Contact & Conversation Information
Every conversation has two tabs as the customer information: Tab Contact and Tab Conversation. Together, these tabs provide a full view of the customer and the ongoing interaction.
- Tab Contact: Displays details about the customer's profile and persistent attributes.
- Tab Conversation: Displays details specific to the current conversation, including context, attributes, and session information.
Below, each tab is explained in detail to help agents understand the information they contain and how to use it effectively.
