Create Contacts

The system supports three ways to create contacts:

System Auto Create Contacts

Info

Automatically creating contacts can enable conversations and contacts to be automatically associated, and save Agents from expending more energy on manually creating Contacts.

...

The contact will be named as the social ID or name.

Manual Create Contacts

Info

In addition to being automatically created and generated according to rules, contacts can also be manually created by administrators as needed.

Prerequisites

A valid system admin account.

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Go to your system CloudCX installation domain, and log in with the admin account.

  2. From the left navigation menu, go to Contact.

  3. Click New button to create a new contact.

...

Info
  • If you do not input a contact ID for the new contact, the system will automatically create a contact ID for the new contact. The contact ID is a unique identifier and can not be changed.

  • The default Lead stage for manually created contacts is Contact.

Import Contacts

In some cases, administrators need to import numerous contacts into the system in batches. At this time, manually compiling one by one is obviously not convenient enough. At this time, importing contacts in batches can be conveniently operated. You can find more details from https://cloudfon.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CX/pages/340857220/Import+Contacts?atl_f=content-tree.

Manage Contacts

Customize table

Info

A contact in the system has about 40 system fields by default, and also supports custom fields. However, the default display area on the list page is limited. Through Customize table, administrators can conveniently set which fields need to be displayed on the list page.

  1. Click Customize Table to open the table list.

  2. Check the fields you want to show in the table from the Field not shown in table list.

  3. The selected field will be moved to the Fields visible in table list, then close the table list.

  4. The system will automatically refresh the contact table.

...

Bulk Update Contacts

Info

In some cases, administrators need to conveniently perform batch operations on contacts, such as batch assigning contacts to a certain person or batch tagging contacts.

...

If you do not select any contacts before performing a batch operation, the system defaults to selecting all contacts for the batch operation.

Merge Contacts(Coming soon)

When a user accesses a conversation through web chat, we will automatically create a Contact. However, if the same user accesses from different browsers and is later received by different Agents, there will be multiple contacts belonging to the same customer in the system. At this time, when an administrator views Contact information, the system will have a prompt message indicating that there are duplicate Contacts for this Contact in the system.

Administrators can also manually select the Contacts that need to be merged:

After selecting Contacts, a Contact needs to be specified as the Primary-Contact, and the rest of the contacts are Secondary-Contacts. A maximum of 25 Contacts can be merged at one time.

The following are some data situations after merging:

...

Note

The Contact merge operation is irreversible.

Search Contacts

Info

In many cases, there are too many contacts in a Segment. At this time, if you need to quickly find a specified contact, you can use the Search function of Contacts to find it.

...

  • Fuzzy search: First name, Last name, Email, Phone number.

  • Case-insensitive whole-word search: Custom Contact Fields (except for checkbox and date&time types).

...

Filter Contacts

When you need to batch-filter and accurately select some contacts, you can use the advanced filter to filter contacts. You can find more details from https://cloudfon.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CX/pages/340857344/Contact+Filter+and+Segments?atl_f=content-tree.

Block and Unblock Contacts(Coming soon)

When you need to prevent certain Contacts from continuing to send you junk messages, you can block them. After a Contact is blocked, it will be moved to the Block Segment, and then you will no longer receive any messages from this Contact.

[image]

If you want to unblock this Contact, you only need to click the 'Unblock' button in the Block Segment.
