Google Document Viewer

Google document viewer is a safer way for your agents to view files attached to tickets or chats. It allows agents to open files directly through their browsers, meaning they don't have to download these files to their PCs.

Google Document Viewer option can be activated in Configuration > Security > Settings > Allow Google Document Viewer. The Google Document Viewer supports the following extensions...

The "View" button availability for attachments in tickets

The view option is available only for the attachments of the following content-types: audio/* video/* image/* except svg So essentially you can "view" without first downloading the attachment all audio files, video files and image files with the exception of the SVG format which cannot be viewed directly.

To solve button

To solve button is a feature that we recommend using if you want to make sure that no customer is forgotten and everyone receives their reply as soon as possible. This function routes the tickets based on how long the ticket has been unanswered and based on the created SLA levels applied to the tickets. This way, the tickets from the customers that have been waiting for the answer from your support team the longest or the customers with an urgent issue, if defined by the SLA level, will be prior...

Chat/Call queue indicator

Your LiveAgent panel has the ability to indicate how many customers are waiting in the chat or call queue. This is displayed in the top-right corner of your panel.

In order to define the number of chats that agents can handle at the same time, navigate to Configuration --> Agents --> Edit any agent --> Settings (tab) --> Max chat ...

Pause feature

LiveAgent (https://www.liveagent.com/tour/live-chat-software/) offers an option for Agents (https://www.liveagent.com/features/agents/) and Admins to go into a Pause. It’s typically used to turn off receiving tickets, chats, and calls while being out of the office or away from the computer for a short time (for example lunch or a coffee break). Besides pausing yourself, administrators are also able to pause or logout their colleagues who might have forgotten to pause themselves. - How to p...

Auto pause

Whether going on a break or leaving the office for the day, sometimes agents (https://www.liveagent.com/features/agents/) can forget to click 'pause (https://support.liveagent.com/350128-Pause-feature)' in their agent panel or close the panel completely when leaving the computer. Since the system still counts them as active and includes them in the routing, this can lead to frequent "no answer" events, such as missed chats or calls. Live Agent brings a great solution to these accidents with its...
