Leave a Message
Overview
Leave a message prompts the customer to enter a few basic personal details and type a message. This generates a worklist email record in Syntelate XA that an agent can reply to in the same way that they would reply to an email sent directly from the customer.
To create a leave a message form, you need to create a leave a message gateway. A leave a message gateway is a collection of settings for specifying the following:
- The database that the chat and leave a message will be connected to.
- The database tables and fields to read and write the customer's contact details from and to when they submit information in the leave a message form.
- The agent group who will handle the emails sent by the leave a message form.
And, there are other important settings that are crucial for managing how the leave a message form works. Those settings are specified in the web chat message gateway and in the web chat configuration. The order in which to fully set up a leave a message is:
- Create the leave a message gateway.
- Create the web chat message gateway.
- Configure the web chat in Web Chat Config.
