Frequently asked questions

Will all users be able to raise support cases through the in-app assistant?

All users can access the Help Centre, and everyone will see the digital chatbot. However, only support-authorised users can send a message to Support to raise a case. Users without support permissions can still view:

  • Chatbot posts (outbound banners/messages)

  • Status Hub information

  • Help Centre content

They simply won’t see the option to send a message.

Will support entitled users change?

No – this will remain exactly the same.

Can we track support requests raised via the in-app assistant in the Support Portal?

Yes - Support requests raised through Intercom will automatically create a read-only ticket in Salesforce, and will automatically sync updates for both open and closed conversations and tickets every 4 hours. These completed cases will then be visible in the Support Portal.

What happens if the software is unavailable and the Digital chatbot can’t be accessed?

If the software is unavailable, users can still access the Help Centre independently of the application.

From the Help Centre:

  • All users can access the chatbot (for posts, outbound messages, and Status Hub updates)

  • Support-authorised users can raise cases if they need assistance

Our phone number remains unchanged, therefore users can still contact support via this method.
