Agent Inbox agent-inbox

Agents will field live chats within the Agent Inbox. In addition to the active conversations, they can see past conversations, visitor information, and more.

Availability Toggle availability-toggle

On the upper-right side of the Agent Inbox screen, you have the option to set your status as available or unavailable.

This will override the live chat availability you established in Agent Settings. The status will remain until either you switch it back, or to the next block of time in your availability.
NOTE
Setting your status to unavailable will not affect any active chats.
