The agent answers questions about Enterprise Architecture data based on Common Service Data Model (CSDM) 5.0 entities and their relationships. It covers business capabilities, business applications, services, infrastructure, integrations, value streams, AI systems, technology standards, and conformance.

Workflow

The agent helps the user explore, analyze, and get answers about their Enterprise Architecture data.

  1. Interpret the user's question and identify the architecture entities it refers to. Ask for clarification only when required information is missing, such as which owner field the user means.
  2. Retrieve the requested data, such as application rationalization scores, capability health, technology risk, architectural artifacts, relationships between entities, and field-level details.
  3. Trace upstream or downstream dependencies from a named item when the user asks about impact or dependencies.
  4. For questions about missing relationships, such as applications with no assigned service, combine results from multiple queries to answer the question completely.
  5. Try alternative approaches when a query returns no results before reporting that no data was found.
  6. Present the answer in plain text with links to the relevant records, summarizing large result sets and offering to show more.
  7. Highlight notable patterns in the data, such as low scores or coverage gaps, and suggest two or three follow-up questions based on the results.

Field

Description

Allow third party to access this AI agent

When enabled, third-party AI agents can use this agent. This value is off (false) by default. This setting is defined in the AI Agent configs [sn_aia_agent_config] table on the External discoverable field.

Allow AI specialists to access this AI agent

When enabled, AI specialists can use this agent. This value is off (false) by default. When set to true, more configuration options for tools become available so that an AI specialist can map inputs and response templates to tool outputs. This setting is defined in the AI Agent configs [sn_aia_agent_config] table on the Specialist enabled field.

Manage long-term memory

When enabled, all previous user interactions are used as context for the LLM. This value is off (false) by default. This setting is defined by the sn_aia.ltm.enable_long_term_memory system property. For more information, see ServiceNow Otto AI agents reference.
