Learn how to use collaborative features in NapoleonCat's Social Inbox to streamline your team's workflow

With NapoleonCat, you can assign tickets (customer comments, messages, and the like) to different team members, flag crucial messages, scribble down internal notes, and even toss out "to consult" emails to seek guidance from your crew or external pros.

Let's jump right in!


Assign tickets

Have a team star, Kate, who's a maestro at tackling complaints? All good! Or a product guru, Tom? Fantastic!

You have the power to assign customer chats to team members, so everyone gets to work on what they shine at.

To assign a ticket, hit this icon from the main Inbox view in Social Inbox:

assign moderator

When a ticket is assigned to you, it'll appear in "My Tasks":

my tasks

Once you swing into action, the ticket will do a quick leap into the appropriate tab, depending on your chosen action (hidden, archived, deleted, flagged).


Flag messages

Caught a message that has 'urgent' written all over it? Is a response needed ASAP to prevent a negative spiral? You got this!

🚩 With the option to flag messages, you can put those high-priority, needs-immediate-action chats on your urgent radar:

Flag messages

They make their way to the 'Flagged' folder for easy access. And you always have the power to unflag when things settle down!

Internal notes

When you're on a ticket, you might need to dish out some extra info to your teammates or throw out a question. They're for your team's eyes only, so feel free to drop all the juicy info you want without fretting about customers getting a peek.

Leave or respond to internal notes right from the thread view:

Send "To Consult" Messages

Sometimes, you might stumble upon a ticket that you're not sure how to handle. That's okay! You can send a "to consult" note to your team members or even people outside of your organization to get advice:

send to consult


This lets you collaborate with your team and figure out the best way to handle the ticket. A request to consult will be sent to the email address(es) you specify.


Spotting Internal Notes and "To Consult" messages

How can you check from the main Social Inbox view if a ticket has any internal notes or a consultation chat? No problem!

You'll spot Notes right in the main ticket view:

Inbox Activity Reports

πŸ’β€β™€οΈ Although Inbox Activity Reports are nestled within the Reports feature, they're also tightly linked to the Social Inbox.

So, you have an all-star social media moderation team, each shining brighter than the last! But how do you assess their performance? Who earns the cheers and who needs a friendly nudge?

πŸ“Š Inbox Activity Reports have got your back!

Use Teamwork Features in the Social Inbox in NapoleonCat

They're brimming with all the data you need. Spot your moderator's name, track their average response time, and their daily reaction and reply count. Even see the kinds of reactions they're distributing, like likes, tags, hides, and flags.

Curious? Can't blame you!
