FAQs
When is the CSAT message sent
The CSAT message/ ephemeral (based on your settings) is sent out when you close a request.
Does the CSAT message gets deleted if the request is reopened
Yes, the CSAT message sent to the customers in the thread is deleted if the request is reopened.
Note that only if the CSAT was sent as a message, it is deleted. Ephemerals can NOT be deleted if the request is reopened. They are deleted if the customer reopened the request or shared a feedback.
Can my customers reopen the request from the CSAT message?
Yes, they have a button within the CSAT message for reopening a request.
Can my customers edit the feedback they shared?
Only if the CSAT was sent as a message. The customer can click on any of the emoticons again to update their feedback
Ephemerals are deleted once the customer clicks on any emoticons and hence those can NOT be updated by the customer.
