FAQ's:

Here are some commonly asked questions regardign Inbox:

How long are my chats retained?

Can I assign multiple statuses to a single chat?

No, each chat can only have one active status at a time. You can update it as the conversation progresses.

Is it possible to automate assigning statuses based on user actions?

Currently, status assignment is manual. Automation may require integration with custom workflows or external tools.

What’s the difference between “Reviewed” and “Closed” status?

"Reviewed" means the chat has been looked into but may require follow-up. "Closed" means the conversation is considered complete.

How many custom statuses can I create?

There's no hard limit, but for clarity and performance, it's best to keep your list concise and meaningful.

Can chats be reassigned from one agent to another?

Yes, agents with lead reassign permission can reallocate chats to different team members.

What happens if no agent is assigned to a chat?

Unassigned chats remain visible in the inbox but may be missed without proper filters or notifications set up.

Can I export chats with filters applied (e.g., only "Closed" chats)?

Yes, use the filter to view specific chats, then click the export button to download filtered data.

What are tags used for, and can they be customized?

Tags are used to categorize chats by topic, urgency, department, etc. You can customize and apply them as needed.

What’s the difference between Contacts and Leads?

In BotPenguin, Contacts are users who’ve provided their information, whereas Leads may refer more broadly to potential customers in your funnel.

What is the purpose of creating groups under Contacts?

Groups help you segment leads for targeted communication or follow-ups. You can assign leads based on filters like location, behavior, or tag.
