Find a chat by person, channel, or agent and review its messages and recorded events.

When the inbox contains conversations across channels and agents, search and filters help you find a case without scanning the full list. Then review its history to understand the request and previous handling.

In this guide: Find a chat by person, channel, or agent and review its messages and recorded events.

Search for a conversation

Use the inbox search field to find chats by a contact or prospect name, or by a phone number available in Connect. Try one detail at a time and review the results before opening a thread.

If it does not appear, check that you are in the right view: a channel or status filter may exclude the conversation. Clear or adjust filters and search again.

Choose one or more criteria and select Apply to narrow the list.

Apply handling filters

Open the filter panel and choose available criteria such as agent, tag, channel, or category. You can combine them; for example, select WebChat and a support category to find that type of request. Select Apply to refresh the list.

Filters help find conversations and describe how they are handled. To look up someone in the CRM portfolio, use Contacts: not every chat is automatically a CRM record.

Review messages and events

Open the right result to read the full thread. In contact information, review recorded events to complement the messages with handling activity, such as when the chat started or handling changed.

Review the history before picking up a conversation so you do not repeat questions and can confirm what remains pending.

Events help reconstruct handling alongside the message history.
Practical example: A supervisor wants to review an agent\u2019s WebChat support conversations. They search for a customer\u2019s name or phone, filter by channel and category, open the result, and review messages and events before giving feedback.
Important: Available criteria and results depend on recorded data and the conversations your user can access.
