Conversation Views: Save Filters, Work Faster

Conversation Views in SMBcrm help you save your most-used inbox filters as reusable views, so you can jump between different conversation priorities without rebuilding filters each time. This is especially useful if you routinely monitor the same groups of conversations, like:

  • Unassigned conversations
  • Conversations from specific channels
  • High-priority chats based on specific tags

What Conversation Views do

Instead of repeatedly setting the same filters in Conversations, you can create a named view that always loads those criteria. This can make daily inbox triage faster and more consistent, particularly for teams that manage a high volume of messages.

How to create a Conversation View

1) Open Views and create a new view

Go to Conversations, then find the Views section in the Inbox panel and click + Create View.

2) Add filters and name your view

Choose the filters you want, then give the view a clear name. Once saved, the view appears in the Inbox panel and displays all conversations that match your selected filters.

3) Share views (Admins)

By default, views are visible only to the user who creates them. Admins can share views with other users from the view menu, which can help teams stay aligned on how they manage and prioritize conversations.
