Accessing Recommended Actions for ITSM panel
Agents access recommended actions in Service Operations Workspace to view a list of recommendations that help resolve incidents. They can also manually search for AI-powered recommendations to quickly find solutions.
There are two ways that an agent can view the recommendations when resolving incidents: as actionable real-time recommendations in the side panel or as field-level recommendations while updating or creating the records in Service Operations Workspace.
The recommended actions panel search results are available in the following records:
-
Incident
Note: Incidents offer field-level recommendations in Service Operations Workspace.
-
Incident task
-
Problem
-
Problem task
-
Change request

For incident records, select the Recommendations icon ([Omitted image "recommended-actions-icon.png"] Alt text: Recommended Actions icon.) to display the Recommended actions and Search subtabs, as shown in the following diagram.

Note: The Search subtab enables you to manually search for AI-powered recommendations.
For other records, selecting the Recommendations icon ([Omitted image "recommended-actions-icon.png"] Alt text: Recommended Actions icon.) displays only the AI-powered search results, as shown in the following diagram.
[Omitted image "AI-search_powered_recommendations.png"] Alt text: AI-powered search results
For more information, see Get guidance-based recommendations.
Agents can view field-level recommendations in the fields of an incident form in Service Operations Workspace.
Note: If you're on a version earlier than 4.2, field-level recommendations appear as messages below the field. This will no longer be supported in future versions.

Starting with version 4.2, field recommendations appear in a drop-down list when you select the field. For more information, see Get field recommendations.
