The GlideConversation API provides methods to access information in a Connect message.  
Important:  
Starting with the Paris release, Connect Support no longer receives enhancements or
non-priority bug fixes. Consider moving to ServiceNow®
Advanced Work Assignment and Agent Chat in workspace to automatically
assign chat requests and other work items to agents. For details, see [Move from Connect Support to Advanced Work
Assignment and Agent Chat](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=migrate-from-connect-support&version=xanadu&pubname=xanadu-servicenow-platform&ft:locale=en-US).

Access GlideConversation properties through a global object (conversation) that is available only in Connect action conditions and scripts.

Connect conversations are stored on the Live Group Profile \[live_group_profile\] table.
