Chat Session Report
Contents
Examine the number of chat sessions, the number of messages within chat sessions, and how often chats were missed or transferred.
Understanding the Chat Session Report
Use the (Chat folder) Chat Session Report to learn more about the number of chat sessions handled in your contact center within a specific time period, including details about the number of messages within the chat sessions, and the number and percentage of chat sessions that were missed or transferred.
A session is defined as a single interaction or chat conversation (which can contain more than one engagement by any given agent), as opposed to a thread, which is a series of sessions related by a common thread ID.
