Chat is a popular channel that customers use to contact customer support. Customers can chat with customer service representatives (service representatives) when self-service options don't resolve their issues.
Dynamics 365 Customer Service provides first-party chat capabilities that help customer service representatives support customers. Chat transcripts from Copilot Studio or their peers and pre-conversation survey data transfer to live representatives to maintain full context of the customer issue as it moves between channels and people. They can help customers in the language of their choice with real-time translation, and escalate to voice and video if a visual demonstration and audio are needed to help customers. Features such as quick replies, whisper, barge, consult, and transfer help representatives collaborate with other customer service representatives and manage customer conversations efficiently.
A chat widget lets your customers connect with your customer service representatives and resolve their queries quickly.
You'll learn how to:
- Add a chat widget
- Configure agent display name
- Configure a pre-conversation survey
- Configure file attachment capability
- Embed chat widget in your website or portal
Note
The chat widget requires session storage and local storage to be functional in your customers’ browsers. Make sure to notify your customers to enable cookies in their browsers so these services can work properly.
