Read a chat contact

The Chat Transcript panel contains chat conversations. The responses from the agent who handled the contact are on the right, and responses from the customer and any other agents involved in the conversation are on the left. The messages from each person in the conversation are a different color for up to four different participants. (If a conversation has five or more participants, the colors repeat.)

You might see “System User” as a participant. These messages are automatically generated by the chat program your organization uses and usually say things like, “Agent Jane Doe has joined the chat” or “Chat session closed at 10:36 AM.”

If you click a message, the corresponding icon in the Text Map panel is highlighted.

Prerequisites

  • Your organization imports chat contacts into Workforce Optimization via a supported integration.
  • You have the View Contacts permission.
