# Using a Response template in chat

Use response templates as reusable messages that you can copy and paste into a chat.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn\_hr\_core.case\_writer

The Advanced Work Assignment for HRSD \(com.sn\_hr\_awa\) plugin must be activated to use response templates in chat. For more information, see [Response templates for HR Service Delivery](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/employee-service-management/hr-service-delivery/hr-templated-snippets.md).

**Note:** Currently, chat is only available for Interactions in Agent Workspace for HR Case Management.

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **HR Case Management** > **Agent Workspace for HR Case Management**.

2.  Ensure your **Inbox** status is set to **Available**.

3.  When a chat routes to you, select Accept.

4.  An interaction record automatically creates and you can start chatting with the employee.

    To display response templates, enter /r in the chat area and a list of response templates appear.

5.  Select the response template and the text appears in the chat window.

6.  Select the Send button to transmit the message.
