Consider, a user has initiated a conversation with the bot, and it is going well so far.
At any instance where the user wishes to chat with an agent to get his queries resolved, he would be directed to the Agent.
How a new chat is assigned to an agent?
- When the user initiates his conversation on the bot, he would be asked to enter few details, as shown.
- The above details are optional, the user can either enter his details or can choose to skip and select Start Chat.

- On Zendesk Agent dashboard, you can check the departments and the agents assigned in those departments.
- When the user requests to chat with an agent, he would receive the following response.
- On the Agent dashboard, the agent would receive a notification, and he can begin chatting with the user.
- When the agent opens the chat, he receives the user's text, and can now start the conversation.
- The user would receive the reply on his chat screen. He would also receive an additional response, that says that the Agent has joined the chat, as shown below.
- This representation above clearly shows that the bot to agent transfer has been successful.
How does the chat between user and agent end?

How can an agent, transfer his chat to another agent?

- Consider, there are two agents, and a query has been asked to an agent, and the agent is unsure about the resolution. In this case, he can choose to transfer his chat to another agent, by selecting Transfer to agent.
- The agent will have to enter the email id of another agent, to whom the chat would be transferred.
- When the agent transfers the chat, he leaves the chat and another agent gets the handover.
- Similar is reflected on the User's chat window.
- Another agent takes the handover, and resumes the conversation with the user.

- By default, sharing is enabled for the following file types:

- JPEG (.jpeg)
- GIF (.gif)
- Text (.txt)
