Добрый день. Если в таблицеAnswer Bot activity by articleоткрыть детализацию с любой ячейки - появится таблица с чатами. Однако число этих чатов не совпадает ни с одной цифрой строке. Что это за чаты? И почему они отображаются не все, а только выборочно?
Детализацияпозволяетуточнитьрезультатызапросас помощью дополнительных атрибутов. Подробнее о работе детализации в статье "Using drill in to refine your queries".
Я свяжусь с Вами лично, чтобы проверить атрибуты для детализации и несовпадение данных в Вашем аккаунте.
Is there a way to see what the end-user asked/said? Especially for the instances when the Answer Bot wasn't able to suggest a relevant article?
In the "Answer Bot activity by article" I have some titles which don't have an author? How is that possible?
You can refer toExplore recipe: Analyzing the last 100 Answer Bot tickets．It will show you howAnswer Enquirywas utilized.
Hi Denise,
Try to check the article directly in Guide Admin > Manage Articles > Published. If there's an author appearing on the specific article when you check the settings, you cancontact support directlyand we'll investigate further.
I want to find out the search phrases my customers are using. Where do I see that for Answer Bot?
您可以使用属性Answer Enquiry．
Hope this helps!
Hi,
Is there any way to see what resolution rate is for web widget vs resolution rate for email recommendations? It would be great to see which one is working better.
Thanks.
You can use the filter Answer Channel to specify the channel from which the inquiry came from.
You can also create your own report using theAnswer Bot datasetto create a more personalized query.
Hi,
I'm trying to find out what an 'Indirect Resolution' is. Does anyone know?
Thanks,
Great question! This information can be found in this article:Metrics and Attributes for Zendesk Answer Bot
Indirect Resolution - In some situations, articles suggested by Answer Bot don’t resolve the customer’s enquiry directly but instead point them in the right direction in the help center to find the answer to their question. These resolutions are known as indirect resolutions. Indirect resolutions are reflected in决议,Indirect resolutionsandAnswer statusfields.
I hope this helps!
Hello,
My report is not gathering data from clicked articles recommended by my bot. Could you help me please?
Also, replies by customer support within zendesk have been quite slow (trying to find an answer to this question since Friday with no successful answer).
Thanks,
Pablo
with this specific question on your report, we would kindly ask you, toopen a ticket with Support, so that we can take a closer look and troubleshoot the issue.
Hi all,
I am looking to diagnose at what point does the answer bot transfer to an agent when an article is suggested?
Thanks for asking. Please use Explore > Zendesk Answer Bot >Article Recommendations datasetsfor checking analytics.
Another option is to link your Answer bot with GA and analyze information from there like:
-Answer Bot Article Viewed
- Article ID,
- article name
- When the end user views an article from the list of suggested articles
For linking GA please follow ->Setting up and using Google Analytics for the Web Widget (Classic)
Or you can useGoogle Tag Manager对于analyzing diagnose at what point does the answer bot transfer to an agent when an article is suggested.
Hope it helps
