Once you have your Bot Token, you can continue with Axx Omni Telegram channel integration and start sending and receiving messages from your customers.

Routing Rules Setup

Routing Rules Setup

Routing rules determine which chat queue or agent is assigned a ticket when a customer reaches out and a new ticket is created. These rules are configured in the Axx Omni Control Panel to ensure tickets are automatically directed to the most appropriate agent.

With advanced routing rules, management no longer needs to manually assign tickets. Assignments are handled automatically based on predefined criteria.

Example:

If you have separate email inboxes for your Support and Sales teams but want to manage both in Axx Omni, you can configure routing rules to automatically assign messages sent to the Sales inbox to the Sales team and messages sent to the Support inbox to the Support team.

Note: To use Routing Rules, Auto Distribution must be enabled.

Step-by-Step Instructions

  • Log in to your Axx Omni Control Panel.
  • From the left navigation menu, go to Inbox > Settings > Routing Rules.

Option 1: Route Visitors to a Specific Queue or Agent

  • Choose a Chat Queue as the default assignee and set the priority level.

    Note: By default, tickets are assigned Normal priority if no other setting is specified.
  • A new custom rule is created. You can create and manage multiple rules, setting their order of precedence.
  • If a ticket does not match any custom rule, assign it to a default queue.
  • Click Save.

✅ Your routing rules are now active, and tickets will be automatically assigned to the selected queues or agents.

Other Setup

Block Senders Feature

The Block Senders feature allows you to prevent unwanted messages from specific email addresses or domains by either moving them to the Ticket Junk folder or rejecting them entirely.

  • Log in to your Axx Omni Control Console.
  • From the left navigation bar, go to Inbox.
  • In the Settings dropdown, select Blocked Senders and click Add.
  • Enter the email address or domain you want to block and select the Block Level:
  • Mark future messages as Junk: All future emails from this sender will go to the Junk folder.
  • Reject all future messages: Future emails from this sender will not create tickets in the system.
  • Click Save.
  • Click Save.

SLA Policies Setup

Service-Level Agreement (SLA) Setup

A Service-Level Agreement (SLA) is a commitment between a service provider and a client, defining the standards by which service performance is measured. In Axx Omni, you can configure SLAs for Time to First Response, Time to Next Response, or Time to Resolution for tickets within the Inbox.

Step-by-Step Instructions

  • Log in to your Axx Omni Control Panel.
  • From the left navigation menu, go to Inbox > Settings > SLA Policies.
  • Click Add.
  • Enter a name for the SLA policy.
  • In the Target section, specify the response and resolution times (in hours and minutes) that align with your business SLA objectives. Choose between:
  • Calendar Hours: Full 24/7 hours. Use this if your SLA promises round-the-clock support.
  • Operating Hours: Your teamʼs working hours. The SLA clock only runs during these hours.
  • Define Conditions for when the SLA policy applies to tickets.

Fields & Mappings

Fields & Mappings in Axx Omni Inbox

The Fields & Mappings feature in Axx Omni Inbox allows you to create additional fields to capture contextual information for tickets. System fields are provided by default, while custom fields can be created to meet your specific operational or business needs.

Bot Management

Flow Setup

A Flow automates rule-based and repetitive tasks, helping your team improve efficiency and productivity. By using Flows, businesses can boost customer engagement, offer an "always-on" self-service option, and streamline common tasks. This includes collecting leads, routing chats, reducing wait times, and automating routine customer service processes. With Flows in place, your team can focus on the most complex, sensitive, and high-value interactions.

Flow Actions

Flows are built from a series of connected Actions arranged in a guided workflow. These Actions can be used whether youʼre creating a bot from scratch or starting with a template. Only agents with the proper permissions can access and configure these Actions.

Examples of Flow Actions include:

Set AI Agent live for chat

This article explains how to configure and activate the AI Agent in live chat using Workflows. By setting this up, you gain full control and flexibility over how the AI Agent responds to your customers.

Before starting, you must first select an AI Agent for this component.

Branches

Each AI Agent Step contains the following five branches:

  • That helped (default, cannot be removed)
  • Get more help (default, cannot be removed)
  • *Customer inactive
  • *AI Agent is unable to answer
  • Others (default, cannot be removed)

Contacts are routed into one of these branches depending on the conditions defined for that step. Branch Details

Branch Name Description Configuration
That helped This branch handles the situation when the AI Agent answers a question successfully.

You can select the button description that triggers this branch. Of course, if your contact replies Nice, Good, etc., it will also be identified as this branch.

Enabled by default for all AI Agent Steps and cannot be removed.

Get more help This branch handles the situation when the Contact requests to speak to a human agent.

You can select the button description that triggers this branch. Of course, if your contact replies Humam, Manual customer service, etc., it will also be identified as this branch.

Enabled by default for all AI Agent Steps and cannot be removed.

Customer inactive This branch handles the situation when the contact has not responded for 10 minutes (the default). You can decrease this limit if required. Enable this branch by checking "Add customer inactive branch"
AI Agent is unable to answer This branch handles the situation when the AI Agent is unable to answer a question. Enable this branch by checking "Add Al Agents Can't Answer Questions"
Others This branch handles the situation when a technical failure occurs, e.g., the Channel is disconnected, Respond AI credits run out, etc. Enabled by default for all AI Agent Steps and cannot be removed.

Manage Canned Message

Canned Messages are pre-written responses designed for quick reuse and easy access. They are commonly used for greetings, FAQs, and other repetitive interactions. During a chat, agents can send canned messages to visitors quickly using shortcuts.

There are two types of canned messages: public and private.

  • Public Canned Messages: These can be accessed by all agents at a site. Administrators and agents with the appropriate permissions can create, edit, or delete any public canned messages or associated URLs.
  • Private Canned Messages: These are only visible to the agent who created them. By default, agents can create, edit, and delete their own private canned messages or URLs.

This guide outlines the steps to create a canned message and explains the sorting rules for managing them efficiently.

Step-by-Step Instructions: Managing Canned Messages in Axx Omni

Global Features

Availability Report

The Availability Report provides insights into agent status changes within a defined time range. Logged-in agents can switch their status between Online, Away, or select from a set of custom statuses.

You can view the report by Time, Chat Queue, or Agent.

Metrics Included

Widget Description
Online The total amount of time an agent, chat queue, or the entire web chat team is available online. A queue is considered online if at least one agent in that queue is online. The team is considered online if at least one agent is online.
Logged-in At the agent level, this represents the sum of Online time and Away time.
Total Away At the agent level, this represents the sum of all time spent in Away status, including both standard Away and any custom Away statuses.

Note: The report distinguishes between different types of Away time. For example:

 
  • Logged-in = Online + Away

Auto Distribution

Web Chat Auto Distribution

When enabled in the Omnichannel Widget, the queue appears as an option in Web Chat configurations such as auto distribution rules.

Axx Omni Web Chat supports advanced rule-based auto distribution, ensuring chats are routed automatically to the most suitable agent using a combination of basic rules, preference rules, and backup rules.

Chats are only distributed to online agents who have not reached their maximum concurrent chat capacity. Chats are not routed to agents marked as Away or Offline.

 

Basic Distribution Rules

  • Load Balancing – Assigns chats to the agent with the fewest concurrent chats.
  • If multiple agents have the same load, the chat goes to the one with the earliest last allocation time.
  • If no active chats exist, the chat goes to the agent with the longest idle time.
  • Going Offline and coming back Online resets both idle and allocation time.
  • Round Robin – Distributes chats sequentially in the order agents log in, giving equal opportunity to all agents (ideal for sales teams).
  • Agents at maximum capacity are skipped.
  • If a new agent logs in, they are added to the rotation after the current round finishes.
  • Capability Weighted – Assigns chats based on lowest capacity utilization ratio:

Ongoing chats ÷ Maximum concurrent chats.

  • If tied, chats go to the agent with the earliest last allocation or longest idle time.

Preference Rule

  • Last Chatted Agent Preferred – Routes chats to the last agent the visitor interacted with (if available and within capacity).
  • Visitor identification relies on browser cookies (clearing cookies or switching browsers resets visitor identity).

Backup Rule

  • Allows assigning a backup queue.
  • Chats are routed to backup agents when the primary queue is offline or overloaded.
  • In reports, chats handled by backup agents are counted under the original queue.

Inbox Auto Distribution

When enabled in Inbox settings, queues can be used for automatic ticket distribution.

  • Tickets are distributed only once when they are newly created.
  • By default, tickets go to online agents. You can configure to include Away or custom statuses.
  • If a ticket is manually reassigned, it cannot be auto-distributed again.
  • Tickets wait in queue when all agents are offline and are distributed as soon as agents come online.

Auto Distribution Rules for Inbox

  • Load Balancing – Assigns tickets to the agent with the lowest load/capacity utilization.
  • Round Robin – Rotates ticket assignments based on login order.
  • Keep Chat Queue as Assignee – Assigns tickets to the chat queue itself rather than directly to agents.

Configuration Steps

  1. In Auto Distribution Method, toggle to enable assigning tickets to their last assignee (optional).
  2. In Maximum Number of Auto-Assigned Tickets, set limits either:

Steps

  • Select Default by specific settings.
  • Choose your Time Zone.
  • Under Working Hours, set the days and hours your team is available.
  • Under Holidays, click Add Holiday to define exceptions, or remove holidays from the Operations column.

Skills Management

Skill-Based Routing (SBR)

Skill-Based Routing (SBR) ensures chats are directed to agents with the right expertise, so visitors receive the most relevant support. Skills can include languages, technical knowledge, or product expertise.

In Axx Omni, agents can be grouped into departments based on their responsibilities. By combining SBR with department grouping, you can route incoming visitors to the most suitable agents. This setup ensures that customers are connected quickly to an agent in the right department who also has the required skills.

Step-by-Step Instructions

  • Log in to the Axx Omni Control Panel.
  • From the left navigation menu, go to Global Settings > People > Skills.
  • Click Add.
  • Enter the Skill Name, assign the agents who possess this skill, and (optionally) add a description for clarity.
  • Click Save. The new skill will be created and applied.
  • Click Save. The new skill will be created and applied.
  • (Optional) Repeat the process to create additional skills.

Roles & Permissions

Roles Overview

Roles allow you to manage permissions for groups of agents more efficiently. Instead of assigning permissions to agents individually, you can grant them permissions collectively through roles.

In Axx Omni, there are two default roles:

  • Administrators – Have full permissions.

You can edit the permissions for the Agent role or create new roles tailored to your business needs. To configure roles, you must be a site administrator or have permission to manage agents.
