b. Session state

New conversation messages are in robot-managed/unassigned state by default, which supports manual access by customer service members and automatic assignment of conversation messages to the member, meeting the needs of multi-person collaboration scenarios such as assigning conversations to other customer service roles.

Ended conversations can be viewed and returned to in the [Session Management].

c. Role-based access control

It supports the configuration of customer service functions and data permissions. Customer service staff can manage their own conversation messages, view the corresponding contact information, and set other customer service conversations to be invisible, thus isolating customer service conversation data, ensuring the privacy of customer service conversations and facilitating personal performance statistics.

d. Session archiving and quality inspection

After the conversation ends, you can view the conversation record, user ratings, and user feedback in [Customer-Session Management], which is convenient for supervisors to supervise, conduct chat quality inspections, and perform performance ratings. In addition, you can also "restart the chat" to restart the chat with the user.
