Limitations
This section describes limitations in Agent Home. We’re working to remove these limitations in future releases.
- Chat tickets appear as tickets only, without real-time conversation updates. Messaging will show the conversation status, latest comment, and typing indicator.
- To maximize performance, Agent Home has the following limits
for displaying tickets:
- 100 most-recently updated tickets assigned to you
- 100 most-recently updated tickets where you are included as a CC
- 100 most-recently updated tickets where you are listed as a follower
- Tickets updated since November 21, 2023, will appear in Agent Home. If you expect to see a ticket in Agent Home that has not been updated since November 21, you can update it and it will appear. In a similar fashion, if you are listed as a CC or follower on a ticket updated before November 21, you can remove yourself, update the ticket, then add yourself again. You need to do this only once.
- Chat and SMS tickets updated since September 30, 2024 are available in Agent Home. If you want to see a Chat or SMS ticket in Agent Home that hasn't been updated since September 30, you can update it and it will appear.
- For the latest message preview, if you send a reply to a messaging conversation, your message will not appear in the conversation preview. The latest message from the end user will appear.
- For live updates, updates from messaging conversations appear immediately in Agent Home. Updates to email and web tickets will appear the next time you navigate to the page or when you refresh the page.
- Calls made via Talk Partner Edition will not show the live conversation state while a call is ongoing.
- Outbound calls made via the console without a ticket associated may not show the live conversation state while a call is ongoing.
- Outbound transfers to an external number will continue to show the active call until the call leg is ended, even after the agent leaves the call.
