Converting Chat Conversation into Activity History

We can convert a complete chat conversation into activity history using a flow. Each time a chat conversation starts, a chat session object record is created with the status field set to “open.”

When the conversation is closed from the chat console, the chat session record’s status field will be updated to “closed.”

 

Note: There are multiple ways to close a chat session:

1. Manually closing the chat session by the user.

2. Automatically closing the chat session when a new message is received, and the time difference between the new message and the last message is more than the session time defined in the ValueText Setup page (Step 1).

3. Closing the session using scheduled jobs after a certain time if there is no reply from the customer.
