+Automatically Create Problem Record from Repeated Incident Patterns
+
+This automation detects recurring incidents based on their short descriptions and automatically creates a Problem record when a defined threshold is reached (e.g., 5 similar incidents in 7 days).
+
+Scenario
+
+Multiple users report incidents with similar descriptions, FOR EXAMPLE Email not sending or VPN connection failed.
+
+When the number of similar incidents exceeds the threshold within the lookback period:
+
+A Problem record is automatically created.
+
+All matching incidents are  linked to the Problem.
