Notes
Since the Auto End Alert Batch runs every five minutes, there may be a difference between the configured notification time and the actual delivery time.
Example:
Field
Value
Chat After Time (Auto-End Time)
1 hour
Chat After Time Alert (End Notification Time)
5 minutes before
Last Agent Chat Time
00:04
Actual Auto End Notification Time
01:00
As shown above, depending on the batch execution cycle, notification messages may be sent with a slight delay compared to the configured timing. Please keep this in mind.
Sessions are eligible for Auto End notifications only when the last message in the session is either a customer identity verification request or a message sent directly by an agent.
