# Executive Summary

> Generate high-level executive summaries for stakeholders and leadership

## Quick start

  <Step title="Add to reporting workflow">
    Add the action to a scheduled workflow that gathers ticket data for executive reporting.

  <Step title="Configure reporting period">
    Set up filters to collect tickets from your desired time period (weekly, monthly, quarterly).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Define focus areas">
    Use custom instructions to specify what aspects to highlight: service quality, response times, recurring issues, etc.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add delivery action">
    Use "Notify Internal Team" to email the summary to executives or "Add Ticket Note" to save for review.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## How it works

This action analyzes ticket data to create executive-level insights:

1. **Analyzes ticket patterns** - Reviews ticket volume, types, and resolution trends
2. **Identifies key metrics** - Highlights important KPIs like response times and customer satisfaction
3. **Summarizes business impact** - Translates technical issues into business language
4. **Provides recommendations** - Suggests actionable next steps based on findings
5. **Formats for executives** - Creates clear, concise summaries appropriate for leadership consumption

## Setup

**Data to analyze**: Works with tickets from your workflow, typically from a "Find Entities" action that gathers tickets for a specific time period.

**Custom instructions (optional)**: Guide the summary focus. For example: "Highlight service quality trends, major incidents, and customer satisfaction metrics for the past month."

**Report format (optional)**: Specify whether you want detailed analysis or high-level overview format.

## What you get

After running, you'll have executive-ready summaries that highlight key business metrics, service delivery insights, and actionable recommendations formatted for leadership consumption.
