LITTLE TIME FOR QUALITY INTERACTIONS:
Your challenge without Microsoft Power Virtual Agents.
Do a number of inquiries or problems (e.g. with customers or employees) occur repeatedly with you? Do your employees spend a lot of time answering the same requests over and over again?

-
What data sources does Power Virtual Agents use?
Power Virtual Agents offers a huge variety of interfaces to different data sources, allowing the chatbot to launch complex queries in a fraction of a second and thus send high quality responses to visitors/customers. These data sources come from both third-party vendors and Microsoft itself.
For example, you can connect your CRM system or other components of the Power Platform such as the Power Automate application. By connecting to Power Automate, custom workflows can be integrated.
-
What is the purpose of integrating Power Automate?
Because Power Virtual Agents is a component of the Microsoft Power Platform, the application can work seamlessly with the other components. One of these components is Power Automate. Integration with the chatbot means that you can create custom workflows using hundreds of connectors and map complex chat histories.
For example, you can create a flow for weather forecasting. You do this by setting up the workflow in Power Automate using a weather connector and making it available to the bot. Then, when a user asks if it’s going to rain today, the flow could trigger the bot to ask for the user’s city and zip code and then output the weather forecast.
-
Where can I integrate the created chatbot?
With Power Virtual Agents, you can publish bots to connect with your customers on multiple platforms or channels. These include live websites, mobile apps, and messaging platforms like Microsoft Teams and Facebook.
-
What happens if the bot cannot answer a question?
If the chatbot does not know the answer to the questions asked by the user, the user can be referred to a service employee. This ensures that your customers get the support they need at all times.
-
Can I evaluate the chat history?
You can monitor and improve bot performance at any time. With Power Virtual Agents, you can monitor the performance of your bots using powerful metrics and AI-driven dashboards. Easily see which topics are doing well and where the bot can improve, and make quick adjustments to improve performance.
-
How does Power Virtual Agents fit into the Microsoft world?
Power Virtual Agents works hand in hand with other Microsoft products, such as the other components of the Power Platform and Dynamics 365, so you can connect Power Virtual Agents with Dynamics 365 Customer Service Insights for a holistic view of your customer service operations. You can share Customer Service Insights and Power Virtual Agents to determine what issues are trending or consuming support resources and then easily automate them.
-
Does the bot also use artificial intelligence?
Yes, it is possible to integrate Microsoft Cognitive Services, which are part of Microsoft Azure, into the chatbot. This is a summary of several AI services. With the help of the Language Understanding Intelligent Service (LUIS) the bot can for example detect the intention of the user. It is able to understand speech acoustically or to convert its own messages into speech and output them.
However, chat communication is not limited to text. The user can also upload pictures. This results in application scenarios in which image recognition appears to be useful. Examples could be that a barcode, meter reading or a complete invoice is read using text recognition. The user then does not have to type these in a complicated way.
-
Can I customize the appearance of the bot?
The default appearance of the bot is defined by the bot’s canvas. This is the concept and design of the bot. You can customize the canvas in two ways, depending on the complexity of the customizations:
- Customize the default canvas with JavaScript-based styling in the HTML code for the Website where you deploy your bot. Customizing the default canvas is useful if you want to make small adjustments without investing in code development.
- Use a custom canvas based on the Bot Framework web chat canvas. Connecting to a custom canvas requires extensive development skills and is useful for organizations that want to fully customize the user experience.
