Display message or sync data when a Live Chat is closed

When a customer initiates a live chat, an inbox agent takes on the task of resolving the query. Once the agent has resolved the query, they mark the chat as Resolved. This triggers the execution of the node connected to the ticket closed in the raise ticket node, which is followed by the other nodes connected to it.

After a chat has ended, you may want to perform actions like updating a database, calling an API, sending customer details to the CSM, or displaying promotional messages or products. However, you cannot connect the ticket closed part of the raise ticket node to both options simultaneously. In this case, you can use an event to identify the ticket closed and perform background actions on a different flow.

If the CSAT setting is enabled, the system records the customer feedback on the agent before closing the chat.

To configure the system to automatically trigger an event when agents resolve a live chat, you need to manually enable it from the event hub and use it in the flows.

Step 1: Attach nodes to ticket closed​

  1. To attach nodes to ticket closed, connect the Raise ticket > Ticket closed with the nodes you want to execute. This will get triggered after the ticket is closed.

    info
    • This step is recommended but not mandatory, it is required to make sure that the flow is completed and the user is intimidated that the ticket is closed.
    • You can also add options in this flow that connects to other flows to improve your user experience.

Step 2: Activate ticket-closed event​

To identify that the inbox agent has closed a ticket you must enable Ticket closed event. Follow these steps:

  1. Go to Studio > Events > Inbox and search for ticket-closed.
  2. Click the three dots icon and select Activate to activate the event.

Step 3: Trigger flows after a ticket is resolved​

You can design flows that can be triggered when Ticket closed event is identified. Follow these steps:

  1. Create a new flow.
  2. By clicking Start node you can set when the flow gets triggered. Set it to Event and select the value as ticket-closed.
  3. To provide a personalized response from the bot when a ticket is closed, add nodes to the flow that are designed to execute specific tasks. The flow will automatically run whenever a ticket is closed.

Use-cases of ticket-closed event​

A few examples of the flows that can be run after the ticket is closed.

You can add one or more flows with start trigger as ticket-closed. All these flows will run simultaneously.

  3. Hit an API once the ticket is closed.
