Managing Customer Data with Custom Fields in ChatSyncs

How to see and store customer context right inside the conversation, so an agent never has to ask a customer to repeat themselves.

On this page
  • Quick Actions
  • Customer Snapshot
  • Engagement Score
  • Messaging Window
  • Custom Fields and Customer Journey
  • Frequently asked

In ChatSyncs, the Chat Actions panel keeps everything about the customer right next to the conversation, so an agent has full context before replying.

Quick Actions#

Quick Actions grid with Pause Bot, Pause AI, Google Meet, Custom Field, Assign Agent, Messaging Window, Add Label, Add Note, and Start Flow

One-click shortcuts: Pause Bot, Pause AI, Google Meet, Custom Field, Assign Agent, Messaging Window, Add Label, Add Note, and Start Flow.

Click See More to expand the grid further — Send Flow, Add Label, Assign Team, Add Sequence, Custom Field, Messaging Window, and Google Meet — plus a ⋮ overflow menu with a few less-common actions:

Expanded Quick Actions grid with a See Less toggle, and an overflow menu showing Unsubscribe, Reset User Input Flow, Reset Appointment, and Clear Chat History
  • Unsubscribe — opt the customer out of future broadcasts and sequences.
  • Reset User Input Flow — clear their progress through an in-progress Input Flow so it starts over from the beginning.
  • Reset Appointment — clear a booked appointment tied to this conversation.
  • Clear Chat History — permanently delete the visible message history for this conversation.

Clear Chat History can't be undone — the message history is permanently deleted, not just hidden.

Customer Snapshot#

Customer Snapshot showing Email, Last Seen, Bot Name, and Assigned Agent

A quick summary: the customer's Email, Last Seen time, which Bot Name/number the conversation came through, and the Assigned Agent.

Engagement Score#

Engagement Score showing 92%, with Messages Sent, Replies Received, Broadcast Opened, and Interaction Rate

An overall score plus Messages Sent, Replies Received, Broadcast Opened, and Interaction Rate — a quick read on how engaged this customer is.

Messaging Window#

Messaging Window status showing Outside 24H Window

Shows whether the conversation is inside or outside WhatsApp's 24-hour customer service window. Once it shows Outside 24H Window, you need an approved Message Template to message the customer again — a plain text reply won't go through.

Custom Fields and Customer Journey#

  • Assigned Custom Fields / Custom Fields — attach predefined fields (e.g. Product Interest, Budget, Preferred Language) or other customer-specific data (Company Name, Order Number, Lead Source) to this conversation.
Assign Custom Fields dropdown open, listing Email, opt_status, and Request Type
  • Customer Journey — the customer's subscription status and opt-in source.
Customer Snapshot showing Email, Last Seen, Bot Name, Status Subscribed, Messaging Window Inside 24H, and OPT-IN Through Direct
  • View Full Profile — opens the complete customer profile with full interaction history.

Labels live in the same panel too — you don't need to leave the conversation and go to Subscriber Manager to tag a customer or fill in their custom fields:

Chat Actions panel showing a Labels field with the batch2 label already assigned, a Lists field, a Message Sequence field, and an Assign Custom Fields dropdown

Right from this same Chat Actions panel, an agent can add or remove a Label, add the conversation to a List, enroll it in a Message Sequence, and assign a Custom Field — all without switching screens. See Labels for how labels work in more detail.

Real example — an order-tracking conversation with everything filled in at once:

Chat Actions panel with Customer Journey showing Status Subscribed and OPT-IN Through Direct, Custom Fields showing Customer name Rahul Sharma, Estimated Delivery Mumbai, Order ID, Product Delivered, Status Shipped, and Tracking ID, plus Notes and View Full Profile
  • Customer Journey — Status: Subscribed (2nd Jul 26 09:46), OPT-IN Through: DIRECT.
  • Custom Fields — Customer name: Rahul Sharma, Estimated Delivery: Mumbai, Order ID: Lakshit Ukani, Product: Delivered, Status: Shipped, Tracking ID: TRK654321.

With this filled in, an agent opening the conversation can see the customer's order status and tracking number at a glance, without asking the customer to repeat themselves or looking it up in a separate system.

Frequently asked#

A customer's chat hasn't replied in a while — why can't I just send a text?

Check the Messaging Window in the Chat Actions panel. If it shows Outside 24H Window, WhatsApp requires an approved Message Template before you can message the customer again.

Where do I see a customer's order details or other saved data during a chat?

Under Custom Fields / Assigned Custom Fields in the Chat Actions panel — any predefined field (order ID, budget, product interest) shows right there.

How do I tell how engaged a customer is before replying?

Check the Engagement Score in the Chat Actions panel — it summarizes messages sent, replies received, and interaction rate.

How do I stop a customer's stuck Input Flow or appointment booking?

Click See More in Quick Actions, then use the ⋮ overflow menu — Reset User Input Flow clears their progress through a form, and Reset Appointment clears a booked appointment tied to the conversation.

Can I permanently delete a conversation's message history?

Yes — Clear Chat History in the ⋮ overflow menu under Quick Actions. This can't be undone.
