Common use cases
Section titled “Common use cases”- Automated first response — An agent reads new tickets, determines the issue type, and sends an initial response with relevant information (order status, tracking number, return instructions) while the ticket is routed to the right team.
- Ticket classification — An agent reviews incoming tickets and applies tags and priority levels based on the content, helping your support team focus on urgent issues first.
- Customer context lookup — During a conversation, an agent pulls up the customer’s Gorgias profile, order history, and previous tickets to provide personalised, informed support.
- Internal notes — An agent adds internal notes to tickets summarising research findings, so human agents who pick up the ticket later have full context without re-reading the thread.
- Escalation workflows — A workflow monitors ticket age and priority. If a high-priority ticket goes unanswered for too long, the workflow escalates it by reassigning it and notifying a manager.
Best practices for support teams
Section titled “Best practices for support teams”- Start with internal notes only — Before allowing an agent to respond directly to customers, set it up to add internal notes. This lets your team review the agent’s suggestions before they reach customers.
- Use approval gates — In workflows, add approval gates before any step that sends a message to a customer. This keeps a human in the loop for sensitive interactions.
- Combine with knowledge bases — Upload your FAQ, return policy, and product documentation to a knowledge base so the agent has accurate, up-to-date information to reference in responses.
Troubleshooting
Section titled “Troubleshooting”“Unauthorised” errors The Gorgias OAuth token may have been revoked. Disconnect and reconnect the integration from the Integration Hub.
Agent cannot find tickets Check that the connected Gorgias account has access to the tickets you are searching for. Some Gorgias plans restrict API access based on user roles.
Rate limiting Gorgias applies rate limits to API requests. If your agents are making frequent queries, you may see throttling. Spread out automated checks or reduce polling frequency.
