Managing Missed Chats

What are Missed Chats?

A chat is considered missed if neither an operator nor a bot responds or the operator declines or misses the chat transfer from the chatbot. (The initial automated welcome message (trigger message) is not considered a reply.) The missed chats section comprises the list of visitors leaving without an operator's assistance. This category can also contain chats handled by an operator but conclude without the operator sending a message. 

To view the missed chats:
  1. In the SalesIQ Dashboard, click chats in the left panel. In the dropdown, choose Missed Chats. 

  1. You can view all the missed chats listed. On clicking a specific chat, you can view all the available information about the chat and the visitor. The Chat Missed tag will appear if the visitor or the bot did not attend the chat.

  1. If the bot attends the chat and attempts to transfer the chat to a human operator and fails, then the Bot Transfer Missed tag will appear. 

  1. You can view the details of the Chat in the Show Details section. Click the show details, and the Missed Chat details page will appear. You can find the chat routing rule details and the operators available when the Chat is initiated or missed.

Replying missed Chat

  1. You can reply to the missed chat via email if the visitor has provided their email address.

Note: The Reply via email option will only appear if the visitor has an email address. 
  1. Consider the visitor initiating the chat from any social media account like Facebook, WhatsApp business, Line or Telegram. Then, the Reply via Email button will appear in the bottom left of the chat window, and the operator can answer the visitor anytime. 

Tagging the chat

  1. To bulk tag the chats, select the chats and click on the Add tags.

  1. Notes - You can add notes for future reference. For returning visitors, you can view your own or other operator notes for the specific visitor.
