How to monitor the emails of your organization in the Agent Workspace

You can view emails that are waiting in queue, closed, or currently assigned to an Operator in your organization.

To list emails, click the arrow in the-top left corner of the Agent Workspace above your list of sessions.

Important: You must have Actions > Emails > Grid View: All Email Threads permission to see emails in Monitor View.

Then select Email from the Channels drop-down list. Emails are grouped on the following tabs:

Queue
Emails in queue waiting to be assigned to an Operator.
Assigned to Agent
Emails which have already been assigned to an Operator.
Closed
Closed emails of your organization.

View email details

You can select the level of email details that you want to see in your workspace by clicking the column selector (cogwheel) on the right. Columns in the selector can be sorted by name and order of appearance in the email list. Sorting does not apply to the column order in the email list.

You can also filter emails by department and email folder. To do so, click the department selector or the email folder drop-down list respectively.

Manage your email threads

You can do the following when you monitor your email threads:

Get the preview of an email
Select an email in the list to get a preview of the ongoing conversation with the customer. The preview is displayed on the email preview panel on the right of the email list.
Search for email threads
You can search for email threads based on any details that you see in the columns. When you type into the Search field above the list of emails, it dynamically filters and lists those emails that contain your search term in any visible columns.
Filter closed email threads
You can list email threads that were closed on selected dates. On the Closed tab at the top of the page, click the date filter drop-down list, which is set to Today by default, then select a pre-defined time span for listing your closed email threads. You can also select a custom date-range from the calendar. Click Refresh to list closed email threads for the selected period. Only those email threads are listed where the Closed date is within the defined period of time.
Filter your own emails
You can list your own emails on the Assigned to Agent and Closed tabs by clicking My items above the list of emails.
Transfer emails
You can transfer emails between Operators in your organization on the Queued and Assigned to Agent tabs. Transferring emails is similar to transferring chats. For more information, see How to transfer a chat in the Agent Workspace.
