The Inbox is the main view for human agents to see all tickets that need their attention. Tickets appear here when the AI is unsure how to proceed or when it’s been instructed to request human input. In many cases, the AI will continue handling the ticket after an agent provides approval or input. Screenshot of inbox view

Sections

The inbox is divided into two sections: My tickets and Unassigned tickets. You can collapse or expand these sections to see more or less tickets.

My tasks

This section shows all tickets assigned to you—for example, because you previously replied to the user in this ticket. Once you reply, the ticket disappears from your Inbox and only reappears when your input is needed again.

Unassigned tickets

Here you’ll see new tickets that haven’t been assigned yet and are available for you to pick up. You only see tickets relevant to you based on your assigned teams.

Sorting and filtering the inbox

By default, intelligent sorting is used to sort the tickets in the inbox. We use a combination of factors to determine the order of the tickets, including the time since the last activity on the ticket, the priority of the ticket, it’s status, and more. It’s designed to show you the tickets that are most likely to need your attention first. Screenshot of inbox sorting and filtering

Sorting options

  • Smart (default): We sort tickets based on the time since the last activity on the ticket, the priority of the ticket, it’s status, and more.
  • Waiting since: We sort tickets based on the time since the ticket was last waiting for your input.
  • Last activity: We sort tickets based on the time since the last activity on the ticket. This includes any changes to the ticket such as status changes, notes, and any AI activity.
  • Creation date: We sort tickets based on the creation date of the ticket.
  • Priority: We sort tickets based on the priority of the ticket.

Showing unread items

By default, your assigned task list will include all open tickets that are assigned to you including tickets that are don’t need your input anymore. If you want to see only the tickets that need your input, you can disable the Show unread items option from the filtering dropdown.

Responding to tickets

When a ticket lands in your Inbox, it means the AI needs your input to proceed. By default, new tickets show up in the assigned section of the inbox.
1

Monitor the unassigned queue

By default, new tickets show up in the assigned section of the inbox. Based on the sorting configured, tickets that need immediate attention will be at the top of the queue.
2

Review the ticket

Review the ticket details and the conversation to understand the customer’s request and the AI’s response.
3

Assign the ticket to yourself

Once you’re confident, you have enough information to proceed, you can assign the ticket to yourself. It will move the ticket to your tasks section. It will also be removed from other human agent’s inboxes.
You can use the keyboard shortcut A to quickly assign the ticket.
4

Respond to the ticket

The AI assistant may need you to either completely takeover the ticket, approve a draft response or action, or provide additional information.
5

Close the ticket

Once you’ve responded, the ticket will be removed from your Inbox and will return when the customer replies or when further action is needed. Once the issue is resolved, you can safely close the ticket.

Collaboration

Since the inbox is shared between all your team members, it’s important to collaborate with other human agents to ensure that tickets are handled efficiently and effectively. Screenshot of inbox collaboration

Seeing what other human agents are working on

When reviewing the unassigned queue, you can see what tickets are already being looked at by other human agents. This allows you to make sure you’re not working on the same ticket as another human agent.

Assigning a ticket to yourself

If you feel like you can help with a ticket, you can assign it to yourself. It will move the ticket to your tasks section. It will also be removed from other human agent’s inboxes. Screenshot of inbox collaboration

Collaborating with another human agent

If you need to collaborate with another human agent, you can add a note to the ticket or mention them in a note. This will notify them that the ticket is being worked on and they can help you out.

All tickets

If you need to view all your or other people’s tickets, go to All tickets.
