# Monitor the HR chat queue

Employees can ask a question from the **Chat with HR** link on the HR Portal. Their question is placed in the HR chat queue, and any HR agent monitoring the queue can respond to it.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn\_hr\_core.admin

**Note:**

Connect Support will be deprecated. For similar capabilities, please move to Advanced Work Assignment and Agent Chat. For details, see [Move from Connect Support to Advanced Work Assignment and Agent Chat](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/conversational-interfaces/migrate-from-connect-support.md).

## About this task

By default, all members of the HR group monitor the HR chat queue. When a question is submitted to the queue, a pop-up notification appears.

\[Omitted image "HRChatQueueNotification.png"\] Alt text: Alert chat queue message that a customer has joined queue.

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **Collaborate** > **Connect Support**.

    The Connect workspace opens in a new tab.

2.  Click the support tab of the Connect sidebar, indicated by a headset icon \(\[Omitted image "IconSupport.png"\] Alt text: Support icon\).

    The support tab displays **Queues** to which you belong. It also displays your open support conversations under **Cases**. When a user starts a support conversation or an agent transfers a conversation to a queue, any agent who belongs to the associated queue can accept the conversation.

 The conversation opens in the conversation pane. The agent who transferred the conversation can stay in the conversation.

</table>4.  Respond to the user and help resolve the issue.

    By default, your messages are added to the conversation record as comments and are visible to the user.


## What to do next

If necessary, you can open a new HR case or incident from the conversation for further investigation. You can also transfer the conversation to a different agent or queue, or escalate the conversation to a higher priority queue.
