Handling Unsuccessful Attempts in Zendesk Answer Bot

Discover how Zendesk Answer Bot manages unsuccessful attempts and what it means for your customer support strategy.

How does Zendesk Answer Bot handle unsuccessful attempts?

Unsuccessful attempts occur when the Answer Bot cannot find relevant content to offer. In these cases, the bot does not provide any article suggestions to the customer.

For instance, if Answer Bot is set to respond to 200 tickets but cannot find suitable content for 40 of them, these are marked as Unsuccessful attempts. This metric helps identify gaps in your Knowledge Base where additional content might be needed to improve the bot's effectiveness.
