    6. Choose when you want the skill to be available.

      You can select Skill is always available if you don’t want to place any restrictions on when the skill is available for use. If you want to add conditions, select Customize skill availability. Selecting this option opens up a condition builder for you to select fields and values that determine whether someone can use the skill.

    7. Choose the inputs or email parameters, including input data and whether you want to display template suggestions.

      Some options may be read-only in certain workflows.

      Additional context can improve the quality of the email recommendation. In the Additional input fields field, you can choose any fields not already selected in the Default input fields. You can include Knowledge articles by selecting the check box. You can choose a field from related records, such as resolution notes, in the Related record field. If there’s no value for the related record field or you don’t select one, you can also opt to include activity from related records.

      If you select Show template recommendations, then agents see a list of template suggestions generated by Now Assist when they go to select a template.
