When you set up Live Agent for your Organization, you can [create your Project Inbox for Live Agent](/live-agent/getting-started/live-agent-setup/live-agent-setup-inbox).

## Troubleshooting

If the **Set up Live Agent** button is disabled, it could be for the following reasons:

* You do not have the Cognigy Live Agent feature enabled.
* You do not have permissions to create a Live Agent account.
* There is already a Live Agent account created for your organization.

**Example 1**

Cognigy Live Agent feature is not enabled.
