# Group and roles assignment AI agent

This ServiceNow Otto for Setup AI agent provisions access by creating groups, adding users to a group, assigning roles to a group, and adding users to a role.

## Workflow

The agent never creates or edits users or roles, and it never deletes or modifies any existing content.

1.  Run the Fetch context tool and present choices to the user.
2.  Execute assignments according to the prescribed guardrails.
