When you triage an email for an interaction case, you can spin off a regular case only if that regular case type is in the suggested cases list. For suggested cases that you define, the email bot can also perform automatic entity extraction of email contents, for example, city names, dates, or addresses, to case properties. You can also use suggested cases during intelligent email routing.

To learn about creating a case from email by using relevant training materials and a virtual Pega instance, see the Creating a case from an email challenge on Pega Academy.
