    The Conversational Interfaces Diagnostic Tool lets admins search for, identify, and resolve issues with conversational interfaces.

    Technical support engineers set up the Conversational Interfaces Diagnostic Tool on the server. Technical support engineers create and manage the Conversational Interfaces diagnostic category records and content that the Conversational Interfaces Diagnostic Tool uses.

    After the technical support engineers create the diagnostic categories and content, admins can start using the Conversational Interfaces Diagnostic Tool on the chat widget. Admins must have the admin or virtual_agent_admin role.

    The Conversational Interfaces Diagnostic Tool is available for both Virtual Agent and Virtual Agent Lite.
    Remarque :
    Before using the Conversational Interfaces Diagnostic Tool, admins must activate the Conversational Interfaces - Diagnostics plugin (sn_ci_diagnostics) available on the ServiceNow® Store store.

    Conversational Interfaces Diagnostic Tool workflow

    After you've described the issue you want to solve, the Conversational Interfaces Diagnostic Tool workflow begins using the relevant diagnostic topics and topic blocks. These topics and topic blocks are used for identifying, diagnosing, solving, and collecting data for the issue described.

    For example, the diagnostic workflow does the following:
    • Prompts you for the required data, based on the issue you want to solve.
    • Includes a list of Knowledge Base (KB) articles where you can find more information, as applicable. If you aren't finding the information you need, you can also search for additional KB articles.
    • Gives you the option of downloading diagnostic support information.
    • Lets you select another issue to solve.

    The diagnostic workflow and the options and prompts you see correspond to the issue you are trying to diagnose and solve. The diagnostic workflow uses an AI Search filter as part of the diagnosis. For more information about AI Search and how to configure it, see Configuring AI Search.

    The diagnostic topic block workflow also includes solutions for messaging integrations, such as Microsoft Teams. It also helps with Advanced Work Assignment configuration issues.
