Dashboard Overview
Better understand how your Live Agent Engine dashboard is laid out and where you can find important information!
Overview
There are four major areas within the Live Agent Engine dashboard. All users have access to each of these sections:
- Profile Settings & Contacts 
- Inboxes & Labels 
- Conversation Viewer 
- Actions & Insights 

Profile Settings & Contacts
This section focuses on your profile settings and grants users access to existing contacts, canned responses, and macros. The following actions can be accessed within this section:
- Set Your Availability (Learn More) 
- Update Profile Settings (Learn More) 
- Change Appearance (Learn More) 
- Keyboard Shortcuts (Learn More) 
- Log Out 
- Switch Accounts (If Applicable) 
- View Contacts Library & Associated Tags 
- Add or Edit a Canned Response (Learn More)

Inboxes & Labels
This section allows agents to switch companies and show filtered inbox views. The following actions can be accessed within this section:
- Switch Accounts (If Applicable) 
- Filter to show only conversations with a specific label (Learn More) 
- Filter to show any open conversation you were mentioned in (whether assigned to you or not) 
- Filter to show 'All Conversations' 
When you first open the Live Agent Engine dashboard, we highly recommend selecting the 'All Conversations' view. This way, you are not missing assigned conversations by limiting your view.
Conversation Viewer
This section is where agents can view, respond to, and resolve escalated chats. The following actions can be accessed within this section:
- Resolve a Conversation 
- Reply to a Conversation (Learn More) 
- Sent Private Chats (Learn More) 
- Mute a User (Learn More) 
- Send Chat Transcript (Learn More) 
Conversation Sections
There are three distinct conversation buckets within the Conversation Viewer section:

The "Mine" column is specifically designed for agents to easily access their unresolved assigned escalated conversations. While the "All" column allows any agent to view all conversations, regardless of their assignment status, the "Mine" section streamlines the process by displaying only the conversations assigned to you. This feature aids in efficient conversation management and swift response to crucial discussions.
Once the conversation is marked 'resolved', it will be removed from the 'Mine" section. Agents can always view resolved conversations by adjusting the filters (Learn More).
At the end of every shift, we recommend that no conversations are residing in your 'Mine' column.
The 'All' column is where all conversations live within your Live Agent Engine Dashboard. In this section, any agent can view current and previous conversations that were had either with an agent or the virtual assistant. New conversations and user messages will populate this section in real time.
The default filter for this section shows all 'Open' conversations; however, agents can adjust the filters to show 'All' or 'Resolved' as well. Learn more about the filters here.
The 'Unassigned' section is where any unassigned conversation resides. All agents can view any conversation (whether assigned or not) within the 'All' column; however, this section filters out all other conversations to better highlight these unassigned conversations. Conversations can be added to this section in certain scenarios:
- An agent manually changes the 'Assigned Agent' to 'None' 
- Your company opted out of auto-assigning new escalated conversations 
Filter & Sort Conversations
Agents have two options when it comes to customizing their view within this section:

Use the conversation sort function to quickly sort by status and reorder by certain actions:
- Click the 'Sort' icon (up and down arrow). 
- Use the two drop-downs to select your categories: - Status: Selections we recommend are Open, All, and Resolved - When you filter by status, it will mark your chosen status sort next to the inbox title (the example above shows my selection 'All') 
 
- Order By: Selections include the Last Activity, Created at, Priority, Pending Response 
 

Use the conversation filter to help cut through the chat clutter!
- Click the 'Filter' icon. 
- Use the drop-downs to update your current filters. Add or remove lines of filters as needed. 
- Hit 'Apply Filters' once done. 
- To revert to the original filtered view, select the red 'clear filters' button.
