You can now trigger Automation rules from Jira Service Management’s virtual service agent!

 

Hello Atlassian Community! 👋

We're thrilled to announce a new feature in Jira Service Management’s virtual service agent that will supercharge help seeker experience and issue deflection: you can now connect Automation rules to conversation flows. This means you can perform actions across Atlassian products seamlessly – right from your conversation flows!

How does it work?

  • Set up an Automation rule with the Conversation Flow Step trigger: The Conversation Flow Step trigger is designed to trigger automation rules from the virtual service agent.
  • Configure fields you want to pass from virtual agent to the rule: The Conversation Flow Step trigger allows you to configure the name and type of data that will be passed in the trigger and use them as smart values

  • Connect to the Automation rule in the Virtual Service Agent intent flow: You can connect to the Automation rule with the Run Automation Rule node in the virtual service agent intent flow builder. In this node, you can select your rule from a drop down list of all rules that have a Conversation Flow trigger. 
  • Configure the fields you want to pass from the intent flow: When you select a rule, you will be prompted to enter values for the fields configured in the rule. You can set default values or pass values from custom fields or variables here.

That's it, you're good to go! When the intent is live, data from conversations can be passed to trigger the automation rule

Nice one @Srini Chakravarthy !

I'm guessing this is not only available on Enterprise plans but for Premium as well.
