titleIntroduction

You can reduce the time that agents take to respond to chat messages by storing common chat messages that can be sent to customers as quick responses (predefined responses). Quick responses ensure that the messages sent by the agents are consistent and adhere to your business standards.  A Quick Responsebook is a group of quick response messages.

Note

An agent can modify a quick response to make the response more personalized for the conversation.

You can associate a Client client or an Agent Desktop with a Quick Responsebook.  The messages from a Quick Responsebook associated with a Client are available to all agents. The messages from a Quick Responsebook associated with an Agent Desktop are available to only the agents using that Agent Desktop.
