It provides clear summaries with root cause analysis and actionable recommendations for resolution.\n\n## Workflow\n\n1.  Identify what to investigate.\n\n    The agent uses a provided CloudWatch alarm name or identifies an active alarm associated with a provided entity.\n\n2.  Gather context about the alarm and investigate metrics and logs.\n3.  Return findings, including a summary of alarm history, probable causes, and recommended next steps.\n\nFor more information about configuring this AI agent, see [Configure observability agents for ServiceNow Otto](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/it-operations-management/configure-integration-agents-for-now-assist.md).\n\n<table><thead><tr><th>\n\nField\n\n</th><th>\n\nDescription\n\n</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>\n\nAllow third party to access this AI agent\n\n</td><td>\n\nWhen enabled, third-party AI agents can use this agent.
