    Role required: admin

    About this task

    From the Now Assist Admin console, you can select the input table, related records, and fields for each input template of the account onboarding and service problem management, and then configure the prompt headers to include them in the general summary.

    Procedure

    1. Navigate to All > Now Assist Admin > Features to access the Now Assist Features tab of the Now Assist Admin console.
    2. In the Customer workflow group, select TMT to view the skills for the Now Assist for TMT features.
    3. Activate and copy the Now Assist for TMT feature case summarization skill for customization.
      1. On the feature card that is associated with the skill that you would like to activate, select View details.
      2. In the All available skills section, locate the skill you would like to activate and select Activate skill.

        You can choose to make a copy of the skill before activating it.

      3. Select the More actions icon for the skill in the Active skills section, and create a copy that you can customize by selecting Make a copy.

        The copy that you make is listed in the Active skills section.

      4. Select the copied skill from the Active skills section to open it.
        A guided setup leads you through the configuration of the general details, input, prompt, availability, display, review, and activation of the customized skill. If you complete the entire walk-through, the case summarization skill is activated.
    4. In the General details step, fill in the fields.
      For information about the inputs and triggers for each skill, see Skill inputs for Now Assist for Telecommunications, Media and Technology (TMT).
      1. Enter a name and description for the skill.
      2. Select Save and continue to go to the next step.
    5. View the input data for each skill, such as the base input fields and related lists for the different input templates.

      Configure the base input table fields and related lists for the different input templates for the skill.

      Each skill relies on a base input table and input fields with descriptions to provide context for the Now LLM Service to generate a response.

      Select only those related tables that are offered as the base system, as part of the input data.

      1. For each input template, select +New base input field and configure the base input table fields.

        Add multiple base input fields, as necessary.

        The following table lists the base input table fields and descriptions, including a relevant example.
        Table 1. Base input fields
        Field Description
        Base input field

        Field in the case table whose value this skill uses in its response.

        For example, Short description.

        Field description

        Description of the base input field value.

        For example, Short description of case, provides quick info about the issue.

      2. For each input template, configure the rule conditions by using the condition builder to filter the data.

        The rule conditions determine when the input template is used. By default, the record state determines the input template that the Now LLM Service uses.

        You can build the condition out further by selecting +New condition set and configuring additional parameters.

      3. For each input template, select +New data source to configure the additional related table and activity stream data, as needed.

        Adding input data sources, like the related tables and activity streams, provide more context to the Now LLM Service in a related list.

        You can also add the rule conditions to these additional data sources.

      4. Select Save and continue to go to the next step.
    6. Customize the prompt.

      Review and test the prompt for each input template configuration. You can edit the prompt by adding new predefined sections and reordering them, as needed.

      1. For each input template, select the prompt sections from the list of available sections to include in the generated summary.

        To add a section, you must configure the relevant input data prior to this step.

        You can add the Waiting on customer prompt to cases only if the case has an Awaiting info state. Otherwise, adding this header to other states could cause the Now LLM Service to generate inaccurate or unreliable results.

      2. Select Save to continue to the test response.
      3. Select a case record in the Test response section, and test the prompt response output format by selecting Run Test.
