We have a new Agent, and that agent is not receiving the open live chats in the inbox.
even when the agent status is available, what could be the reason
we are facing issue only with this particular agent

Hi @shaa066,
check and compare that agent's role, groups, skills... and eventually the AWA Queues... as it can be missing agent skill or not being a member of a specific group.
let me know if oyu have progress

@shaa066 Go to "awa_agent_presence_capacity" table and check the state of agent.
Also check the available capacity and capacity in use. If the agent is not able to mark him online on workspace, it could be an issue with awa_agent role.
Please mark the answer correct/helpful accordingly.

hi @shaa066 ,
If only one agent is unable to receive live chats while others are working fine, it usually comes down to configuration issues for that specific user. A few things to check:
Roles & Permissions
Make sure the user has the correct roles, e.g., sn_openframe_user, chat_agent, connect_support_agent, or the roles required by your specific Advanced Work Assignment (AWA) setup.
Compare their roles with another agent who is successfully receiving chats.
Agent Workspace / Inbox configuration
Verify that the agent is included in the correct assignment queue / routing configuration for chat.
Check the Assignment Rule / Routing Condition to confirm that this agent’s group is part of the chat channel.
Presence & Status
Confirm the agent is actually in “Available” status in the correct channel (Messaging/Chat). Sometimes users appear available but not in the right channel.
Queue membership
In Routing > Assignment Queues, ensure the agent is a member of the queue that receives live chat work items.
Licensing
Make sure the agent has the required license (e.g., “Customer Service Agent” or “ITSM Agent” with messaging entitlements).
Tip: The fastest way to troubleshoot is to compare this agent’s configuration (roles, group membership, queue membership) with a working agent. Any mismatch there is usually the root cause.
