Can AI Agents use historical issues in responses?
Last updated: July 13, 2026
No, AI Agents cannot reference historical issues (past Messages, Internal Notes, or Issue/Account Fields). This is by design, since historical issues may contain customer-specific or proprietary information not meant to be shared with your broader customer base. In contrast, AI features that do access issue data are designed for internal workflows where a human reviews all content before any customer communications are sent.
AI Agents will only use resources that are configured as training data and that they have been given access to on their specific Agent configuration page.
