Purpose:
Video Sessions enable direct and interactive communication between code users and employees, supporting efficient resolution of service cases and improving collaboration through visual tools.

Key Characteristics:

  • AR Features:
    • Includes tools such as "drawing" and "tracking" to enhance mutual understanding between participants (picture).
  • Accessibility and Visibility:
    • Public by Default:
      • Initially, Video Sessions are public and intended for communication between code users and employees.
      • Public sessions are accessible to both parties and allow for collaboration.
    • Internal Setting:
      • After creation, Video Sessions can be set to internal to hide them from code users.
      • This setting allows employees to retain the session as a service record without deleting it, ensuring it can be referenced later if needed.
  • Recording Option:
    • Video Sessions can be recorded if both parties agree (picture).
    • Recordings of public Video Sessions are accessible to both employees and code users (picture).
  • Screenshot Functionality:
    • Allows participants to take and edit screenshots during the session, for example, to highlight important areas.
    • Screenshots are available to both employees and code users after the session ends (picture).
  • Integration with Tickets:
    • Video Sessions can be linked to tickets for comprehensive documentation of service cases (picture).
  • Status Tracking:
    • Includes a Status Bar to visually represent the current status of the Video Session.
  • Ratings:
    • Code users can rate Video Sessions after completion, providing feedback on service quality (article: Ratings).
  • Creation and Requesting:
    • Employees can create Video Sessions via the Messenger within a ticket. These sessions are automatically linked to the respective ticket (picture).
    • Code users can request Video Sessions, and employees respond to these requests at the appropriate time (picture).
  • Direct Call Feature:
    • Allows code users to initiate a call immediately.
    • This feature is disabled by default and can be enabled as needed.

Benefits:

  • Improved Collaboration: Facilitates real-time communication with visual tools to enhance understanding.
  • Comprehensive Documentation: Screenshots, recordings, and ticket integration ensure all details are documented.
  • Flexible Visibility: The option to set sessions to internal provides a way to retain important records while restricting unnecessary access.
  • Enhanced Service Records: Keeps detailed documentation accessible for future reference or auditing.
  • Flexibility: Supports various use cases, from troubleshooting to customer assistance.
