The Inbox is where your team answers visitors. Chats from your website widget and from your connected channels all land here, alongside the chats Aura is handling.
The Inbox with the chat list, an open chat and visitor details

The Inbox: your lists on the left, the chat in the middle, the visitor on the right.

Your lists

The left panel sorts chats by what needs doing: Under Channels you’ll find the same chats by where they came from: Website, WhatsApp, Messenger, Telegram and Instagram. Channels you haven’t connected stay empty. Sort a list from Sort by, and filter chats by AI agent if you run more than one.

Pick up a chat

  1. Open Pending and click a chat to read it. You can see messages as they arrive, but you can’t reply yet.
  2. Click Accept chat (or Join room) to take it. It moves to Your inbox.
If Aura is handling a chat, joining it takes the chat over from Aura. Aura is assigned back once you close or leave the chat.
You can also Observe a chat to follow it without the visitor seeing you, and Stop observing when you’re done.

The chat

The middle panel is the conversation itself: the visitor’s messages, Aura’s and your team’s replies, and notes your team left (only your team sees those). At the top:
  • Assignee: who’s handling the chat, and teammates also on it.
  • Previous chat / Next chat to move through your list without going back to it.
  • Close: ends the chat as resolved. You can add a closing reason, which the visitor sees.
  • More actions: Transfer chat, Copy link and Show details.

About the visitor

The right panel tells you who you’re talking to. Switch views from the icons on its side:
  • Visitor details: the chat’s department, priority and tags; the visitor’s name, email and phone (you can edit them); and their session: current page, time on site, browser, OS, device, country and IP address.
  • Previous chats: this visitor’s past chats, resolved or open.
  • Chat notes: notes private to your team, like an order number or what’s been promised.
