Updated June 14, 2026
Creating an agent
Agents are the AI entities that respond to customer tickets. Each agent has its own personality, knowledge sources, and escalation rules.
Name & Description
Give the agent a clear name (e.g. "Support Bot") and a short description of its purpose.
Tone
Choose how the agent communicates: Professional, Friendly, Concise, or Empathetic. This shapes the style of every reply.
System Prompt
An optional free-text field for detailed instructions. Use it to set rules like:
- "Never discuss competitor products."
- "Always refer users to the refund policy page."
