CRM (status, priority, tags)
Each conversation has editable CRM fields: status, priority, labels, and internal notes. They allow you to classify, prioritize, and document the management of each contact.
Steps
- 1Open a conversation in the Inbox.
- 2In the right (or top) panel, you'll see the CRM fields: Status, Priority, Labels.
- 3Change the Status: new / in progress / resolved / archived (or your account's custom values).
- 4Assign a Priority: low / medium / high / urgent.
- 5Add Labels: click the labels field and select from the list or type a new one.
- 6Add internal notes: text visible only to the team, not to the contact.
- 7Changes are saved automatically.
Reference
- Status
- State of the support process. Useful for support workflows: new → in progress → resolved.
- Priority
- Urgency level. Affects visual order in filtered views (doesn't change the default Inbox order).
- Labels
- Flexible categories: «hot lead», «payment pending», «vip», etc. See per-label statistics in the Labels section.
- Internal notes
- Notes only visible to the team. Not sent to the contact. Useful for context and agent handoffs.
- CRM filters
- In the inbox you can filter conversations by any CRM field.
Common errors
- Status change not persisting
- Check your connection. Changes require server confirmation.
- Label created but not appearing in filters
- New labels may take a few seconds to be indexed. Reload the Inbox.
