Feature descriptions

List of chats

On the left you find the list of open conversations with users. On top you can search for user names within your current status folder. The shown list can be filtered by "Status", "Newest/SLA" and "Provider".

Status

The status is related to each conversation and can be:

  • Unread
  • Done
  • Unresolved
  • Waiting
  • All

A user sending a new message will receive the "Unread" status and remain in that state until someone changes it. When there's no status filter active, "Unread" messages will be shown by default.

Additionally to that, you can use the toggle switch to only show conversations that are assigned to you.

Chat window

On top of the Chat Window you can change the status of the conversation from Unresolved to Done and assign the conversation to yourself (if the conversation has not been assigned yet) by clicking the Assign to me button or assign the conversation to another team/agent by clicking on the orange agent-icon.

Further explanation of the Live Chat can be found under > Conversation Handling

User details view

On the right you see further information to the user. Here you can:

  • view further customer details using the Additional information section and
  • view Form Results (which have to be pre-defined)
