Make Copilot available to agents

For agents to be able to use the copilot features, you need to enable the copilot features in agent experience profiles. By default, agents added to the out-of-the-box agent experience profiles can use the Copilot features.

If you'd like to limit the features that agents can use, you can create a custom agent experience profile and enable the required features. You can then assign the custom profile to the agents.

Perform the following steps to add the Copilot features to an agent experience profile:

  1. Go to Agent experience profiles using one of the following navigation options:

    • Agent experience > Workspaces
    • Copilot for questions and emails > Agent access > agent experience profiles
  2. Select the required agent experience profile.

  3. On the Productivity Pane, turn on the *Copilot for questions and emails toggle so that agents can use the Copilot features such suggest a response, ask a question, and write an email on the productivity pane.
