Create Copilot for Agents Profiles

This is the second step of setting up Copilot for Agents. The first step is to contact your Account Representative to enable Copilot for Agents and Agent Assist Hub for your organization.

You need to create at least one Copilot for Agents profile. You can create additional profiles to customize the Copilot for Agents experience for different business requirements.
