The Email Interaction Summarization skill generates summaries of email threads, helping agents quickly understand the context of a customer interaction without reading the full conversation history. Summaries are generated on demand when an agent selects the summarize option on an email interaction.

Select Customer > CSM.
On the Now Assist for CSM skills for page, locate the Email Interaction Summarization skill and select it to open the skill details.
Select Activate skill.

Note: By default, the skill is inactive.
Complete the guided setup.
In Review and activate, review your configuration.
Select Activate.

Result

The Email Interaction Summarization skill is active. Agents can select the summarize option on an email interaction to generate an on-demand summary of the email thread.
