Overview

This article describes the Luma transactions and the tenant subscription information which includes Entitlement details, Transaction History Log, and Refill History. This section helps the tenant administrator view subscription information, when to renew the subscription, how many transactions are left, and the transactions log. All this information gives the Administrator transparency into their usage of Luma.

Luma Transactions

Luma transactions include conversation transactions and automated workflow transactions. As a tenant administrator in skills builder, you can view the number of transactions that are processed through Luma since the contract start date. As a result, you can ensure compliance with license agreements and purchase more transactions if necessary.

The following section describes rules that define conversation transactions and automated workflow transactions.:

Conversation Transaction Rules

When Luma has a conversation with a user through a skill or FAQ there is a point of fulfillment. That fulfillment creates a conversation transaction which is the billable or licensable entity. Organizations buy transactions based on their need and use them up over time.

The following scenarios create a conversation transaction:

• A user completing a custom skill conversation and receiving a text response or calling a Web service, Email Fulfillment.
• A user completing an ITSM Skill conversation such as “view my tickets”, “show me the backlog report” or “unassigned tickets”.
• A user-initiated response to a Luma notification or follow-up which executes a Skill.
• Pre-Conversation Action that executes user prompts and flow goes for the user responses other than Continue/Exit, the transaction is counted. 
• Simple Skill Text Fulfillment 

What will not be considered as a conversation transaction: 

• Leaving a Skill conversation prior to fulfillment (previously Action) being called. This includes if a user is using an abort word such as “exit”, or the user sitting idle, or not responding before the session timeout.
• Using the Test Bot feature within the Skills Builder Interface.
• Using System Skills such as the Welcome Skill, Registration Skill, or Fallback Skill.
• Triggering the Transfer to Agent Skill to chat with a live support team member.
• An external system using the Luma API to send a notification to a user through Luma. Note: user-initiated skills executed as their response to the follow-up, are counted as billable skill transactions.
• An automated follow-up sent to a user through Luma. Note: user-initiated skills executed as their response to the follow-up are counted as billable skill transactions.
• A pre-conversation action that does not execute an external web service call after prompting the user. For example, a knowledge article is displayed to the user and then asked, "if the article resolves their request". They respond that no it does not resolve their issue and the skill conversation continues.
• Using “small talk” phrases such as “good morning”, “thank you”, and “I like you”.
• Skills executed on a Staging (non-production) Luma environment.
• A Pre-Conversation Action that executes user prompts and user responds to the prompts which are not expected for the user response options defined. These scenarios are considered as aborted skill category. 
• An FAQ being used to answer a user's question. FAQ is currently in Beta and at this time does not use conversation transactions.

Automated Workflow Transaction Rules

Automated workflows are licensed by tenant or customer. Each execution of a workflow is considered as one transaction. These automated workflow transactions are in addition to conversation transactions. If a Luma skill is fulfilled by an Automated Workflow, two transactions are involved - a conversation transaction and an automated workflow transaction.

The following scenarios create an automated workflow transaction:

• Invocation of an automation workflow at any place in (as the fulfillment) the process of skill execution.

What will not be considered as an automated workflow transaction: 

• Automation workflows executed on a Staging (non-production) Luma environment.

Luma Usage Alerts

When Auto-refill is Enabled:

When Auto-refill option is enabled, usage alerts are sent to the technical and billing contacts via email at various stages, specifically when the usage of transaction approaches to 75%, 85%, and 95%. Alert is also sent when the contract approaches its due date. These are common for Automated transactions and Conversation Transactions.

If the tenant enables the automatic refill of the transactions, refill is done automatically at 95% of utilization of the existing transactions usage.

When Auto-refill is not Enabled:

If Auto-refill option is not enabled, after 100% usage of transactions Bot is disabled. Customer is required to contact the Serviceaide support or sales to refill Luma transactions.
