In AI Helpdesk chat, you can use commands prefixed with ! to perform actions quickly.
In a channel, send commands with a Bot mention. Inside a thread, you can type the command directly without a mention.

Command reference

How to use each command

!help — View the command list

Use this to see available commands at any time.

!escalate — Escalate to an operator

Hand off a problem the AI cannot solve to a human operator.
To escalate to a specific person, mention them.
If the specified user does not have the Operator role, the session enters the unassigned queue.
See Requesting escalation to an operator for details.

!assign — Change the session assignee

Assign the session to a different operator.
To return to the AI agent, use ai.
When you run !assign ai, the session returns to the AI agent. The Bot posts “Session returned to AI agent,” and the AI resumes on your next message.

!close — Close the session

When the issue is resolved, close the session.
A closed session cannot be reopened. If you message the same thread again, the Bot will guide you to start a new session.

!status — Check the session status

Check who the session is currently assigned to and its current state.

!feedback — Submit feedback

Send feedback about the quality of the AI response.

!approve / !deny — Respond to an approval request

Use these when the AI asks for approval before taking an action, if a request is currently pending.
The approval routing configuration limits who can respond. If you are not the designated approver, the command has no effect.

!lang — Check or change your language preference

Check or change your language preference. Without an argument, this shows your current setting.
You can specify en, ja, or system (follow the tenant default).

!tone — Check or change your conversation tone preference

Check or change the AI response tone. Without an argument, this shows your current setting.
You can specify formal or casual.

If a command does not work

  • Make sure the Bot mention is correctly included
  • Sending a command in the channel (outside a thread) may create a new session
  • Ask your IT team to check the Bot configuration
