Chat Operations

How do I assign chats to my roster in Parrot Desk?

Step-1: To assign chats to your roster, go to the Unassigned column and select the chat. The Unassigned column holds all the chats that have been handed over to the agent by the bot.

Note: Chats not selected by an agent even after 30 seconds will be removed from the unassigned roster. An alert message will be sent to the customer by the bot stating all agents are busy.

Step-2: Click ‘Yes’ to the question “Would you like to join this conversation” at the top of the conversation. This moves the chat from ‘Unassigned’ to your ‘Assigned’ roster.

Step-3: Access the live chats from your assigned roster and start conversing with the customer using the chat window.

How do I close a conversation after resolving the query?

Go to the top-right corner of the chat window and select “Leave Conversation” from the drop-down to close the conversation

Where can I access the previous queries closed by me?

Go to the History section in the left pane. All the chats that are resolved and marked closed by agents are listed here.

Where can I get the summary of the customer conversation?

ParrotGPT can generate a chat summary for you to get a gist of what the conversation was about. Click the Generate Chat Summary button on the right pane.

I don’t know the answer to this question. What should I do?

Step-1: Invoke @parrotGPT in the chat and let ParrotGPT’s generative AI give the best response. This can be used when you don’t know the answer or the answer is very basic in nature.

Step-2: If you want, you can edit the final response before sending it to the customer

How should I transfer the chat to my supervisor or a fellow agent?

Step-1: In case the customer is requesting escalation or if you want to transfer the chat for any reason to another agent, select “Change Agent” from the drop-down menu.

Step-2: Enter the details of the agent to whom you wish to transfer the chat or select them from the Smart Suggestions tab.

Step-3: After you click “Confirm”, a pop-up will come with the message “Transfer request submitted successfully”

Step-4: The chat will be moved to the “Escalated” queue of the agent to whom the chat is transferred.

Step-5: Until the other agent accepts the chat from their escalated queue, the chat will stay on your assigned queue, where you can continue engaging the customer.

Step-6: After the other agent accepts the conversation, it will disappear from your Assigned queue. The conversation will move from the Escalated queue to the Assigned queue for the other agent.

Note: The process is similar if another agent transfers a conversation to you. It will come into your escalated roster and you would have to accept or reject the conversation from there.
