    Configure Skill Groups

    Skill groups are used to differentiate customer service representatives with different functions. You can add customer service representatives to different skill groups according to your business needs. If there's no requirement to categorize the customer service representatives, create a single skill group and add all customer service representatives to it.
    1. In the left navigation menu, click Livechat settings > Skill Groups to access the skill group management page. Click on Add Skill Group to create a group for conducting user consultations.
    
    
    
    2. Click edit to add customer service to the skill group. For other operations of skill group management, refer to the document Skill Group Management.

    Create a session service flow

    A session service flow is the guide process when a user enters the online customer service. It can be set to send the user a welcome message, guide, etc. You can configure branches, turn to human assist and other features in the conversation service flow.
    1. On the left navigation bar, click Livechat settings > Session Service Flow to enter the session service flow management page, click New at the top left corner of the page.
    
    
    
    2. Input the name of the session service flow: Enter the name of the session service flow at the top left corner of the canvas, for instance: Online conversation reception.
    3. Connection Module: Depending on your scenario, you need to drag and drop the corresponding modules into the appropriate positions in the canvas area, interconnect them, and fill in the relevant details in each module (For specifics, please refer to Conversation Service Flow Module). Every conversation service process should start with the commencement module as the first module and conclude with the termination module as the last one.
    
    
    
    4. Once you save the configuration of the conversation service flow, click on Save on the top right corner of the canvas to return to the conversation service flow list.
