      Virtual Agent asks the user whether this is a new request or an update to an existing request.
      • For new requests, the bot displays categories of non-emergency services that the user can choose from.
        • If the user needs a service that isn't offered, the user can enter a short description of the issue and continue working with the bot to create a service request.
        • If the issue requires a location to be specified, the bot prompts the user to enter the address or intersection of the issue.
      • For existing requests, the bot displays the list of cases for service requests submitted by the user and then prompts the user to update the case by adding an image or comment about the case.
      The bot creates or updates the case for the service request. The user can continue working on a different issue with the bot or indicate that no further help is needed, which ends the Virtual Agent conversation.
