          Inactivate a Messaging Session

          Inactivate a Messaging Session

          When an unresolved conversation has gone idle for a certain period of time, mark it Inactive so that you can accept an incoming messaging session.

          User Permissions Needed
          To send and receive messages in Enhanced Chat:

          Enhanced Chat User permission set license

          AND

          Enhanced Chat Rep user permission

          To send and receive messages in enhanced Messaging channels: Messaging Agent

          If you don't see the option to inactivate a session, your admin may have hidden it in the Enhanced Conversation component settings.

          1. Click the dropdown next to End Chat.
          2. Select Customer Inactive.
            Customer Inactive option shown in End Chat menu

          If you mark a session inactive and the customer then sends a new message:

          • (Tab-based capacity) The session is routed to an available service rep.
          • (Status-based capacity) You can continue helping the customer.

          Inactive sessions are automatically ended after approximately 24 hours. In Enhanced Chat and Bring Your Own Channel, you can also set a time limit for customer inactivity after which a session’s status automatically updates to Inactive.
