Modifying the default Incidents ServiceNow tool settings


As an administrator, configure the Incidents ServiceNow tool to help agents retrieve active incident data from ServiceNow and respond to incident-related queries through the Employee Navigator interface. This setup improves support efficiency and enhances the overall user experience.

The Incidents ServiceNow tool is available in HelixGPT Agent Studio, 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 a prebuilt agent, because you can only add a custom tool to a cloned prebuilt agent.

For more information, see Cloning an agent.

To modify the default Incidents ServiceNow tool settings

  1. Add a new tool in your environment. For more information, see Creating and editing tools and toolkits.
    The new tool must replicate the field value configuration of the existing prebuilt Incidents ServiceNow tool.
  2. In the Configuration field, modify the following settings:
    SettingDescription
    sys_paramsA comma-separated list of fields that define the incident attributes returned in the response. The sys_id and number fields are always included in the response, even if they are not added.
    limitThe number of incidents returned per query.

    Default configuration:

    {
      "sys_params": "short_description,description,urgency,sys_updated_on,state,comments,sys_created_on",
      "limit": 10
    }
  3. Click Save.
