Handling a Conversation

Read the full history, see what the AI said, and start helping the customer.

When you open a conversation, the main area loads the complete interaction history — including what the AI agent said before escalation and messages from any other human agents involved.

Prerequisites

  • You must have the Cc Agent, CC Admin, or CC Supervisor role.
  • The conversation must be assigned to you or you must be invited as a participant.

Chat Header

At the top of every open conversation, you'll see:

  • Customer name and avatar
  • Online status — a colored dot (online, away, or offline)
  • Participant avatars — profile pictures of everyone in the conversation

Reading the Message History

Messages appear in chronological order with:

  • Day separators — divide the conversation by date (e.g., "Today", "Yesterday")
  • Timestamps — next to each message
  • Sender labels — AI agent messages show the agent's name, so you can tell what the AI said vs. what a human wrote
  • Whisper labels — private messages are marked with an eye-off icon and "Whisper message"

Thinking Indicator

When an AI agent is composing a response, a "Thinking…" or "Processing…" indicator appears at the bottom of the chat. Wait for it to finish before replying, to avoid talking over the AI.

Copying a Message

  1. Hover over any message.
  2. Click the copy icon that appears.
  3. The message text is copied to your clipboard.

How Conversations Arrive

Conversations appear in your list when:

  • An AI agent escalates a conversation that needs human help
  • An administrator or the routing system assigns one to you
  • Another agent invites you as a collaborator

Escalation and assignment updates happen in real time.
