Picking chat requests out of queue

Pick behavior occurs in the following ways: First, agents can pick interactions out of queue and send them to the Inbox. When the interactions ring in the Inbox, agents can handle them. Second, agents can choose to pick and reply to an interaction. Choosing to pick and reply to an interaction sends the interaction to the agent's Inbox from where the agents can handle the interaction.

Chat interactions picked out of queue ring in the Inbox until the interaction is accepted. For more information on ringing behavior, see "Ringing states in Ignite".

Note:
  • Agents cannot pick or pick and reply to interactions from the queue if they are in Do Not Disturb.
  • Agents may only pick or pick and reply to interactions from the queue if they have the appropriate permissions.
