Configuring quick actions

Quick actions are shortcuts that perform Agent Chat tasks. Agents can work more efficiently with customers by using quick actions because they don't have to enter as many characters to perform a task.

Activate quick actions

To enable your agents to use quick actions, you must activate the and related plugins for Advanced Work Assignment, which is required for chat in Workspace.

Default quick actions

The following quick actions are available by default with Workspace chat:

Command name	Toolbar button	Action	Default parameter
autopilot		Starts a Virtual Agent topic (Conversation Autopilot).	Available topics
help		Indicates to the chat supervisor that an agent needs help with a conversation. To use this quick action, new customers must enable Agent Chat and Agent Whisper and update customers must enable Agent Whisper on chat setup.
r		Uses Response templates to insert as text in a conversation. 주: Only response templates that have a condition of [Type][is][Chat] are available in Agent Chat.	Available response templates
search-kb		Starts a KB article search. The agent is prompted to search for the relevant KB article. Based on the search term the agent enters, the agent is able to view the KB articles that match the search term. The agent can then select the KB article.
ta		Transfers the conversation to another agent.	Available agents
tq		Transfers the conversation to another queue.	Available queues
