Identifying and Addressing Agent Collision in Zendesk
How can I identify and address agent collision issues in Play mode?
To identify and address agent collision issues in Play mode, you can start by clearing the browser cache and cookies, as Zendesk uses cookies to manage agent presence. Additionally, ensure that the necessary URLs for agent presence are allowed in your network settings.
Long periods of inactivity, agents logged into multiple devices, and manually taking tickets can also contribute to agent collision. Regularly refreshing the view and ensuring agents are using Play mode correctly can help mitigate these issues.
