Shared by Sonia • March 30, 2022

Why was this change made?

The old version did not support exporting stats related to our new product Surveys as well as Product Tours and Series. With this new version, workspaces can export the performance of outbound messages, bots, and surveys!

What does this mean for me?

Prevent duplicating your team’s efforts with continuous conversations 🔁

Shared by Mary • February 28, 2022

A new feature in messenger settings will prevent your customers from starting a new conversation if they already have one open. This change makes conversations more of a continuous thread, preventing customers from reaching out to your team multiple times, which saves your team time and effort. This feature is available on web and mobile.

Articles

Shared by LeighAnne • February 23, 2022

With our latest release to Articles, you can now save a draft version of a published article and view past versions of an Article. With drafts of a published article, you can make necessary updates and share them for review without needing to unpublish an Article. You can also view previous versions of an Article, who made the update, and when the update was made to help with internal change management.

Bots

Create paths in bots based on conditions

Shared by LeighAnne • February 15, 2022

In Resolution Bot and Custom Bot you can now create paths based on conditions in addition to quick reply buttons. Conditional paths allow you to create more efficient bots, rather than creating multiple yet similar bots with different targeting. Your customers are also able to receive an answer faster, without needing to complete validation paths prior to being served an answer.
