Identities

The people and places your agents speak as, each with its own details, hours and ways to be reached.

An identity is a person or a place that an agent acts for, such as Dana in sales or the Downtown store. One agent can speak as many identities.

Identities are not Studio users. They never sign in. They are records the company keeps, with the details an agent needs to speak as them.

The company decides which details every identity has, such as a name, a communication style or a background. An agent is told those details when it writes as that identity.

An identity's contact details: its own receiving email, SIP address, phone number, link and website widget code.
Each identity gets its own email, number, link and chat widget.
