Create or modify a response template (formerly known as a templated snippet) to define a reusable message that can be copied to case or task forms or used in Agent Chat sessions to provide quick and consistent messages to users.

1. Navigate to System Definition > Response template configuration.
2. Click New or open a record.
3. Fill in the fields on the form.

   Table 1. Response template form

   Field	Description
   Name	Name of the response template.
   Short Name	Short description that identifies the response template when using chat in Agent Workspace. The short name is used with a quick command (/) to show the text from the template body of the response template while in chat. This feature provides a fast and consistent way to populate text while in chat. For example, the short name gm identifies the chat response template for a Good Morning greeting. Enter /gm in a chat window to show the text from this response template.
   Table	Name of the table that the response template is associated with. Note: If you are creating a response template for Agent Workspace chat, the associated table is the Interaction [interaction] table. For other response templates, the table must be an extension of the Task [task] table.
   Condition	Conditions under which the response template is made available for use. Note: The conditions available depend on the table you select. For chat response templates, specify the condition: [Type] [is] [Chat]
   Application	The application that created the response template.
   Group visibility	Indicates what groups have access to the response template. Adding groups filters who can view the response template. Note: Leaving this field blank makes the response template available to all groups.
   Template body	Text of the response template. Note: Rich text is not supported with response templates.
   Select variables	Variables that can be added to the template body. Note: The variables available depend on the table you select.

   The following GIF shows an example of an HR manager in the HR Service Delivery application creating a response template to escalate payroll discrepancy cases. The template is associated with the HR Payroll Case [sn_hr_core_case_payroll] table, and a condition is set to filter on cases that match the Payroll Discrepancy HR service. The template text is pasted into the body, and then a variable for the subject person is added to the salutation.
