手順

1. On any CI form (while creating, viewing, or updating a CI record) select the Now Assist icon for a field.

   Now Assist displays the description of the attribute. In this example, while creating a CI record, the user views the description of the MAC Address attribute.

   

2. オプション: Select Ask a follow-up to learn more about the attribute.
   The Now Assist panel opens. Select one of the suggested questions or enter a different question about any field or section of the form. Now Assist responds to your follow-up question. For more information, see Working in the Now Assist panel.
3. オプション: Provide feedback, copy the response text to the clipboard, or refresh the response.

   Option	Procedure
   Provide feedback for the summary	If you think that the response was helpful, select thumbs-up . If you think that it wasn’t helpful, select thumbs-down . This feedback improves the Agentic AI model and can help to improve the future versions of this skill. The system gathers the feedback on each generated response and stores it in the Agentic AI logs (sys_generative_ai_log_list.do).
   Copy the summary	Select the copy to clipboard icon to use the response information for another purpose, such as pasting into an email.
   Refresh the summary	If you think that data might have changed after you viewed the response, select the redo icon to refresh the response information.
