## Procedure

1. Navigate to WorkspacesAgent Workspace for HRSD.
2. Open the inbox and accept the chat interaction.  
   In the Active Chat section of the interaction, a summary of the Virtual Agent conversation is generated. The summary includes the actions that were taken before the requester engaged with the live agent. With this information, you can get an overview of what the requester has already mentioned in the Virtual Agent conversation and troubleshoot the issue.
3. Chat with the requester to get any additional details about their question or issue, if needed.  
   For example, if the requester is having an issue with hardware, you may need the hardware model number and serial number.
4. In the chat message window, either type a response, or leave blank, and then select the Now Assist icon ![Sparkle icon for Now Assist.]()
