Shared inbox
One place for every DM conversation — bot-handled, human-handled, and the ones in between.
The inbox is where your team lives during a busy launch. Every DM the bot sends, every reply a buyer writes, every handoff to a human — it all lands here.
Anatomy of a conversation
Each conversation card shows:
- Avatar and TikTok handle of the buyer.
- Last message with a timestamp.
- State chip:
Bot,Human,Waiting, orClosed. - Tags the bot or your team added (e.g.
vip,shade-fair,refund). - Triggered by — which automation started the conversation.
Click a card to open the full thread on the right.
States
| State | What it means | Who sees it |
|---|---|---|
Bot | A flow is currently running. The buyer is being asked a question or is between bot messages. | Inbox shows it in All; not in Mine. |
Human | A teammate has taken over. The bot will not send anything else on this conversation. | Whoever assigned themselves owns it. |
Waiting | The buyer hasn't replied to the last bot message. The conversation auto-closes after the wait window expires. | Inbox shows it under Waiting with the remaining time. |
Closed | Resolved, expired, or manually closed. Still searchable, but not in the main view. | All. |
Filters
The top filter bar handles the common views:
- All — every conversation across the workspace.
- Mine — conversations assigned to you.
- Unassigned humans —
Humanstate with no owner. These need attention. - By tag — pick any tag your team uses.
- By trigger — useful for measuring a specific campaign's DM volume.
You can save a filter combination as a view and pin it to the sidebar.
Replying
Once you're in a conversation, the composer at the bottom supports:
- Plain text with emoji.
- Saved replies — your team's macro library, scoped to the workspace. Type
/to search them. - Shop links — paste a TikTok Shop URL and it renders as a card, same as in a flow.
- Internal notes — anything in the
Notetab is visible to teammates but never sent to the buyer.
Pressing Enter sends. Shift + Enter starts a new line.
Search
The top search bar (⌘K / Ctrl K) searches across:
- TikTok handle
- Conversation text
- Tags
- Trigger name
Search is scoped to the current workspace and the last 90 days by default. Click Older to extend.
Notifications
Every teammate controls their own notifications in Settings → Notifications:
- Desktop — browser notification when a conversation in
Minegets a new message. - Mobile — push when a conversation you own goes more than 5 minutes without your reply.
- Email digest — daily summary of unassigned
Humanconversations.
Notification volume is the most common source of inbox fatigue. We recommend everyone on the team enables desktop + mobile for "Mine" only, and one teammate owns the unassigned digest.
