As an agent or knowledge writer, quickly generate knowledge articles from resolved and closed incidents within the Service Operations Workspace for ITSM application and classic environment by using the Now Assist application.

## Vorbereitungen


You can generate a knowledge article in any incident state that is set by your administrator using the com.snc.incident.create_knowledge.multistate.enable system property. The incident must also not have an existing knowledge article that is associated with it.

The Knowledge generation skill is turned on by default. The skill will be automatically available to appropriate role users for the application. When new customers install a Now Assist product, designated skills are turned on
automatically. For existing users who upgrade, there will be no change to the skill activation. For more information, see [Now Assist skills, agents, and agentic workflows on by default](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=now-assist-skills-on-by-default&version=australia&pubname=australia-intelligent-experiences&ft:locale=en-US).  
Wichtig:  
* Install the applications and plugins listed in the tables below and update them to the corresponding store app version before configuring the Knowledge Generation skill.
* For information on the plugin version numbers that correspond to the release you're installing, see <https://store.servicenow.com/store/app/2c09636e1be06a50a85b16db234bcb74#versionSummary>

## Prozedur

1. Navigate to WorkspacesService Operations Workspace.
2. Open an incident that is assigned to you.  
   In the incident record, resolve and close the incident.
3. Create the article by selecting the Create knowledge option from the UI action drop-down menu in the incident.  
   Hinweis:  
   * The Create knowledge UI action is only visible when an incident doesn't have an existing knowledge article that is associated with it.
   * When the Create knowledge action is initiated, it gets redirected to an interceptor page. The Knowledge article interceptor page displays only when the KCS integration for incident management (com.snc.incident.knowledge) plugin is not installed. A series of steps is then executed within the [Knowledge Management application](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=knowledge-management&version=australia&pubname=australia-servicenow-platform&ft:locale=en-US).  
     This includes determining if the following actions must be done:
     * Display the write option using Now Assist.
     * Present a list of similar records.
     * Generate a submission record if the glide.knowman.submission.workflow property is enabled.
     {#Now-Assist-generate-article-SOW-itsm__ul_ztv_kbk_jhc}
   * If you encounter a duplicate Create Knowledge button, see the [Resolving duplicate Create Knowledge actions](https://www.servicenow.com/community/itsm-articles/issue-and-resolution-two-quot-create-knowledge-quot-actions-in/ta-p/3418702) community article for the resolution.
   {#Now-Assist-generate-article-SOW-itsm__ul_ydl_tfz_2hc}
4. In the Knowledge article interceptor page, select a knowledge base and an article template.

5. Select Next.  
   Hinweis:  
   When you use the standard template, the content from the incident's Description, Resolution, and Additional comments fields are populated in the Issue, Resolution, and Additional comments sections respectively in the article body of the standard template.
6. In the Use AI to draft this article? modal, choose to write the article yourself, or draft an article with Now Assist.  
7. **Wahlweise:** If you're drafting the article with Now Assist, you can choose up to five relevant tasks for the creation of the article, and select Use selected tasks to help draft new article; otherwise, select Cancel.  

   When creating an article that includes information that spans multiple similar incidents, a single article is created containing the details from the selected incidents.

   The article appears in a new tab,
   has a unique ID number for the knowledge article, and is attached to the parent record.
8. Review the article and edit it if necessary.  
9. Select Save or Publish.  
   * The Now Assist success message disappears indicating that it's no longer a Now Assist generated article.
   * If Now LLM Service fails to generate a result, you see an error message.
   * When creating an article using Now Assist, the process once triggered can't be stopped. Now Assist continues to generate the article even if you close the dialog box.
   * Hinweis:  
     You can edit a knowledge article in an incident using the Edit knowledge article button. This button displays under the following conditions:
     * When the incident is in resolved or closed state or for any state your system administrator has enabled the com.snc.incident.create_knowledge.multistate.enable system property.
     * If you have only one article attached to the incident and you have write access to the article.
