Fin is now streaming AI answers in the web Messenger!

This means customers don’t have to wait for the whole AI answer to generate before getting the support they need. Instead, Fin starts displaying a response the moment the first word comes in - reducing latency by 6 seconds on average!

What do you need to do? Absolutely nothing!

Fin's already on it 🫡

You can now direct conversations in workflows based on whether or not your team has the capacity to deal with them.

For example, if everyone within a team has a conversation assigned to them, you could direct Fin to automatically step in and help manage the workload.
​

This can be applied as a filter on the workflow trigger or can be used in a branch to split conversations.

We're excited to announce some significant improvements to our Reporting Navigation, streamlining the process of finding and managing your reports. Here are the key enhancements:

• All Reports: We've unified all pre-built and custom reports into a single, comprehensive "All Reports" section for more straightforward navigation
• My Reports: Now offering a filtered view of reports exclusively created by the logged-in user
• My Favorites: This feature lets you save any pre-built or custom report as a favorite, allowing quick access from the favorites section in the side navigation
• New Workspace Folders: We've made it easier for customers to quickly access the most popular pre-built support reports directly from the side navigation
• Create New Report Quick Action: You can now access the "Create a new Custom report" button directly from the side navigation using the '+' symbol

Personalize your Help Center more by creating a unique style for individual collections.

For each collection, you'll be able to customize the icon colors, background colors, and utilize custom images to align your collections with your brand's identity.

Reduce duplicate conversations with updates that help you manage external participants and conversation history for emails.

Managing external participant replies

All new replies created (even from external participants like bcc'ed users) will be added to the same conversation thread.

Additionally, when external participants reply, teammates can add them as participants or ignore them thereby not changing the overall list of participants associated with a conversation.

When teammates have added someone as a participant, the reply will continue being tagged with an option to edit participants.
​

Manage conversation history

Admins now have the ability to manage conversation history by visiting Settings > Email > Other settings > Remove conversation history from message threads.

When this setting is ON:

• Teammates will not be able to see conversation history in the composer.
• End users will not see historical context that gets added to the reply.

When this setting is OFF:

• Teammates will be able to see conversation history in the composer. They can delete the history for every reply they draft and send.
• End users will also be able to see the historical context of a teammate's reply, which will depend on whether the teammate has chosen to retain or delete it.
