Agent Workspace: Keep content from internal note if changing to public reply
Data ultimo post: 23 mar 2022
Post Title:
Keep content from internal note if changing to public reply in agent workspace.
Feature Request Summary:
Keep any text that has been typed in an internal note in the response box if the reply is changed to a public reply, rather than having to copy and paste it.
Description/Use Cases:
We have our agents use internal notes for the drafting of replies. This worked fine prior to the migration to agent workspace, but now when drafting an email in an internal note, the content is lost when you switch to a public reply.
Business impact of limitation or missing feature:
Drafting replies in internal notes has been encouraged as standard process to prevent internal notes from accidentally being sent as public replies. It used to be a simple click to change from internal to public, but now it is necessary to copy and paste. This opens up room for errors if the copy and paste is incomplete, and is an extra step that wasn't necessary before.
Please allow for the entered content to transfer between different types of replies.

Hello everyone, we're excited to announce the release of draft mode in the composer to solve the pain point discussed in this thread. Please provide your feedback here: https://support.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/5706421005978-Draft-mode-in-composer-We-want-your-feedback-
Thanks!

+1 to this thread.
In my team, we used to enter text in private comments and then switch to public comments when completed before sending it to the customer.
The same applies to attachments. Now, even if we attach a file in private comments, if I switch to public comments and copy and paste the file, the file is not attached. It is very difficult to use.
Also, using the drop-down to switch between private and public comments is not good. (need More clicks).
I would like it to switch with one click like before.

Hi,
Our use-case is same as for the Trudy.
Answering also to questions from Amisha:
> Are there ever situations where you need to compose a messaging or chat response on internal notes? Would you like to carry drafts over from internal notes to messaging or chat composer as well? Or the only use case is to carry drafts to email composer?
I'd say it is true for the email composer only.
2. If we provide a setting to turn on carry over of drafts, would you prefer to select the channels it can carry the drafts over to? Example: You can select to carry over to only email or only messaging or both?
Currently we don't use Zendesk messaging, but I'd like to have a flexibility just in case.

+1 on this - we haven't migrated yet but this may be a big reason why

Hi Amisha Sharma! Thank you for soliciting feedback on this. One of our largest businesses came forward and advised that the clearing of comment when switching from internal note to public reply is causing inefficiencies in their workflow. They are a high volume contact center, so small inefficiencies can greatly impact their metrics.
I asked them to summarize and they provided the following:
We typically write our emails in the internal notes field, to ensure emails don’t get sent uncompleted and then we move it to public reply. In the old version, the entire email, including attachments would “roll over” and we could just send. Now, we have to copy and paste it in the public reply area.
When they state 'new version', what they are referring to is that we recently upgraded them to Agent Workspace.
I can't speak to other channels, as this is an email-only business.
Please let us know if we can provide any additional details.

Thank you very much for these updates!
In response to your pinned comment from February 1st:
1. Ideally, we'd like this to apply across all channels. We encourage our agents to draft all messages internally before converting them to public reply.
2. To streamline the agent experience, we'd probably apply it across all channels.

Hey Dave Rooney - If you turn off the draft carry over setting, nothing would change for you, you'll be able to let each channel treat its own draft. If you turn on the setting, you will be able to choose if you want drafts to carry across all channels or only email or only messaging.

This is interesting. This is the first change in the new Agent Workspace that I've seen that seems like it might have an improvement to offer, although it conflicts with a lot of existing workflows. I absolutely value drafting a public reply in private, but I can also see value in doing both public and private updates at once. I wonder if there's a way to do both.

We only use this feature for email, and we wouldn't need the option to turn it on or off for individual channels. However, it's important to us that a "drafts" feature would allow the agent to choose after entering text to post as either an internal note or a public reply.

Hey Amisha Sharma
In relation to your pinned comment, and the functionality to come:
1. To us it makes sense making it available on all channel, to carry over drafts from private to public.
2. To us it would be all channels - however, having the option to select channels, would be neat.
