# Customer success playbooks

Customer success agents can use playbooks to define planned and unplanned activities, success case tasks, and renewal processes.

Playbooks provide step-by-step guidance and include multiple stages and activities that must be included. Customer success agents can:

-   View the playbook stages and activities.
-   Select an activity and perform the work necessary to complete that activity.
-   Mark an activity as complete and move to the next activity or stage.
-   Complete the stages and activities and close the playbook.

The following playbooks are available:
