How do I make Canned Messages in the Chatjy App
What exactly are canned messages?
As an agent, you must repeatedly copy-paste the same answer to many general queries.
For example, product pricing, product description, welcome message, and so on.
You won’t have to do that anymore!
Instead, you can use Canned Messages to save your responses and then send them to your users with a single click from the live chatbox.
Canned messages are responses that you can save and use repeatedly in your chat by using a ‘/’ in the Live chatbox.
Send it hassle-free, only on Chatjy, whether it’s a welcome message, about the company, product pricing, product description, or anything else!
It doesn’t even have to be a text message!
Depending on your needs, you can also add images, files, audio, and videos as canned messages.
