    Por Que e Quando Desempenhar Esta Tarefa

    Importing messages helps agents to view the history of a ticket in one place. So, the information required for post-ticket review is captured and results in continuous improvement processes.

    When an agent imports a chat, attachments within the configured file size limit are uploaded to the record. If the uploaded attachments are larger than the configured file size limit, then those attachments appear as a link to the file on the  Zoom  server.

    When an existing chat is continued, auto import occurs again. Auto import is cancelled when chats are archived.

    If a parent chat in a thread is deleted, the Import messages from Zoom form displays the text that this message was deleted. The child messages in that thread are not deleted.

    A tag with the label  External  indicates that a user is listed in the Zoom application users and not present in the ServiceNow instance, or when the user isn’t present in the Zoom application.

    Nota:

    An agent can import a chat only if there’s an existing chat record for the ticket and they’re a participant of the chat.

    Procedimento

    1. Navigate to an open task record (incident, change request, or request item) in your ServiceNow instance.
    2. Select  Import messages from Zoom from the Related Links section.
