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.

In Commerce you can find everything about your products and orders.

Orders
You will see all your orders that have come to you using your linked accounts here.

Products

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.

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.

In Assistants, you can see all the AI assistants you currently use in your organization. Click the selected AI assistant to see the details.

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.

In Channels you can see all the channels you have linked to your organization.
