People who opt-in to your chatbot by interacting with it are considered bot users. These become contacts inside of your chatbot channel and during the course of a single or multiple conversations, the chatbot will be able to gather information about them to give you more insights into your audience.
You can go to your bot users by going to the corresponding section in the left-hand menu once you have logged into one of your chatbots.
From here you will see a list with a complete overview of all users that have interacted with and therefore opted into your chatbot.
Filter bot users based on conditions
Once on this overview, you can also quickly segment your users by using the filter option. Once pressed you will be able to use any condition/filter you like.
This gives you the ability to quickly see what tags someone has, or what values a custom user fields are.
An example of a filter could be that you want to know who amongst the bot users has given its email.
Another example could be when a user finishes the initial onboarding flow you tag them as such and you want to be able to see who did this.
User information
Once pressing a certain bot user a popup will appear and it will show all the collected bot user details so far.
You will see the following on the left side:
Name
Gender
Language
Timezone
Local time
Below the profile image, you will have the ability to either delete the user or download the user data. This will help you become GDPR compliant as users might request this from you.
You will also see the specific channel user id and some date and time information like subscribed, last interaction and such.
If we go with the right side of the user information you will see tabs for:
Notes
User tags
Subscribed Sequences
OTN Topics
Custom User fields
Only you press one of the tabs you will be able to view the data collected.
For tags, you will have the most options at your disposal.
You will be able to add tags directly to the user but also remove them as well.
For the topics Subscribed Sequences, OTN Topics you will be able to only remove them from the user.
For Custom User Fields you can either remove or change its value.
Importing or creating new users
For the SMS and voice channels, it is also possible to import or create users manually. In the top right, you will have the buttons to do so.
Creating a new user means adding a single user manually whereas Import means you can do this in bulk by means of a CSV file.
Creating and Using Segments in Your Platform
Creating segments based on filtration criteria allows you to retrieve user data efficiently without repeatedly applying the same conditions. This doc will guide you through the benefits and steps of creating and using segments on your platform.
Why Use Segments?
Efficiency: Save segments based on specific conditions and fetch results faster in the future without reapplying those conditions each time.
Convenience: Once created, segments are available for future use, simplifying data retrieval processes.
Steps to Create a Segment
Define the Condition: Set the filtration criteria to segment users based on attributes like tags, location, etc.
Save the Segment: Name the segment for easy identification and future use.
Access the Segment: After saving, the segment appears under bot users, ready for future use.
Using Segments in Live Chat
You can filter users in live chat based on the created segments, ensuring you focus on specific user groups when interacting in real time.
Applying Segments in Flow Builder
Segments can be applied as conditions in the flow builder, allowing you to tailor the user experience based on predefined user groups.
Customizing the User Interface
Field Visibility: To streamline the interface, show or hide fields related to bot users, such as name, avatar, email, country, etc.
Field Placement: You can adjust the position of fields up or down to organize the user data display according to your preference.
Importing Users
The final result of an import may take time for large user lists. The progress and outcome of the import job will be displayed in the Tools section under export jobs.
