Ask a question
When you sign in to any of the Customer Service agent apps, copilot becomes activated on the right pane with the Ask a Question tab in focus. Copilot acts as your partner that can help answer questions without you having to search knowledge sources or other articles for information.
You can ask free-form questions as you would ask a colleague or supervisor who might know the answers.
With copilot, you can perform the following actions:
Ask a direct question: Copilot displays the pertinent response from the wealth of knowledge sources set up by your organization.
Ask follow-up turn-by-turn questions: If the copilot doesn't provide the correct answer right away, you can engage in a conversation and guide the copilot to deliver the accurate response in a natural, conversational manner.
Ask the copilot for a better response: Copilot can also rephrase answers based on additional guidance. For example, you can ask, "Can you summarize your response?" or "Can you provide a detailed explanation for each of the steps you mentioned?"
If you are satisfied with the copilot's response, use it in whole or in part to address the customer's inquiry.
Manually copy the portions of the copilot's response that you find helpful into your chat or read them aloud during a voice conversation. You can also select the copy icon to copy the content to your clipboard directly.
To respond to the customer, use the "Send to Customer" option, which is available during an active digital messaging conversation. When you select "Send to Customer," an editing window will open, allowing you to modify the response provided by the copilot before sending it directly to the customer. You can also adjust customer keywords, which will help the copilot generate a more accurate response.
Select "Check Sources" to view the pertinent knowledge or website links that Copilot has used to generate the response. You can utilize this additional information as a resource or share it with the customer.
Summarize conversations
Copilot conversation summaries efficiently offer context and convey the actions you have already undertaken to resolve the problem. You can summarize both chat and transcribed voice interactions.
Based on the triggers enabled by your administrator, the Copilot conversation summary is generated as follows:
Automatically when you request a consultation with another agent, transfer the conversation, or end the conversation.
When you select "Summarize conversation" on the ongoing dialog.
