Auto-resolve Issues with Concierge Bots

Last Updated: May 21, 2020

A customer may use a Concierge or Knowledge Bot to get all their questions answered. In that case, the Concierge or Knowledge Bot used can auto-resolve the customer's Issue right in the conversation with the user, whether it is conducted through SMS, webConnect, or other channel. All you need to do is set up the Auto-resolve Bot topic with the appropriate responses. This can be done for both Concierge and Knowledge Bots and the setup is almost identical.

NOTE: you can only edit this functionality if you have the Train Bots permission. Please email success@goboomtown.com to get the permission.

  • Go to Bot Topics button (Topics) on the left navigation bar of the Bots modal. Click pencil icon` (Pencil) to edit a topic or add buttonto add a new topic. 
  • Type Auto-resolve as the Subject/Title for convenient search.
  • In the Text section, include a verification message asking the user if their issue has been resolved.
  • Hit Save.

NOTE: If you don't see the auto-resolve topic trigger after your end topic, it could be because the Bot end Bot topic still has Responses/Buttons added to it. The software will only assume that the conversation has ended if an answer doesn't have any associated Responses/Buttons. If you want the auto-resolve functionality to still trigger for a Bot topic with Responses/Buttons, then add {} to the end of the Text for that topic.
