# Escalate a Connect Support conversation

If an escalation path is defined for a Connect Support conversation, you can use a shortcut to escalate a Connect Support conversation to a different queue.

## Before you begin

Define an escalation path for the queue, using the **Escalate to** field on the Chat Queue \[chat\_queue\] table. For more information, see [Administer Connect Support queues](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/servicenow-platform/connect/t_AdministerConnectSupportQueues.md).

## Procedure

1.  Open a Connect Support conversation.

2.  At the bottom of the conversation, click the menu icon \(\[Omitted image "IconMenu.png"\] Alt text: Menu icon\) to open the Connect actions menu.

3.  In the Connect actions menu, select **Escalate**.

    A confirmation dialog box appears.

4.  In the dialog box, click **Escalate**.

    The system automatically removes you from the conversation and the conversation enters the escalated queue.
