Agent Routing and Widget Keys

Woes can route customers to different agents using agent-specific widget keys. This is useful for multi-product support, docs segmentation, or teams with specialized API domains.

Routing Options

Install Pattern

Use the agent’s widget key in the install snippet for that site or page.
Agent widget keys keep configuration separated per surface. Each key can carry its own widget copy, appearance, pre-chat questions, identity verification settings, AI behavior, and attached context.

Examples

Labels In Inbox And Analytics

The agent display name and system color are used throughout the workspace so operators can see which agent handled a conversation. If a conversation only shows the workspace name, confirm the page is using an agent widget key instead of an old workspace-level key.

Verify Routing

  1. Open the page with the installed snippet.
  2. Start a test conversation.
  3. Confirm the conversation shows the expected agent label.
  4. Ask an endpoint-specific question and verify the answer cites the expected source.
  5. Check the same conversation in analytics or filters to confirm the agent label is searchable.
Keep agent names clear. Operators should be able to understand which agent handled a conversation from the inbox, settings selectors, and analytics labels.
