Introduction to Shared Inbox in ChatSyncs

What the Shared Inbox is and how its three panels work together for a team handling WhatsApp conversations.

On this page
  • The three panels
  • What's covered in this section
  • Frequently asked

The Shared Inbox is the one workspace where your whole team views, manages, and replies to every customer conversation coming in over WhatsApp.

  • Multiple team members can work from it at the same time.
  • Every conversation can be filtered, assigned, labeled, and tracked.
  • Nothing gets answered twice, and nothing gets missed.
ChatSyncs dashboard with Shared Inbox highlighted in the left sidebar, alongside Broadcasting, Sequence Messaging, and Webhook Workflow report widgets

The three panels#

Shared Inbox full layout showing the conversation list on the left, the chat window in the center, and the Chat Actions panel on the right
  • Left — the conversation list. Every conversation matching your current filter. Each row shows the customer's name, profile picture, last message, message status, any labels, the date/time, and which bot or team member it's assigned to.
  • Center — the chat window. The full conversation: message history, delivery/read status, and the composer for replying.
  • Right — the Chat Actions panel. Everything for managing the customer behind the open conversation — quick actions, labels, sequences, custom fields, notes.

Example: Priya opens the Shared Inbox, picks a conversation from the left panel, reads the history and replies from the center panel, then in the right panel checks the customer's engagement score and adds a note before moving to the next chat.

What's covered in this section#

Filter Conversations by Channel & Account

Narrow the inbox down to one number, one status, or your own chats.

Organize Conversations with Labels, Views & Search

Tag, sort, and find conversations fast.

AI Translation & Message Rewrite

AI help while replying to a customer.

Team Collaboration & Agent Assignment

Hand conversations between teammates cleanly.

Messaging Tools: Canned Responses, Templates & Attachments

Reply faster with saved responses and files.

Follow-up Reminders & Message Sequences

Never forget to circle back to a customer.

Managing Customer Data with Custom Fields

Keep customer context right inside the conversation.

Settings Menu: Groupchat Widget, Dark Mode & More

The internal team groupchat widget, dark mode, the Follow-up List, and more.

Frequently asked#

Can more than one team member use the Shared Inbox at the same time?

Yes — that's the whole point. Multiple agents work from it simultaneously, and assigning conversations to specific agents keeps them from answering the same customer twice.

What are the three panels I see in the Shared Inbox?

The conversation list (left), the chat window (center), and the Chat Actions panel (right) — together they cover browsing, replying, and managing a customer in one screen.
