  • Assigning a contact to a user from the details page
  • Bulk assigning contacts to a user
  • Assigning contacts to a user via import
  • Assigning a contact to a user from the Chat Widget

  2.  Select the contacts to assign to a user by enabling the checkbox beside their names.
  3. From the bulk actions tray, click the Assign to button.In the Assign to overlay, choose the user you want the selected contacts assigned to from the dropdown.
