Active Messages
The Active Messages section displays live chats that have been picked up by an agent and are currently in conversation with the user. This provides a dedicated workspace for agents to manage their ongoing chats.
Having all active chats in one place allows agents to focus on conversations they are currently engaged in without distractions. They can take over chatting with the user naturally once assigned a chat without changing tools or screens.
The agent/supervisor can see the Active Tab under Messages.
The agent/supervisor can start having Messages with the users from the Active tab. The agent/supervisor will be able to see only those chats which they are responding to.
The agent can reply by typing messages in the “Respond” Section. The agent can respond using the multiple options available.
Adding response from the FAQs added: The agent can search from the FAQs added in the Smart Response section and can reply to the user accordingly. The agent can directly search using the user query from the FAQs added by clicking on the vertical ellipsis and select Get Smart Responses.
Quick Reply: The agent can use the Quick Replies added and reply. The agent can select any of the replies, edit and send it out to the end user. You can select the add as a quick reply option on the text the end user send.
