Conversations is the live inbox under Operate. View and manage customer conversations in one place: thread list, chat, and details. Open Operate → Conversations in the project sidebar.

Layout

The page has three panes:
  1. Conversation history — searchable, filterable list with real-time updates (“New messages”).
  2. Active chat — full message history, takeover controls, and WhatsApp template actions when needed.
  3. Details aside — customer, handovers, summary, follow-ups, meetings, tickets, notifications, and WhatsApp broadcasts (toggleable on smaller screens).

Find a conversation

Use Search, then open filters: Empty states: No conversations yet or No conversations found. Adjust search or filters if the list is empty.

Work a conversation

1

Open a thread

Select a conversation from the list. Past sessions for the same customer appear when available.
2

Take over or return to AI

When AI is handling the chat, use Take over. When you are handling it, use Return to AI. Banners show whether AI, you, or another agent is handling the chat. If another agent has it, you can view messages but cannot reply.
3

Close when done

Use Close conversation and confirm. Closing ends the session for the customer.
After takeover, the banner shows you are handling the chat and you can reply. After Return to AI, the AI continues the conversation.

WhatsApp messaging window

On WhatsApp, free-form reply works only within 24 hours of the customer’s last message. When the window is closed, the UI shows Messaging window closed. Send an approved WhatsApp template to reopen the chat, or wait for the customer to message again. Template management: WhatsApp Templates.

Summary

Use Generate Summary or Regenerate Summary on the details aside to create a concise session summary for your team.

Details aside

From the selected conversation you can open linked customer context, active or last handover, follow-up actions, meetings, tickets, notifications, and WhatsApp broadcast history. Deep links support customer_profile_id and conversation_id query params.
Operate Conversations is the chat-style inbox (including Web voice in the channel filter). Put phone lines live under Inbounds and outbound dialing under Campaigns. Customer profiles under Customers unify chats and calls.

Live handovers

To work only conversations assigned to you for human help, set Assignment to My Handover. Metrics for handover volume and resolution time are on Handover (Handover Insights).
