Modifying the default Profile ServiceNow tool settings
As an administrator, configure the Profile ServiceNow tool to help agents retrieve user profile details from ServiceNow and respond to profile-related queries through the Employee Navigator interface. This setup improves support efficiency and enhances the overall user experience.
The Profile ServiceNow tool is available out-of-the-box, but you cannot modify it directly. However, you can add a new tool to modify the default tool configuration.
Before you begin
Make sure you have cloned an out-of-the-box agent, because you can only add a custom tool to a cloned out-of-the-box agent.
For more information, see Cloning an agent.
To modify the default Profile ServiceNow tool settings
- Add a new tool in your environment. For more information, see Adding tool and toolkit for an AI Agent.
The new tool must replicate the field value configuration of the existing out-of-the-box Profile ServiceNow tool. - In the Configuration field, modify the following settings:
Setting Description include_documents A Boolean value that determines whether related references are included in the response. sys_params A comma-separated list of fields that define the profile attributes returned in the response. limit The number of profiles returned per query. reportees_limit The number of reportees returned per profile. Default configuration:
{
"include_documents": false,
"sys_params": "name,email,manager.name,location.name,reportees,sys_id",
"limit": 10,
"reportees_limit": 20
} - Click Save.
