The first intents for your Magic Agents Service Catalog

Updated by Tom Sopwith

The fastest way to get started building intents is to build out some of the intents from our Service Catalog. All you need to do is copy-paste some of our recommended intents into your Catalog.

1. Start by Creating these intents

We had Magic AI analyze thousands of tickets and identify the top request categories to build intents for. Follow the guides below to create our recommended intents. Following these guides will teach you how to build and manage intents to handle approximately 50% of your service volume. What about the rest? That's where the master intent comes in!

You don't need to build all of these intents, but we recommend building at least 10!

2. Want to build something specific? Ask Magic Agent for help

Do you have an idea for an intent but not sure what to build? Magic Agent can help build your intents!

Yes! We built an intent to create intents! This intent is available when messaging our Help Desk at getthread.com/help - start a support chat with us and ask for help building your next intent our agent will assist you!

Try it out:

  1. Navigate to getthread.com/help
  2. Start a new support chat
  3. Ask for assistance creating an intent
    Example:
I'm an IT Managed Service provider. I manage backups for my customers computer workstations, servers, onedrive, etc. I need help crafting an intent to manage data retrieval requests. Here are some examples of data retrieval requests I get from my customers: “I accidentally deleted a file from my workstation. Can you restore it from the backup?” “We need to retrieve an archived email from six months ago for compliance reasons.” “Can you restore the files from the 'Projects' folder on our shared drive to their version from last Friday?” “Our server crashed, and we need a full restore of all data from the last nightly backup.” “Can you recover files from John’s OneDrive? He left the company, and we need access to his project files.” “We lost access to the old SQL database. Can you restore the most recent backup?”
  1. In the chat, you can ask the agent to refine the intent it builds until you are happy with it.
  2. When you're happy with the output, navigate to Thread Admin -> Magic AI -> Agent -> Catalog -> Create Intent and copy over the intent it created.
  3. Try it out!
