- Address of the current webpage
- Address of the webpage from where the customer was directed to your website
- Time spent by the customer on your website
- Time spent by the customer on the current page on your website

Enhancements in LiveVox U15 User Portal
This section describes the enhancements to existing features in the LiveVox U15 release.
Agent Chat
The Agent to Agent Chat checkbox on the Portal tab of the Client window is now renamed Supervisor to Agent Chat. This checkbox now indicates if a supervisor can initiate a chat with an agent. In addition, the Chat field is now added to the new UCaaS section on the Billing tab of the Client window to indicate if an agent can chat with another agent. This field also indicates if the chat channel is enabled.
Agent Monitoring
You can now individually enable or disable the call monitoring options (monitor, coach, or barge) on the monitor dashboard at the client level. To facilitate this enhancement, in the Settings tab of the Client window, the Agent Monitoring section is added. This section displays the following checkboxes, which are selected by default:
- Monitoring Enabled
- Coaching Enabled
- Barging In Enabled
The Start Monitor button on the Agents widget of the voice monitor dashboard appears only if any of these checkboxes are selected.
SMS Response Code
To improve tracking, a manual SMS response or an automated SMS response (excluding one generated through a campaign) to an inbound SMS is now sent from the short/long code associated with the inbound SMS (that is, the code to which your customer sent the SMS).
When the SMS module is used by a campaign, the SMS code configured in the module is used.
