Set up a backup workflow when Fin AI Agent reaches a resolution limit

Julia avatar
Shared by Julia • July 12, 2024

We've introduced a new Workflow action called “Resolution limit reached” that can be used to trigger a backup workflow once your Fin AI Agent usage limit has been reached. There are two ways to set this up:

Use case 1: Workflow branching

Create a workflow branch with the “Let Fin answer” step as one branch path, and the new “Resolution limit reached” action as the other path.

Use case 2: Audience targeting

Use the new action in the Audience panel. This workflow will trigger once the usage limit has been reached.

Note: this is available to customers with access to the Workflows product.

Automation

Improved email automation targeting with new email predicates

Julia avatar
Shared by Julia • June 28, 2024

We have introduced new Email predicates so that you can better target your email automations:

  • Email Recipient: use this predicate if you want to target any email address(es) users add to the "To" or "Cc" fields
  • Email To: for targeting email addresses users add only to the “To” field
  • Email Cc: for targeting email addresses users add only to the “Cc” field

With this, you can:

  • Define the audience you want to target for your automation to ensure that your automations only trigger in the intended scenarios.
  • Create branches within Workflows to trigger conditional logic

Here are some examples of how you can use this:

1. Ensure Fin only replies when your support team has been emailed directly, and not just Cc’d

2. When your support team has been cc’d to an Email, you can enable Fin to reply to these emails by using Email Cc in audience targeting; you can instruct Fin to wait for some time before replying to give your teammates a chance to reply first.

3. You can also use these predicates as branches within a workflow. In this example, Fin replies immediately if the support email address is present in the To field, but waits for one hour before replying if the address is only in Cc.
