    Recommended actions

    Recommended actions appear as cards in the contextual side panel of your workspace. Depending on the open record type, these cards contain information to help find the fastest resolution path, minimizing time spent researching and gathering information from different sources.

    You can take three types of actions:
    • Guidance: An action that can be performed or helpful information to share.
    • Decision tree: A guided flow to follow that walks you through a series of questions that help you determine the appropriate action.
    • Field recommendations: Recommended values to use for the fields in the record. Recommended field values are auto-filled or shown as messages underneath the fields for the new records. The recommended field values are shown as messages only underneath the fields for the existing records.

    • Hint that briefly describes the recommendation.
    • Preview that shows a short summary of the recommended action, which can include an image and links to helpful articles.
    • Options to accept or dismiss the action.

    When multiple cards are displayed, they’re arranged according to the Order value set when they were created.

    Primary and secondary actions

    The recommendation that you select determines what is displayed next in the contextual side panel or subtab and how the record is updated. Some actions involve a single selection that is performed immediately such as Acknowledge, Attach and add link in comment. Other actions might have secondary actions that you can enable after selecting the primary action in the card. The following table explains a few primary and secondary actions.
