By marking the chats hosted by the robot and in the assigned list as unread, merchants can be reminded of which chats have not been responded to, making it easier for merchants to deal with unread chats later! Similarly, unread chats can also be marked as read. When there are many chats that need to be marked, merchants can also mark them in batches.

Each customer service representative can pin some of the conversations they are responsible for to the top, so that they can respond to key customer conversations in a timely manner. Administrators can pin other customer service representatives' conversations to the top.
Note: Ordinary members can only pin their conversations, while administrators can pin other members' conversations.
