How ZAI Works

ZAI has two main ways to interact with it:

1. The ZAI Pod (Chat Interface)

The ZAI Pod is embedded within ConnectWise service tickets. Open any ticket and you'll see the ZAI chat panel where you can look up information and run workflows:

What You Can Do Example
Look up a ticket "Look up ticket 12345"
List M365 users "List users in this tenant"
Check user licenses "What licenses does john@company.com have?"
View available licenses "Show all licenses"
Get tenant details "Show tenant configuration"
Find workflows "Search for onboarding workflows"
Run a workflow "Run the password reset workflow"

2. The ZAI Web Portal (Resourcing App)

The web portal is where you configure and manage ZAI. Log in to:

  • Create and manage workflows
  • Approve workflow changes and review submissions
  • View workflow execution history
  • Manage employees, pods, and clients
  • Configure actions and automations

Understanding Workflows

Workflows are pre-built automation sequences. When you need to perform an action like creating a user or resetting a password, you run a workflow.

Workflow States

State Description
Pending Waiting for approval or parameters
Running Currently executing
Completed Successfully finished
Failed Encountered an error

Context Awareness

When working within a ConnectWise ticket, ZAI automatically knows:

  • Client/Company - Which organization the ticket belongs to
  • M365 Tenant - The Microsoft 365 tenant for that client

This means you don't need to specify the tenant for every query.

Best Practices

Do's

  • Work within ticket context when possible
  • Review workflow parameters before approving
  • Check execution history to verify results
  • Use specific identifiers (email addresses) when querying

Don'ts

  • Don't approve workflows without checking parameters
  • Don't assume the chat can directly perform M365 changes (use workflows)
  • Don't ignore error messages

Getting Help

  • Workflow History - See past executions and their outcomes in the Resourcing App
  • Error Messages - Read detailed error information when workflows fail
  • Contact your system administrator for permission issues or configuration changes
