Livechats
The “Livechats” page provides an organized view of live chat interactions taking place across the sub-company. From this page, agents have access to real-time chat sessions and track conversation histories.
Each table row represents a different live chat information with the following columns: ID, Status, Tags, and Assignee.
“ID” indicates live chat identifier.
"Status" shows the current state of each ticket, with different colors indicating statuses like Open (blue), Resolved (green), Pending (yellow), and Overdue (red).
"Tags" may be used to categorize live chats by type or by the nature of the issue.
"Assignee" shows the name of the support agent handling the ticket.
