1. How does the custom value user? Name work in Eliza Agent Platform?

  • When a user is assigned to a contact, and if the user. Name is used in workflow or Eliza; it will substitute the assigned user.

2. How to bring contacts into Eliza without an inbound message or the one who made an inbound call?

In cases where the contact does not send inbound messages or makes only inbound calls, the contact does not automatically come into Eliza. In those cases, use Send to Eliza action from the workflows and send them to Eliza.


Send to Eliza Workflow action.

Configure the Send to Eliza workflow action for the qualifying contacts and let the platform take care of it automatically for you. 


If a Send to Eliza tag is configured to be assigned to the leads coming into Eliza, that tag will also be assigned before the contact is sent over. This tag assignment is not mandatory for this action to work.

5. How to make blind and warm transfers in calls?

Blind Transfer


A Blind Transfer is when you transfer the caller to another extension or ring group (queue) without waiting for the target agent to pick up first. It is an immediate, unannounced call transfer to the destination number.


Start the outbound call to the lead by clicking the phone icon.

You will see the note at the top of the conversation page when the call is in progress, as shown below.



Click the down arrow next to the dialer icon on the popup to make the blind transfer.


Click on Blind transfer.

Choose the GHL team member from the list shown. 


Only those numbers already part of the GHL team Section can be transferred. Select the team member to whom this call should be transferred, and click "Call & Disconnect."



If you want to add a new member, login into GHL and create a new team member with their phone number. 

If you want another Eliza agent to call this customer, transfer the conversation to that agent via Seach > Contacts. We will soon be able to transfer the call to another Eliza Agent directly.



Warm Transfer


A warm call transfer means that the receptionist will speak with the appropriate agent before they send the call to them. The extension the caller requested is informed of the incoming call transfer. Typically, the caller will be put on hold while the call center operator dials the desired extension.




Make an outbound call to the contact.

From the popup that appears at the top of the page, Choose "Warm Transfer."

Choose the number to warm transfer this call, then click "Call and Hold."


The system will wait for agent 2 to pick up the call.




Once agent 2 attends the call, click "Patch Call" to put all three numbers in a conference. 


Press the red color "Drop Off" button to disconnect from the conference. This action will let the contact and agent 2 continue their conversation.



Troubleshooting:


If the system becomes inconsistent, ensure the browser can access the microphone and refresh the page to ensure the connection with Twilio goes through correctly.

 


6. When an appointment is created for a contact, the contact is not removed from the chat queue. Do I need to do anything special to make them be removed (as far as tags go or anything?)

The system will not know if booking an appointment ends the conversation. So it will keep it open. Agents can close the conversation by clicking "End Chat." If you don't have any further dispositions to be assigned, you can choose the "Close without a disposition" button and close the conversation.."


7. I can't see the Eliza Service tab on GHL in sub account> Settings.

Please check for the following conditions.


  • If the location is added to your account on Eliza Agent Platform
  • The email address of the user who is expected to have access to the Location settings > Eliza Service tab should be added as a location admin or location user for that location
  • That same email address should have Eliza Service permission enabled, so they can edit the FAQs and configure Eliza bypass tag and the Send to Eliza tag on Location Settings > Eliza Service tab.
