Handoff rules are the instructions you give to your AI Assistant for what to do with a task when it needs to be escalated or if it is resolved. Think of these as the instructions you would give an employee for what to do if they’ve completed a task, or what to do if they are blocked and need to pass it on.
Handoff actions
Within our handoff rules, you can define:
- Whether it applies to a specific set of properties or company-wide
- Whether it applies to calls and/or SMS and emails
- Whether it applies to a specific context
- Who to assign the task to
- Who to subscribe
- Status updates
- Workspace updates
- Adding a due date
- Adding categories
- Posting an internal comment
- Phone tree for phone call escalation
- To trigger a phone tree, specify the phone numbers to dial; they will be dialed in the order they are written. If call cannot be connected to a recipient via phone tree, a message will be recorded.
