  • AI Search Assist is a Service Portal widget that uses AI Search to improve incident deflection by displaying the most relevant set of related Catalog Item and knowledge article search results within a record producer. You can use AI Search Assist instead of Contextual Search.

    AI Search Assist overview

    AI Search Assist can help a user find the most relevant Catalog Items and knowledge articles in a search on your portal. For example, a user, creating an Incident via the Service Portal, can see related Catalog Items that the user can order. The user can also view related knowledge articles to assist them to resolve the issue on their own without involving the service desk.

    AI Search Assist helps with incident deflection for incident record producers, deflecting incidents by helping end users resolve issues before they raise an incident.

    AI Search Assist supports ServiceNow mobile.
    Note:
    AI Search Assist doesn't support external users. If an external user tries to use an Assist UI action, the system returns an error.

    Activation information
