How to Automate Ticket Responses with AI and Related Articles from Knowledge Base in Service Hub

AdvocaseyS5 — Tue, 09 Jul 2024 13:34:36 GMT

Hi Guys,

We already have a ticketing system (Service Hub - Help Desk) where users can submit tickets through email, phone, or our customer portal. When a ticket is submitted and received, I want to trigger an automated response.

The response should include suggestions for articles from our knowledge base that may help resolve the issue. Here’s a detailed breakdown of what I want to achieve:

Automated Response Trigger:
- When a ticket is received (trigger), the system should automatically send an email response to the user.
AI-Powered Article Suggestions:
- The automated email should include links to relevant knowledge base articles based on the content of the ticket. This will encourage users to try these solutions first.
Follow-Up by Support Agent:
- The email should also inform the user that a support agent will get in touch shortly if the provided articles do not resolve the issue.

Questions:

What are the best practices for setting up these automated workflows in HubSpot Service Hub?
Can anyone provide step-by-step guidance or share examples of similar implementations?
Are there specific AI tools within HubSpot that can effectively suggest relevant articles based on the ticket content?

Any insights, detailed steps, or examples would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hey @AdvocaseyS5, welcome to our Community!

To automate ticket responses in HubSpot Service Hub, you can set up a workflow that triggers an email when a ticket is created. This email can include AI-powered article suggestions from your knowledge base. Ensure your articles are well-tagged for better relevance. Inform users in the email that a support agent will follow up if the articles don't resolve the issue. Utilize HubSpot’s built-in features for AI-powered suggestions and monitor the workflow's performance to optimize it.

Kindly,

Pam

@PamCotton

To trigger automated emails to inform the customer of their ticket number and offer knowledge base articles, are these emails transactional? or Marketing emails? I do not believe Service Hub Professional includes this basic functionality, without purchasing the Transactional email add-on?

Therefore if you don't want to pay any more than the service hub fee, your alternative is to make the support contacts, marketing contacts and then you can trigger the email.

Two questions on this:

1) If the customer replies to this email, does the response go on the ticket?

2) If the customer unsubscribes, because that email allows them to, how do we send them comms?

Sound like the sequences workaround is also broken and doesn't attach communication to the ticket. So I am keen to understand how anyone believes that Service Hub is a true competitor for ZenDesk, Jira, or Freshdesk.

Really hoping you can enlighten me on this.

Hi @RGiunti,

I wanted to circle back on your question about automating ticket responses with AI and integrating a knowledge base in Service Hub. Good news: what you were looking for is definitely available! 🙂

The Breeze customer service agent (HubSpot's AI assistant) is designed to do exactly this. It's included with Service Hub Pro and Enterprise subscriptions. You can combine it with your knowledge base to provide a comprehensive support solution that automates initial responses and suggests relevant articles.

This means you can set up automated email replies to tickets that include links to helpful knowledge base articles, essentially empowering your users to self-serve while still letting them know a human agent will follow up if needed.

How it Works in Practice
You can also monitor your agent's activity in real time directly from the help center and the conversations inbox. This gives your team visibility into how the AI is interacting with customers, allowing them to step in whenever necessary.

For more detailed information on Service Hub pricing and features, you can always check out the HubSpot pricing page.

Hope this update helps anyone looking to streamline their support with AI! Let me know if you have any more questions.

Best,

Diana

You can automate ticket responses in a service hub by using AI models that analyze incoming queries, match them with relevant knowledge base articles, and generate suggested replies. This reduces response time and ensures customers get accurate, consistent information. Over time, the system can learn from past interactions to improve relevance. Platforms like Agentra show how AI-driven support tools are being adapted in different contexts, where automation works alongside human teams instead of fully replacing them.

Hi @OliviaReed3, I hope you’re having a great day 😊

Thank you so much for sharing your insights with the HubSpot Community!

I’d love to learn more about how a tool like Agentra might offer some extra features beyond what Service Hub provides.

Could you share a bit more about what sets Agentra apart, or anything unique it brings to the table?

If you have any screenshots or examples showing how the integration works, that would be super helpful for everyone here too!

Thanks again for contributing, we really appreciate it! 🚀

Have a nice day!

You can automate ticket responses in a service hub using ai agents. The AI can read incoming tickets, suggest replies, and pull relevant articles from your knowledge base to help customers quickly. It can also categorize and prioritize tickets, sending complex issues to the right team while handling routine queries automatically. Over time, the AI learns from past tickets and feedback to improve its responses.

Is it possible to send out a general ticket response, "Hi, thanks for reaching out. We'll be reviewing this on our end and will follow up shortly. All the best," before pulling out AI responses that use the KB articles?
