Add "Assign to agent" Action & "Live Agent Notification" Action
With these two actions, you can easily assign the conversation to your team members, and also send notification to them(support mobile apps, intercom, jivochat,slack, drift, front etc)
You can check our live chat settings in each channel.
By default, if the conversation isn't assigned to any agent, then it will send notification to all the team members.
Whoever replies first will get assigned conversation.
Add live chat auto pause time settings in the flow settings
Now you can set up your own pause automation time in the flow settings.
By default, it's 30 mins. Also for the live chat integration, once the agent reply, it will pause the automation, and also use this default time. Image 2022-07-22 at 2.43.38 pm.jpg61.74 KB
Add min_score and fallback_to in dialogflow dynamic response json
if min_score is set, then it will check the min_score with confidence score.
if confidence_score < min_score, then it will not process the content. if the fallback_to is set, then it will process fallback_to (similar to goto, can use node_ns, sub_flow_ns, or node name), otherwise, do nothing
Line Channel: use replyToken for the first message sent
This is an update about the Line channel.
Thanks to the suggestion from Winho!!
Before the update, we were using "push" to send all the message. Winho mentioned that this can cost their "push message" quota and suggested we can send message by using the replyToken, which means that, using "reply" instead of "push". This can save a lot consumption of "push message" to their Line account.
Now the system will use the replyToken to send the first message. For example, a user sends "hi". If you have 2 messages to respond to this greeting. The first one will be sent using "reply" and the second one (all the rest) using "push".
This can somehow save your "push" messages amount in your Line account.

WhatsApp Notification:
Select a sender from the "From Phone Number" list. A valid sender must have a WhatsApp bot connected to it in the same workspace.

Telegram Notification:
The same applies to Telegram notification. You must have a Telegram chatbot in the same workspace to send out a Telegram notification. And the receiver must be an existing bot user.
You can search a receiver in the Telegram bot by their Telegram User Id, User Ns, Email or Phone Number.
Manage One-time Link for Templates (both in workspace & via API)
This is an update about Templates - One-time Link.
Before the update, the one-time link for a template is actually the same as a permanent shared link. The difference is the template turns from "shared" to "private" after one installation.
Now you can manage different one-time links for each sharing and you are able to track the status of the installation. Available status: "Available", "Installed" and "Expired".
You can manage your one-time link either: - manually in your workspace or - automatically via APIs
For manual management, on your dashboard, go "My Contents" - "My Bot Templates", select a template and the drop-down menu will show like this:
Click on 4 in the above screenshot to get the "Template Ns", the id of this template for API usage. Click on 5 in the above screenshot to generate a one-time link for this template:
Edit expiration duration and click "Generate New Link". This link will be added to the list and the status will be "Available" in the beginning. When the link is used and the template is installed, the status changes to "Installed". If the template is not installed within the duration, the status goes to "Expired".
Wherever you need to display a media, a "Select Media" window will show.
Under the "Upload Your File" tag, you can select media from your computer and all those uploaded media go to the "Library" tag. So that from now on you can pick the media in the library instead of uploading it again.
UChat just add a new feature to allow you to delete media in the library. Simply hover over the media and a red delete button will show, click on the button to remove this media from the library.
Switch Bot/Flow Feature available in All channels now!
Yesterday we added a new feature about switching bot/flow between different phone numbers in WhatsApp, SMS and Voice.
The feature is now available for all channels! But there is a difference to mention:
WhatsApp, SMS and Voice channel are using users' phone numbers for user_id (user identification), so there is no conflict when you switch a bunch of users from an old number to another phone number.
However, channels like Facebook are using user_id to identify users and each user_id is unique only under this page, it's not unique in the whole Facebook. If the user is switched from one Facebook page to another Facebook page carrying the old page user_id, conflicts might appear.
Therefore, all bot users will be removed to avoid conflicts.
UNLINK:
when you unlink a bot (not in WhatsApp, SMS or Voice), your bot users are kept in the flow.
LINK:
when you link a bot (not in WhatsApp, SMS or Voice), all bot users in the flow are removed.
Switch Bot/Flow between Phone Numbers (WhatsApp, SMS & Voice)
Before the update, if you need to move a flow from no/one number to another, you will need to publish the old flow to be a template then install it to the new numbers. In that way, bot users in the old flow are not moved to the new number. Only the flow is moved.
Now you can easily switch flow between numbers, all bot users are moved together with the flow and settings.
Simply, click on the unlink button to disconnect the flow with the number and click on link button, then choose a standalone flow to link the flow with the number:
External Request Update: send file as parameter in API calls

2. Dynamic Source invalid in One Time Url - 2. Web Forms - Inputs
When you go setting the inputs of web forms in a one-time URL, dynamic source won't work here.
3. the drop-down list only loaded when first click "edit action"
In the chatbot flow, when you create a new action of the Mini-App, and first click "Edit Action", the system will do an external request and generate the drop-down list based on the current value in the fields. If you change the parameter e.g. the value in Auth inputs, the drop-down list won't be re-fresh, please delete the action and create a new one.
Before the update, you can duplicate only one step at a time. Now you can select multiple steps and duplicate them.
Please note that,
- after copying multiple steps, you can only paste once. copy again for another paste - where can I paste the steps? (1) to the same bot/flow (2) to the different bot/flow but the same channel (associate custom fields will be created automatically) (3) to different channels (unsupported features will be removed)
- subflow template supported (installed subflow goes to a folder) - template configuration added: viewable, editable, version number (only for subflow template) - install template from different channel - interface changed

We add a new way for you to auto cleanup bot users. You can cleanup bot user when reached bot user limit or time interval.
For example, set up the cleanup to 90 days and the bot will automatically remove users who haven't interacted with your bot over 90 days.
These cleanup conditions are checked once per day, not in real-time.
Alternatively, for more customized cleanup conditions, we suggest you use a datetime based trigger to do a regular check and in the workflow, setup your own condition like only clean guest user or user without contact information, etc.
Now each message sent by the bot has a little drop-down button, click on it to "Resend Message" or navigate to the step to edit the step, do your improvement in a more convenient way.
When you check error log, you can see which step in which subflow went wrong, before the update, you will need to navigate to the step yourself. Now by simply click on the step name, you will jump to the step right away.
When you click on the "Response Headers", a list of hearer information will show. Now the hearer information is all clickable. For example, in the screenshot below, you can click on the "Response-Code: 200" to get its path "$H['Response-Code'] and save the value "200" to a variable for later usage.
