## Summary of Opportunity AI agent

The Opportunity AI agent in ServiceNow streamlines the management of sales opportunities and their related records, including accounts, contacts, touchpoints, tasks, line items, competitors, and meetings.
It leverages natural language processing to help users read, create, update, and summarize opportunities efficiently within the platform.
Before applying any changes to key records like opportunities, accounts, contacts, or line items, the agent previews modifications and requires user approval, ensuring accuracy and control.

## Key Features

* **Natural Language Interaction:** Users can manage opportunity-related records through intuitive, conversational requests, with the agent identifying the intended actions and related records automatically.
* **Clarification and Precision:** If a request is ambiguous or unsupported, the agent asks clarifying questions to ensure correct execution.
* **Record Handling:** The agent uses the record named by the user or the one currently open in the workspace to provide relevant information or updates.
* **Search and Summarization:** Retrieves and displays matching records or opportunity summaries, showing up to the first 10 results to maintain clarity.
* **Guided Creation:** When creating new opportunities, the agent assists in selecting appropriate sales cycle types and stages to align with the sales process.
* **Change Preview and Approval:** Changes to opportunities, accounts, contacts, and line items are previewed before application; other related records are updated directly.
* **Outcome Reporting:** After actions, the agent reports results, explains any failures, and suggests up to three next steps to guide the user.
* **Configurable Access and Memory:** Administrators can control third-party and AI specialist access, manage long-term memory for contextual interactions, and define user roles for secure and customized use.
* **Integration and Extensibility:** The agent supports configuration of triggers and is enabled for the ServiceNow Otto AI panel, fitting into agentic workflows.

## Practical Benefits for ServiceNow Customers

* **Efficiency:** Automates and simplifies sales opportunity management by reducing manual data entry and navigation.
* **Accuracy and Control:** Provides previews and requires approval before critical changes, minimizing errors.
* **Contextual Assistance:** Uses previous interactions (if enabled) to maintain context, improving responsiveness and relevance.
* **Customizable Security:** Ensures only authorized roles can access or modify opportunity data, aligning with organizational policies.
* **Guided Sales Processes:** Helps maintain consistency in sales cycles and stages, supporting best practices.

## Configuration Highlights

Key configuration settings include enabling third-party and specialist access to the AI agent, managing long-term memory for enhanced context, and specifying user roles for access and data permissions. These settings are managed through system properties and the AI Agent configs table, allowing administrators to tailor the agent's capabilities and security to their organizational needs.  
This AI agent helps the user read, create, update, and summarize opportunities and their related records, such as accounts, contacts, touchpoints, opportunity tasks, line items, and meetings. It previews changes to
opportunities, accounts, contacts, and line items and makes them only after the user approves.

## Workflow {#sfa-opportunity-ai-agent__zsmdlwierhjt}

The agent helps users manage opportunities and their related records through natural-language requests.

1. Identify the action the user wants to take and the record it applies to, and ask a clarifying question if the request is unclear or not supported.
2. Use the record the user names, or the record open in the workspace if the user doesn't name one.
3. Retrieve and present the matching records or an opportunity summary, showing the first 10 results when more exist.
4. When creating an opportunity, help the user choose a sales cycle type and a stage that belongs to it.
5. Preview changes to opportunities, accounts, contacts, and line items, and apply them only after the user approves.
6. Apply changes to touchpoints, opportunity tasks, competitors, associated contacts, and meetings directly.
7. Report the result, including the reason for any failure, and provide up to three next steps the user can take.
