Smart Inbox & Message Troubleshooting
Diagnose missing conversations, wrong tabs, reply failures, duplicate contacts, media, assignment, and handover.
Overview
Conversation is missing: Check channel connection, provider event delivery, webhook or subscription, workspace, tab, and filter.
Conversation appears in the wrong tab: Check source mapping and event type.
Agent cannot reply: Check role, assignment, channel window, template requirement, and provider error.
Duplicate contact: Normalize phone and email and use the approved merge process.
Media is unavailable: Check provider media event, file format, storage, and permission.
Wrong assignment: Check team routing, automation, and current owner.
Automation continues after handover: Add a pause or stop action and review overlapping flows.
