5wKQYcOqhqA#now-assist-center-workspace "Use the AI Admin Center workspace to set up, monitor, and manage your AI solutions."). In AI Admin Center version 6.1, the Next Experience and Lux user interfaces are both available. ## Before you begin You must have access to an ACL-protected table to configure the analysis for it. For AI Agent Advisor to run a successful analysis, the data source must contain a minimum of 500 records. Role required: sn_na_center.nac_admin ## About this task Follow these steps to configure the data source, filters, schedule, and cost profile that AI Agent Advisor uses to identify the automation opportunities and provide savings estimates for them. In the event an error occurs when performing these steps, see the troubleshooting steps described in KB article [KB2931703](https://support.servicenow.com/kb?id=kb_article_view&sysparm_article=KB2931703) on Now Support. Note: This topic describes the AI Admin Center feature based on the Lux user interface (UI). If you're using the Next Experience UI for AI Admin Center, see the Next Experience UI version of this topic. ## Procedure 1. Navigate to AllAI Admin CenterHome or AdminAI Admin Center. The home page opens. The Automation opportunities section displays only a Review configurations button if no opportunities are identified or if opportunity discovery isn't yet set up. Figure 1. Empty automation opportunities section The Automation opportunities section displays the top automation opportunities in separate cards if discovery is set up and opportunities are identified. The section also displays an Edit advisor settings link to edit the discovery data sources. Figure 2. Automation opportunities section {#ai-admin-center-lux-set-up-data-source__ai-admin-center-reuse-ph-app-task-navigation-lux} 2. Select Review configurations or Edit advisor settings to open the Automation opportunities settings page. You can also select Settings (![Settings icon.]()) in the side navigation panel and select Automation opportunities under General on the Settings page. The Automation opportunities settings page opens. If there are any data sources set up, a separate card displays for each data source. Figure 3. Automation opportunities settings page 3. Select Create new. The AI Agent Advisor setup page opens. Figure 4. AI Agent Advisor setup page 4. Complete the General information section. 1. Enter a name for the analysis configuration in the Add name field. 2. Enter a description in the Short description field. 5. Choose the data source in the Select table section. 1. If permission is required for AI Agent Advisor to access the table, select Add role. Then add the required role to the sn_agent_miner.app_admin role and return to the Add new data set page. For more information, see [Add a role to an existing role](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=t_AddARoleToAnExistingRole&version=australia&pubname=australia-platform-administration&ft:locale=en-US). 2. Select a table from the Table name menu. 3. Select one or more fields from the Fields menu. 6. Select the frequency of the analysis schedule in the Scheduled to run section. * Select the 30, 60, or 90 day option. * Toggle the On-Off option to Off to stop AI Agent Advisor from running the recurring analysis and identifying opportunities. If the scheduled run is turned off, new opportunities for the data source won't appear until a new run is scheduled or triggered manually. {#ai-admin-center-lux-set-up-data-source__choices_lux_ds_sched} 7. Apply filters to refine the scope of the analysis. 1. Use conditions to select certain properties as a filter. For more information on how conditions work, see [OR conditions](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=c_UsingORConditions&version=australia&pubname=australia-platform-user-interface&ft:locale=en-US). Note: A filter for the Created field is required. 2. Select Add group to add more conditions. 8. Create a cost profile to calculate the estimated time and cost savings from using the automation. 1. Enter the hourly labor cost. 2. Enter the active handling time rate. The percentage of a record's total open time that represents actual hands-on effort by a human agent. 9. Select Save and activate. ## Result AI Agent Advisor runs the analysis according to the configured filters and schedule. After the analysis completes, automation opportunities appear on the AI Admin Center home page and on the Automation opportunities page. ## What to do next View your automation opportunities.
