Hi @Thato Masingi ,

Chats hanging in Agent Workspace are usually due to presence or capacity settings. Please check the following:

  • Ensure agents’ presence status is set to Available.

  • Verify agents’ capacity is not set too low or reached maximum.

  • Confirm chats are routed to the correct queue and that agents are assigned.

  • Validate routing rules/conditions are correctly configured.

  • Ask agents to clear browser cache or re-login to rule out local glitches.

  • Review system logs for errors impacting chat routing.

 

 

Thanks & Regards,
