Flows 101Updated 9 days ago
Flows are automated Q&A conversation scenarios that operate accross multiple channels and assist shoppers with personalized guides, answers, and recommendations.
Flows allow you to create custom multi-step paths to answer your shoppers' questions based on their particular preferences.
Examples of how you can leverage this feature include:
- Product recommendations
- Sizing guides
- Return policies (if you have multiple)
- Shipping policies (if these change based on location)
- Warranty claims
- How-to guides (when products require education)
- Report order issue scenarios
- Triage questions before they reach an agent
Flows are available at the store level. You'll have as many flow menus as you have store integrations.
Since our newest update, you can now display different flows per chat. You will be able to create, edit, change, or disable flows for each of your Chat integrations, and for each of your channels.
Channels where Flows can be published
Flows are channel agnostic. You can make the same flow available in Chat, Help Center, and Contact Form.
Below is an example of how these appear:
Here's how a Flow will look like on your Gorgias Help Center page:
