With System Actions, you give your AI Agent action instructions that are not based on the knowledge database, but rather on direct inputs from contacts, for example.
An example:
Have your AI Agent automatically initiate a transfer of the conversation to a human operator when the contact uses certain keywords or the AI detects a specific tone. This way, you can immediately connect contacts who are considering cancellation with the appropriate team member, for example.

Create a new Action by clicking the "Add" button in the Connect AI menu under Actions > System Actions. Then select the desired action type:

- Add note

Give the action an internal name and then describe as precisely as possible in the "Prompt" field in which situations the bot should execute the action.
After you have created a System Action, you still need to make it available to your AI Agent.
Select from the overview which System Actions should be available to which AI Agents and Copilots.
