Search Expert with Forms

You can use forms in Agent Builder to help customers search a knowledge base, such as Expert. For this to work, you need to have the Expert Mpower Agentskill set up first. In the script integration that's added with the skill, ensure that it has an action set up with the slot used in your form.

Akela has an integration to Expert, a knowledge management tool. She realizes this can help her Mpower Agent provide results from the database when customers have questions. In her Mpower Agent's opening message, Akela adds a statement letting the customer know the Mpower Agent can do this.

First, she creates a form to fill the slot search_query and creates a rule to activate the form. Then she creates a rule to submit the form and perform the search.
