Significance of Channel Attribute in Zendesk Reports
What is the significance of the Channel attribute in reports?
The Channel attribute in reports is significant because it relates to the channel an agent state is associated with, such as Support, Talk, Messaging, Chat, and Unified. It ensures accurate reporting of time spent in per-channel states.
When adding the State attribute to a report, the Channel attribute must also be included to prevent multiple counting of time spent in states across different channels. This helps in generating precise and meaningful reports.
