Once you’ve added your account to Sprinklr, you can configure ticket creation rules.
To Configure WhatsApp Business Ticket Creation Rules
On the WhatsApp Account window, click the Options icon and select Edit alongside the added business account.
Toggle on/off the Convert Private Messages into Tickets option to configure all the upcoming tickets. You can configure all the upcoming messages based on the following options:
Convert All Private Messages - This option will allow you to convert any private messages initiated by any customer on your number into tickets. The first option Convert All Private Messages into tickets by default converts all the private messages into tickets. You can reply to these tickets directly from the portal and they will reach the sender as messages. This will be the same as having a private conversation with your customers.
Engageable Private Messages - Although, you can change this configuration from the drop-down menu and select to convert only Engageable Private Messages into the ticket. Sprinklr employs the industry’s most advanced AI to pull engageable messages out of the noise and convert them into tickets.
Filtered Private Messages - You can also choose to add desired conditions to filter private messages and convert them into tickets by using the Filtered Private Messages option. This option helps you set conditions to define the rules to segregate the upcoming tickets. For example, if you wish to convert only those messages into tickets with the keyword Refund in them, you can set the Keyword condition.
Select the desired Ticket Threading Interval for every setting. It helps you thread multiple private messages received from the same customer within a particular time frame into one ticket.
Toggle on/off the Enable Undo Send option and add a time duration from the drop-down menu. This option will help you undo any message that you have sent out to the customer by mistake.
Click Save in the bottom right corner.
