Inbox Tabs

The new Social Inbox is organized into specific tabs to help you stay focused on the status of your tasks:

  • Inbox: Where all new, incoming tickets land.

  • My Tasks: Tickets specifically assigned to you.

  • Flagged: Messages you’ve flagged.

  • Hidden: Tickets that have been hidden from public view.

  • Deleted: All deleted tickets.

  • Done: Your archive for tickets that have finished being moderated.

  • All: A comprehensive view of every ticket.

The Ticket View

The Social Inbox allows you to see all comments under a post in a single window.

This is how the ticket in the Inbox looks:

  1. The name of the user who wrote the message/ comment

  2. Assign Moderator: Manually assign a ticket to a teammate. Note that taking any action on a ticket will automatically assign it to you.

  3. Add Sentiment: Tag messages as positive, neutral, or negative for sentiment analysis.

  4. Tagging: Apply pre-defined message tags for ticket organization.

  5. Flagging: Flag important items for later.

  6. Translate: Quickly translate incoming tickets to your preferred language.

  7. Ticket ID

  8. Delete the comment

  9. Like the comment

  10. Reply to a comment/ Write internal notes/ Send to consult: when you click on this button, you'll have the option to reply to a comment, leave notes for your team to see, or send a message via email for external consultation when you need an outside opinion.

11. Archive (Done): Once moderation is complete, click the checkmark icon to move the ticket to the Done tab.

12. Moderation history: Track who and when replied to the message, what action they took, or what automatic rule was triggered.


Filtering & Organization

Manage your workflow your way by using the filtering system. You can sort messages by:

  • Platform & Profile: Filter by specific social media profiles or message types (e.g., comments, direct messages, mentions).

  • Date: Select specific timeframes for your view.

  • Ticket Status: Available in the All tab to view flagged, hidden, deleted, or done items.

  • Assigned moderators

  • Sentiment & Tags: Drill down into specific sentiments or custom user/content tags.


Social CRM Profiles

Build stronger relationships by creating Social CRM Profiles for your contacts. This feature allows you to:

  • Track all past conversations with a specific user.

  • Add contact details like names and emails.

  • Create a new profile or link a message to an existing one to maintain a consistent history.

  • Mark the user's sentiment or add their tag.
