Profiles (permissions) Document Version: V1.6 March 2018
Profiles (permissions) Create profiles with different permission sets for greater role flexibility At LiveEngage we recognize that every brand is unique and employs an individual approach to managing their users. We want to ensure that complex organizations have the flexibility to tailor user roles to the distinct way they run their business. The permissions feature provides brands with the opportunity to fully customize each of the four LiveEngage roles: Agent Agent Manager Campaign Manager Admin Customized profiles Brands are able to create profiles - customized permissions sets within roles. For example, within the Agent role, Senior Agent and Junior Agent profiles can be created, with permission sets enabled or disabled for each profile. For ease and usability, LiveEngage creates a default permission set per role. Brands can customize these sets and also have the option to create new profiles that meet their specific structural business needs. In addition to these configurable permission sets, there is a core set of permissions within each role that cannot be disabled. For the full list, refer to the Appendix. Multiple user roles To ensure small and medium-sized businesses also have flexibility within their user management capabilities, Users can now be assigned more than one role. For example, a manager who also takes chats can be assigned both Agent Manager and Agent roles and a Campaign Manager who also manages users and takes care of account administration can be assigned both Campaign Manager and Admin roles. More control for Agent Managers To further empower Agent Managers, there will be an additional option to grant this role limited user management permissions, including: create/edit users of Agent and Agent Manager roles within their group s structure create/edit Agent groups within group s structure create/edit Agent and Agent Manager s profiles create/edit skills Note: Profiles and Users can only be configured by Admins and Agent Managers with special permissions. To create or customize a profile: 1. In the User tab, select Add Profile. The Edit Profile screen will appear. 2. Select the Role the profile will sit within: Agent, Agent Manager, Campaign Manager or Admin. 3. Give the profile a name, e.g. Senior Agent Manager and add a description (optional). 4. The permissions assigned to the role will appear automatically enabled. Switch the toggles off to disable individual permissions. 5. To return the profile to the default permissions set, click restore defaults. 2
6. Save the profile. To create a user and assign a profile: 1. the Users list, click Add user at the bottom of the page. 2. Type in the user s details. Login name Email address User s name User s nickname (this is the name that will be displayed to visitors in a chat) 3. Under Assignment, select the profile(s) that apply to the user. Up to four profiles can be selected, but only one from within each role. Steps 4 and 5 apply to users with an Agent role profile only: 4. Set the maximum number of chats that the user can accept at any given moment. Consider your agent s capabilities, the number of agents available, etc. 5. For visitors to be routed to the appropriate agent when they initiate a chat, assign the user a skill: Select a skill from the menu by clicking the Skills field and selecting an existing skill, or Create a new skill by typing in the name of the skill in the Skills field 3
Note: Agents who are not assigned to skills can only accept chats originated by engagements that are not assigned to skills. 6. Set a password. Click Save. 4
