Inbox (WEB)
Ignite’s Inbox displays all interactions currently handled by the employee, ringing the employee, drafts, as well as failed send and autoreply items belonging to the employee.
When there is an active interaction or draft in the Inbox, a red badge appears over the Inbox icon, indicating how many interactions and drafts there are in the Inbox.
When you select an interaction in Inbox, in addition to the handling options, you can quickly access the case details, notes, calls, all the participants of the case, other cases from the same customer, and URLs by using the corresponding tabs. This saves time when you are interacting with a customer. For more information about these tabs, see the "Cases (WEB)".
An agent can view any call’s variable values that contain a URL under a separate tab, URLs. The URLs tab consists of a drop-down with all the variables and their associated value (URL). By default, the first URL is displayed in the frame. To open the URL in a new window, click Open.
Additionally, the Inbox displays current real time agent handling statistics. For more information, see "Viewing agent handling statistics (WEB)".
