Hi Dora,
 
It looks like you still need to get the Collaboration add-on in order to enable the Side conversations on your account. Please reach out to your Account Executive directly for this feature to be added to your account. Stay safe!

Hi, We are having an issue when using side conversations, one of our agents accidentally sent the conversation to a customer rather than the intended recipient, this was because their names were the same, and when the agent typed their name it the selected the customer email.

Is there a way to remove all of the emails to ensure the email has to be typed fully ?

Hi Joe, thanks for writing in here! 
 
If this is a customer in your support instance then there is no specific way yet in the side conversation functionality to exclusively remove end-users from the side conversation "To" when writing an email. It will search all email address or users' name if matches since users outside the organization can be sent a side conversation email. However, there is this option 'Finding and deleting users created by side conversations' if this will suffice for now. 
 
But you can post a product feedback here General Product Feedback topic in our community to engage with other users who have similar needs and discuss possible workarounds. Conversations with a high level of engagement ultimately get flagged for product managers to review when they go through roadmap planning. Thank you!

Hi Rasha Hassoun,
 
Thanks for reaching out! Can you clarify what steps are you referring to? Are you referrin to Activating Side-conversation to your account? Can you send a screenshot of your admin settings here:
 
  1. In Admin Center, click Workspaces in the sidebar, then select Agent tools > Side conversations.
  2. Select Turn on child tickets.
 
 
Cheers!
