### **Agent Typing Indicator**

### **Chat History**

Conversation history of all of our live chat login sessions. In order for the chat history to be recorded and retrievable under the same user, the client must log in to the live chat with the same name and phone number for every session.

There is a configurable limit of how many message bubbles are retrievable by the client. The setting is on the **System Settings** page under the **Ticket Configuration** section, Administrator role is required in order to access that page.
