Create Chat alertsLast updated on 03/22/2022
Use Chat alerts to automatically notify your team when customers send Chat messages. You can create alerts to let you know whenever a customer sends a Chat message, or set a schedule using Autoresponder hours.
Things to know
Before setting a Chat alert for Autoresponder messages, make sure you set a forwarding number and an outbound SMS number for Chat.
After you create a Chat alert, you can also edit and deactivate it later.
