Step 2. Click on the "Twitter" icon.

Step 3. Click on the "Sign in with Twitter" button.

Step 4. You will be redirected to Twitter. Click on the "Authorize app" button.

Step 5. "Add agents" to your Twitter inbox.

You have successfully created a Twitter inbox. You will now be able to manage Twitter DMs as well as tweets mentioning you from Snypto.

Additional Inbox settings

Your freshly configured Twitter inbox should now appear in your list of inboxes. To see this and to make additional settings in your Twitter inbox, go to Settings → Inboxes → click the gear icon on the associated Twitter inbox. You will see the following screen:

You can make some fundamental changes here.

Enable channel greeting. Once you enable this, Snypto will send a greeting message to new conversations created through your Twitter inbox.

Enable CSAT. Once you enable this, your Customer Satisfaction survey will be launched every time a ticket is resolved. The CSAT results can be viewed later in the Reports section.

Collaborators tab

Click on the Collaborators tab. Here, you can add Agents to the Inbox or delete Agents already added to the Inbox.

You can also enable or disable the automatic assignment of new conversations to the agents added to this inbox.

Once the check box is ticked, the below section opens up. You can write your message to be displayed to the customer during OFF business hours.
