A support agent is assigned to customer threads, replies, updates status, and hands off to a user when it cannot help. Create a machine user, then assign threads to it yourself or with a workflow (channel, labels, customer tier, support hours). See build a support agent.
Bring your own agent is currently free to use while in beta. Please note, the API is subject to change.
