📋 What’s about

The Canned Answers are predetermined responses to common and frequent questions: the Agent can use a canned answer triggered by a key rather than typing the same answer repeatedly or pasting it from some other resource.

Using canned answers (when it's appropriate) may increase productivity but even maintain a good level of communication.

Global Canned Answers can be created here and used in several interaction contexts: Open Channel, Mail, SMS, Chat, and so on.

Canned Answers can also be defined as Local to the Channel and to the Account/Website: it means that you can use them only when the conversation takes place in that specific context (Local Canned Answers are available for all Channels Channel entry points, except FAX Accounts)
