The idea of conversations is to group messages belonging to one theme, time period, request, or interaction in a somewhat flexible or organic way, to be able to use them for further analysis or features.
Properties and behavior:
Every operation in a chat belongs to a conversation
A conversation ties a prospect and an agent or bot
Conversations are not related to WhatsApp sessions
There can only be one active conversation per prospect
A conversation starts when:
a prospect is created via API or manually
a prospect is unarchived (manually or by an action, for example, a new message from the agent or a merge)
a prospect is transferred
A conversation ends when:
a prospect is transferred
an agent closes the conversation
There are some specific close reasons that will not close a conversation: "Waiting for reminder" and "Waiting for a visit" (snooze). When a prospect is transferred, the active conversation is closed and a new conversation starts.
