Get new Freshchat agents ready on day one

When a new agent is added in Freshchat, WebRun creates a Trello checklist card covering channel assignments, working hours, and canned replies, checks off each step as it's completed in Freshchat, and posts a ready confirmation to the support Microsoft Teams channel.

In short

How do I make sure new Freshchat agents are fully set up before taking chats?

WebRun tracks new Freshchat agent onboarding on a Trello checklist card covering channel assignments, working hours, and canned replies, reading each step's real status from Freshchat. Once every item is complete, it posts a ready confirmation to Microsoft Teams, so new agents start taking chats fully configured instead of missing a setup step.

  • New agents never start taking chats with a missing setup step
  • Team leads track onboarding progress on one Trello card instead of asking around
  • The whole team knows the moment a new agent is ready in Teams

Questions, answered

Does WebRun configure the new agent's account itself?

No. It reads the current setup status in Freshchat and tracks progress on a Trello card. Actually assigning channels or hours is still done by your admin.

How does the team know when an agent can start taking chats?

WebRun posts a confirmation to Microsoft Teams only once every checklist item, like channel assignment and working hours, is complete.

What if onboarding stalls halfway through?

The Trello card stays open with the incomplete items visible, so the team lead assigned to the card can see exactly what's left.
