Using Conversations
In Conversations you can find all conversations you had with your customers via all the channels you have connected to your account. The Conversations Inbox allows you to initiate a conversation with your customers or reply to customer-initiated messages.
We divide the Conversations into 5 categories:
Inbox
All new conversations land in your ‘Inbox’, which is visible to all your support agents. An agent just needs to pick a conversation and reply to it.
Yours
Conversations that are specifically assigned to you will be shown in Yours, until you close the conversation.
Open
Any agent can access all messages in Open to check which conversations are currently active. This enables collaboration among agents as they can quickly pick the conversations to handle from Open conversations.
Automated
All ongoing conversations between your chatbot(s) and customers will be shown here. An agent can always check to see if an intervention by the agent is required.
Closed
Here you will find all conversations that were closed either by one of your support agents or automatically closed by your chatbot.
TIP: After selecting a conversation, you can directly answer the customer, add templates, save contacts and much more.




TIP: You can use a text filter (Search chats) to find agents.

You can also use various sorts (e.g.sort by longest waiting) by clicking the three-dot button that’s next to the search text filter.

Labels
Labels are an easy way to classify and prioritize a conversation with a customer. Every business can create its own labels with which to manage and mark conversations.
For example, you could create a label named ‘Urgent’ for conversations that should be prioritized by your agents. Another example could be to define the department with a label (e.g. ‘Sales’).
1. Click the Conversations tab.
2. Open any conversation with a customer.
3. Click the arrow underneath the customer name at the top of your screen.
4. Select Labels from the menu.
You can always de-select a label by following the same steps and selecting the label again.

Agents
In Agents, you can see all the fellow agents in your organization using Conversations Inbox.
You can search agents with text filters or sort them by availability, last seen, or role.
Agents can be assigned to teams to efficiently distribute the work to the department. Agents who have administrator privileges have their own icon next to their name. This can be useful if you need to make system modifications, password resets, and more.


Teams
Teams are an easy and flexible way to organize your agents. Each team can be assigned an email address, so your team doesn’t miss out on important notifications.
Businesses use Teams to reflect the organization of larger customer support teams. For example, a company with specialists for certain topics can create a team to handle incoming customer questions better, by assigning a conversation to a dedicated team.
Or, businesses with customer support agents for different countries and languages can create a team to differentiate incoming customer questions by region or language.
In Team you can find detailed information about your team:
1. Overview information.
2. Agents assigned to the team.
3. Channels assigned to the team.
