Link your ServiceNow account
to a third-party messaging application to access non-public Virtual Agent topics that use ServiceNow records.

## Antes de Iniciar

Role required: user

## Por Que e Quando Desempenhar Esta Tarefa

If the same email account is defined for both your messaging and ServiceNow accounts, then when you first use the Virtual Agent, your messaging account is automatically linked to your ServiceNow account.

However, after you unlink your messaging account from your ServiceNow account (using the logout command), then each time you start a new Virtual Agent session, the bot gives you the option to link to your ServiceNow account or continue as a guest. The authentication step (linking) occurs in your instance or in a specific Service Portal, as set by your admin.

## Procedimento

1. Open the messaging application.
2. Find your Virtual Agent bot.
3. Start a conversation with your Virtual Agent bot.  
   The bot then presents a prompt that provides options to authenticate (Link to ServiceNow), Continue as Guest, or use the Check out Tips.
4. Select Link to ServiceNow to authenticate.  

   Authentication directs you to your instance or a specific Service Portal set by your admin. If you're not already logged in to your instance or a Service Portal, you're prompted to enter your login credentials.  
   Nota:  
   If a user is unlinked or continued as a guest, notifications are disabled. Also, only the public topics are discoverable.
   Figura 1. Check out Tips
5. In the confirmation that appears prompting you to Confirm or Deny linkage between your accounts, select Confirm to enable the account link.
6. After confirmation, you're directed to your instance user record.  
   A confirmation message is displayed at the top of the screen.

Users who do not have linked accounts complete authentication before continuing with the virtual agent in the messaging application.")
