v2026.6.9

Release date: June 25, 2026


✨ New Features

Automatic round-robin distribution (teams)

New per-team configuration to distribute pending conversations among available members, respecting order, schedules, break, and on-call status.

What is it for?

  • Fairly distribute new chats and team transfers across the team
  • Reserve an agent without auto-starting the conversation (pending mode)
  • Start the conversation immediately for the chosen agent (in_progress mode)
  • Apply fallback strategies when no one is available during working hours

How to configure?

  1. Go to SettingsTeams
  2. Edit the team and expand Automatic distribution (Round-robin)
  3. Enable distribution and choose:
    • Auto-attend — starts the conversation (in_progress) for the next agent in queue
    • Reserve agent — keeps pending but already indicates who should attend
  4. Set triggers (new chat, team transfer, agent leave, flow node)
  5. Configure fallback (retry, ignore schedule, on-call, last assigned, least busy, leader, overflow, queue)
  6. Adjust round-robin order and per-member actions (⋮): break, on-call, schedules, include/exclude, set as next

Full guide: Teams — Round-robin

Locked reservation in pending mode

When the team uses Reserve agent, you can define how many minutes the chat stays exclusive to the chosen agent.

Round-robin status on the team card

Each team card shows who was last and who is next in queue, the full order, and current availability.

Admins can use ⋮ → Set as next to manually adjust who receives the next assignment.

Reservation badge in the chat list

Pending conversations with an active reservation show a badge in the list:

  • Reserved for you (indigo) — when you are the reserved agent
  • Reserved · {name} (amber) — for other team members

Tooltip shows expiry time and whether the period is working or off hours.

Round-robin system messages
