Consumer Non-Responsive - Smart Control with Automatic Messages [Launching Soon]

We're pleased to introduce Smart Controls for Consumer Non-Responsive Auto Messages, which enhance our automated messaging capabilities by intelligently handling customer interactions.

Enhancement Highlights

Multiple Auto Messages: Brands can now configure multiple automatic messages for distinct customer touchpoints. For Consumer Non-Responsive, you have the flexibility to craft specific messages tailored to each situation.

Customized Frequency: Tailor your customer experience further by setting the frequency of automatic messages. Define when and how often customers receive these messages, ensuring they are timely and relevant.

  • Enhanced Customer Engagement: Maintain active communication by dynamically adjusting message delivery based on customer responsiveness.
  • Efficient Customer Support: Automate follow-ups with precision, improving responsiveness and supporting efficient issue resolution.
  • Personalized Customer Experience: Deliver messages that resonate with customers' interaction patterns, enhancing satisfaction and loyalty.

Conversation Assist

Features

Report Center

Features

 New Report Center APIs

We are pleased to announce the launch of the new Report Center APIs. These APIs enable brands to export aggregated metrics across various dimensions from the Report Center, providing a comprehensive overview of the brand’s metrics at different levels. We offer two APIs:

1. Aggregated Metrics API: This API allows users to analyze aggregated metrics across Report center available dimensions

2. Conversation List API: This API enables users to analyze the metrics further by drilling down to the conversation level.

Any metrics and dimensions displayed in the Report Center UI will also be accessible through the API.

On top of that, the API centralized the capabilities of various existing APIs and beyond.

Key Features of the Report Center APIs:

  • Historical Data Retrieval: The APIs can retrieve historical data of up to 13 months.
  • REST Architecture: The APIs are based on the REST architecture and support the HTTPS POST protocol.
  • JSON Format: All retrieved data is returned in JSON format for easy integration and processing.
  • Authorization Method: Supports OAuth2 method and bearer token.
  • Filters: Users can filter data based on all dimensions 
  • Timezone: The default timezone is UTC, but users can choose their preferred time zone.
  • Aggregated level: The API response data is aggregated by all available dimensions, grouped by the dimension order selection. Which allows the user great flexibility 

Brands can use the APIs regardless of Report Center activation.

Please note: This is an early adopter version.

In addition to the new Report Center APIs, we are adding 10 metrics from Analytics Builder to Report Center. These metrics will be available in both the Report Center UI and the new APIs.

Analytics Builder Metrics added to Report Center:

Analytics Builder Original Name ➔  Report Center Metric Name:

  • Agent or Consumer Close Rate ➔ Agent or Consumer Close Rate
  • Agent Segments ➔ Total Agent Segment
  • Avg. No. Of Consumer Responses In Segment (Agent) ➔ Average Segment Consumer Response
  • Avg. No of Agent Responses In Segment (Agent) ➔ Average Segment Agent Response
  • Interactive Segments (Agent) ➔ Total Interactive Segment
  • Interactive Segments Rate (Agent) ➔ Interactive Segments Rate
  • No. of Conversations Closed by Agent ➔ Total Conversation Closed by Agent
  • No. of Conversations Closed by Consumer ➔ Total Conversation Closed by Consumer
  • No. of Conversations Closed by System ➔ Total Conversation Closed by System
  • Skill to Skill Transfers ➔Total Skill to Skill Transfer    

Important Note: The metrics between Report Center (UI and API) and Analytics Builder should not be compared due to differences in attribute times. In Report Center, data is displayed by conversation start time, while in Analytics Builder, it can be based on conversation start time, conversation close time, segment start time, or segment end time. Therefore, we do not recommend comparing data between the two tools.
