💬New dialog

The New dialog feature allows agents to be the first to write to a new customer.

To be the first to send a message, you need to select the Messenger you want to use and fill in the required fields for sending from this messenger.

You can start interacting with new customers first through the following channels:

API channel (available for WhatsApp and Telegram messengers)
Telegram by phone
Viber by phone

The option is available only if there is a channel from which you can write to the first new client (to do this, you need to activate the Can write first to a new customer option in the Inbox settings).
