Last updated on Apr 16, 2025

Quick Replies allow you to save frequently used messages as reusable templates. They help you respond faster to common customer questions, boosting team productivity and reducing response time.

These templates are available to all agents in the account and can be used in any conversation with a simple shortcut command: just type / followed by the reply code.

  • Shortcode: the shortcut used to trigger the reply (minimum of 2 characters, must be unique)

  1. Click Save. A success message will confirm that the quick reply has been added.

How to Edit or Delete a Quick Reply
