Worth knowing before you commit

An operator with no Odoo activity for thirty minutes is treated as disconnected and removed from the channel, which quietly shrinks coverage during slow periods.

Chatbot Text steps only deliver information and accept no visitor input, so any script built from them needs a question step to continue.

In Canada

Live Chat for a Canadian business

Live chat transcripts are personal information under PIPEDA once they identify a visitor. Decide retention and disclosure before you switch it on.
