Crear un agente de soporte de IA

Build an AI support agent capable of answering customer questions, retrieving information, and performing actions using tools and function calling. This guide demonstrates how to create an intelligent assistant for customer support workflows.

Overview

Unlike a traditional chatbot, an AI support agent can reason about user requests, retrieve relevant information, and use external tools to complete tasks such as checking order status, creating support tickets, or searching a knowledge base.

In this guide, you'll create a simple support agent using NovaAI Agents.

Estimated time: 15–20 minutes

Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have:

• A NovaAI project

• API authentication configured

• Basic knowledge of Agents and Function Calling

• Access to the NovaAI Agents API
