Platform [#platform]
# Ops Usage (/docs/ops-usage)
Operations (ops) are the unit of measurement for activity in Wexio. Each action that processes or sends messages consumes ops from your monthly allocation.
What Are Operations? [#what-are-operations]
Your plan includes a monthly ops allocation that resets at the start of each billing cycle. Every message sent or received, every flow card executed, and every CRM sync consumes ops from this allocation.
***
Message Operations [#message-operations]
| Action | Ops Cost |
| ------------------------- | -------- |
| Receive a message | 1 |
| Send a message (manual) | 1 |
| Send a message (bot/flow) | 1 |
| Send a message (AI) | 1 |
***
Flow Card Operations [#flow-card-operations]
When a flow executes, each card that sends a message or performs an action consumes ops.
Basic Cards — 1 op each [#basic-cards--1-op-each]
| Card | Description |
| -------------- | ------------------------------------ |
| Text | Send a text message |
| Button | Send a message with buttons |
| Media | Send a photo or video |
| Audio | Send an audio file |
| Document | Send a document |
| Question | Ask a question and wait for response |
| Flow | Trigger another flow |
| Update Contact | Update a contact profile field |
Advanced Cards — 2 ops each [#advanced-cards--2-ops-each]
| Card | Description |
| --------------- | ---------------------------- |
| Media Button | Message with media + buttons |
| Audio Button | Audio with buttons |
| Document Button | Document with buttons |
| AI Text | AI-generated dynamic content |
| Conditional | Branching logic evaluation |
| Fetch | External API request |
CRM Card — 1 op per field [#crm-card--1-op-per-field]
The CRM Card updates fields in your connected CRM during flow execution. Each field updated costs **1 op**.
| Fields Updated | Ops Cost |
| -------------- | -------- |
| 1 field | 1 |
| 3 fields | 3 |
| 5 fields | 5 |
No-Cost Cards — 0 ops [#no-cost-cards--0-ops]
| Card | Description |
| ----- | ----------------------------------- |
| Note | Internal note (not sent to contact) |
| Ghost | Placeholder for flow structure |
***
CRM Sync Operations [#crm-sync-operations]
CRM import and export operations consume ops based on the number of contacts and field mappings.
| Operation | Formula |
| ------------------- | ------------------------- |
| **Export to CRM** | contacts × (0.2 × fields) |
| **Import from CRM** | contacts × (0.3 × fields) |
Import costs more than export because it requires validation, deduplication, and field transformation. Only successfully synced contacts are charged — failed records don't consume ops.
Export Examples [#export-examples]
| Contacts | Field Mappings | Ops Cost |
| -------- | -------------- | -------- |
| 10 | 30 | 60 |
| 100 | 10 | 200 |
| 500 | 5 | 500 |
Import Examples [#import-examples]
| Contacts | Field Mappings | Ops Cost |
| -------- | -------------- | -------- |
| 100 | 10 | 300 |
| 500 | 20 | 3,000 |
| 1,000 | 30 | 9,000 |
***
AI Ops [#ai-ops]
All AI features — both **AI Auto-Reply** and **AI Copilot** — use a unified token-based billing model. AI usage is tracked as **AI Ops** and counted against your plan's AI limit.
How AI Ops Are Calculated [#how-ai-ops-are-calculated]
```
AI ops consumed = tokens used × token cost rate
```
Token cost rates vary by model tier:
| Model Tier | Rate (per token) | 1,000 tokens = | Example Models |
| ------------ | ---------------- | -------------- | -------------------------- |
| **Economy** | 0.0004 | 0.4 AI ops | GPT-4.1 Mini, GPT-4.1 Nano |
| **Standard** | 0.0008 | 0.8 AI ops | GPT-4.1, Claude Sonnet |
| **Premium** | 0.0015 | 1.5 AI ops | GPT-4.5, O1, Claude Opus |
Example Costs Per Action [#example-costs-per-action]
| Action | Model Tier | \~Tokens | AI Ops |
| ---------------------------- | ---------- | -------- | ------ |
| Fix grammar / simplify text | Economy | \~300 | 0.12 |
| Suggest reply with context | Economy | \~800 | 0.32 |
| Suggest reply with context | Standard | \~800 | 0.64 |
| Summarize conversation | Economy | \~1,500 | 0.6 |
| AI auto-reply (with history) | Economy | \~1,200 | 0.48 |
| Custom prompt (long) | Premium | \~2,000 | 3.0 |
AI Limits by Plan [#ai-limits-by-plan]
AI limits scale with your plan's ops limit:
| Plan | Ops | AI Limit |
| ------------ | --------- | -------- |
| Free | 100 | 0 |
| Standard 10K | 10,000 | 1,000 |
| Standard 80K | 80,000 | 8,000 |
| Pro 10K | 10,000 | 1,000 |
| Pro 1M | 1,000,000 | 100,000 |
| Pro 2M | 2,000,000 | 200,000 |
| Enterprise | Custom | Custom |
What Counts as AI [#what-counts-as-ai]
Both auto-reply and copilot share the same AI ops pool:
* **AI Auto-Reply** — Bot sends AI-generated responses to contacts
* **AI Copilot** — Operators use suggest reply, translate, summarize, tone change, etc.
Assistants using your **own API key** (BYOK) are not counted against your AI limit — you pay the provider directly.
***
Understanding Ops Consumption [#understanding-ops-consumption]
Flow Execution Example [#flow-execution-example]
```
1. Text Card: "Welcome!" → 1 op
2. Button Card: "Choose an option" → 1 op
3. Conditional Card: Check selection → 2 ops
4. Text Card: "You selected X" → 1 op
Total: 5 ops
```
AI Conversation Example [#ai-conversation-example]
```
1. Contact sends message → 1 op (receive)
2. AI generates response → 1 op (send) + AI ops
Total: 2 ops + AI ops
```
Important Notes [#important-notes]
* **Ops are charged when messages are sent** — if a Question Card is waiting for input, ops are charged when the question is displayed, not when the response is processed.
* **Re-processing doesn't double-charge** — if a contact provides invalid input and the same question is shown again, it's only charged once per actual message sent.
* **Failed operations** — if a card fails to execute, ops are not charged for the failure.
***
Ops Limits by Plan [#ops-limits-by-plan]
| Plan | Monthly Ops |
| ---------- | ------------------ |
| Free | 100 |
| Standard | 10,000 – 80,000 |
| Pro | 10,000 – 3,000,000 |
| Enterprise | Custom |
What Happens When You Run Out [#what-happens-when-you-run-out]
* Flows stop executing
* AI responses are disabled
* Manual inbox messages still work (with a warning)
* You can purchase additional ops or upgrade your plan
Do Unused Ops Roll Over? [#do-unused-ops-roll-over]
No — ops reset at the start of each billing cycle.
***
Monitoring Usage [#monitoring-usage]
You can track your ops and AI ops consumption in two places:
Inbox — Live Usage Widget [#inbox--live-usage-widget]
Click the **Usage** button in the bottom-right corner of the inbox to see a live summary of your current usage:
* **Operations** — current ops used out of your plan limit (e.g. 39.50 / 10K)
* **AI Operations** — current AI ops used out of your AI limit (e.g. 64.84 / 1K)
This updates in real time as messages are sent and received.
Settings — Billing Page [#settings--billing-page]
Go to **Settings → Billing** for a full overview of your subscription and usage:
* Plan name and status (Active)
* Renewal date and days remaining
* **Operations** progress bar — used vs. allocation with percentage
* **AI Operations** progress bar — used vs. allocation with percentage
* Change Plan or Cancel Subscription actions
***
Optimizing Ops Usage [#optimizing-ops-usage]
Combine Messages [#combine-messages]
Use one message with multiple lines instead of multiple Text Cards.
```
❌ Inefficient (4 ops):
Text Card → "Hello"
Text Card → "How can I help?"
Text Card → "Please choose:"
Button Card → [Options]
✅ Efficient (1 op):
Button Card → "Hello! How can I help?\nPlease choose:" + [Options]
```
Other Tips [#other-tips]
* **Use conditional logic wisely** — place Conditional Cards strategically to avoid unnecessary message sends
* **Optimize AI usage** — AI responses consume both ops and AI ops; use them where they add the most value
* **Choose the right AI model tier** — Economy models cost significantly less AI ops than Premium models for routine tasks

# Security (/docs/security)
Wexio implements a comprehensive, multi-layered security architecture to protect your data and ensure compliance with global data protection regulations. This page provides an overview of the security measures in place across the platform.
Encryption [#encryption]
Multi-Layered Encryption [#multi-layered-encryption]
All sensitive data in Wexio is encrypted using **AES-256-GCM**, the industry-standard encryption algorithm. The platform uses a per-organisation, per-context key derivation system to ensure maximum security isolation.
**Key derivation** follows [RFC 5869 (HKDF)](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc5869) with SHA-512, meaning each organisation gets unique encryption keys derived from a master secret. This ensures that even if one key were compromised, other organisations and contexts remain protected.
Encryption Contexts [#encryption-contexts]
Different types of sensitive data are encrypted with separate, context-specific keys. See [Integrations](/docs/settings/integrations) for connecting channels and [AI Settings](/docs/settings/ai-settings) for AI provider configuration.
| Context | What's Encrypted |
| --------------- | ------------------------------ |
| AI Integrations | OpenAI, Anthropic API keys |
| Telegram | Bot tokens |
| Viber | Bot tokens |
| Webhooks | Webhook secrets and signatures |
| System AI | System-level AI configuration |
| Authentication | Authentication tokens |
Each encryption operation includes **Additional Authenticated Data (AAD)** binding the ciphertext to its organisation and context, preventing context confusion attacks where encrypted data could be moved between organisations.
Data in Transit [#data-in-transit]
All data transmitted between your browser and Wexio servers is protected by:
* **TLS 1.2 / TLS 1.3** encryption on all connections
* Modern cipher suites only (ECDHE-based)
* Automatic HTTP → HTTPS redirect
* **HSTS** (HTTP Strict Transport Security) with a 1-year max-age
WebSocket connections (used for real-time chat updates) are also encrypted via WSS (WebSocket Secure).
***
Infrastructure Security [#infrastructure-security]
Wexio's infrastructure is hosted on enterprise-grade cloud platforms with robust physical and network security controls. All infrastructure components are deployed in compliance with SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified environments.
| Provider | Role | Region | Certifications |
| ----------------- | ----------------------------------- | ----------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
| **AWS** | Primary cloud infrastructure | EU (Ireland, eu-west-1) | SOC 1/2/3, ISO 27001, ISO 27017, ISO 27018, PCI DSS Level 1 |
| **Vercel** | Edge hosting and serverless compute | EU (Ireland, dub1) | Global CDN with DDoS protection and WAF |
| **MongoDB Atlas** | Managed database | EU (Ireland) | SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001 |
| **Upstash Redis** | Rate limiting, caching, sessions | EU (Ireland) | Encrypted at rest and in transit |
* **Network segmentation** — Production, staging, and development environments are strictly isolated using Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs) with granular security group rules. No direct internet access to backend services.
* **DDoS protection** — Multi-layer DDoS mitigation through AWS Shield and Vercel's edge network with automatic traffic scrubbing and rate limiting at the edge.
* **Continuous monitoring** — Real-time infrastructure monitoring with automated alerting for anomalous activity, resource utilisation, and security events.
***
Network Security [#network-security]
CORS Policy [#cors-policy]
Wexio enforces a strict Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) policy. Only requests from trusted `*.wexio.io` origins and authorised local development servers are accepted — all other origins are rejected.
Security Headers [#security-headers]
The platform sets robust security headers on all responses:
| Header | Purpose |
| --------------------------------- | -------------------------------------- |
| `Strict-Transport-Security` | Forces HTTPS for all future requests |
| `X-Frame-Options: DENY` | Prevents clickjacking attacks |
| `X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff` | Prevents MIME-type confusion attacks |
| `Cross-Origin-Resource-Policy` | Controls cross-origin resource sharing |
WebSocket connections use WSS (encrypted WebSocket) with the same JWT authentication as HTTP requests, preventing unauthenticated real-time connections.
***
Data Isolation & Multi-Tenancy [#data-isolation--multi-tenancy]
All organisations share a common platform by default, with strict logical isolation at the database level. For customers with advanced compliance requirements, Pro and Enterprise plans offer the option to provision a completely dedicated MongoDB database and Redis instance for full physical data separation.
* **Tenant-scoped queries** — A middleware layer automatically injects the authenticated organisation ID into every database operation, preventing cross-tenant data leakage even in the event of application-level bugs.
* **Dedicated database option** — Organisations on Pro and Enterprise plans can migrate to a physically isolated MongoDB instance and/or Redis, with full data migration or fresh-start modes.
* **Environment separation** — Production, staging, and development environments are completely isolated. Testing never uses production data.
* **Organisation deletion cascade** — When an organisation is removed, all associated data (messages, media, integrations, flows, contacts) is permanently deleted across all storage layers.
***
Authentication & Authorization [#authentication--authorization]
Authentication Methods [#authentication-methods]
Wexio supports multiple authentication methods to suit your security requirements. No passwords are stored on the platform — all authentication is handled through secure OAuth 2.0 providers, passkeys, or enterprise SSO. See [Account Security](/docs/account/security) for setup instructions.
| Method | Description |
| ----------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **OAuth 2.0** | Sign in with Google, Microsoft, or GitHub — no password-based authentication exists, eliminating an entire class of credential attacks |
| **Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)** | TOTP-based 30-second codes with 10 one-time recovery codes. Failed login attempts trigger account lockout to prevent brute-force attacks |
| **Passkeys / WebAuthn** | Hardware security key and biometric authentication via the WebAuthn standard, providing phishing-resistant credentials |
| **Enterprise SSO (SAML 2.0)** | Centralised access management through your own identity provider |
Sessions [#sessions]
JWT access tokens (short-lived) with refresh token rotation. Database-backed sessions with 30-day expiry and device fingerprinting, ensuring that each login is tracked and can be individually revoked. Google reCAPTCHA is applied on all public-facing forms for bot detection and abuse prevention.
Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) [#role-based-access-control-rbac]
Every user in an organisation is assigned a role that determines their permissions. See [Team Settings](/docs/settings/team) for role management.
| Role | Capabilities |
| ---------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Owner** | Full access including billing, org deletion, and team management |
| **Admin** | Manage settings, integrations, and team members |
| **Editor** | Manage flows, templates, and content; limited settings access |
| **Agent** | Chat with contacts, view people, limited settings access |
Organisation Isolation [#organisation-isolation]
Every database query is automatically scoped to your organisation — users can never access data from other organisations, ensuring complete data isolation. Every GraphQL resolver is protected by layered guards: JWT authentication, organisation access, chat-level access, role verification, and plan usage limits.
Enterprise SSO (SAML 2.0) [#enterprise-sso-saml-20]
Enterprise organisations can authenticate users through their own Identity Provider using SAML 2.0. See [Account Security](/docs/account/security) for SSO setup.
| Feature | Description |
| --------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Supported IdPs** | Okta, Azure AD (Entra ID), OneLogin, Google Workspace, Auth0, PingFederate |
| **Domain mapping** | Automatic IdP detection based on the user's email domain |
| **SSO enforcement** | Require all org members to authenticate through the configured IdP, disabling direct OAuth login |
| **Auto-provisioning** | New users automatically created on first SSO login with a configurable default role |
| **Account linking** | Existing Wexio accounts (via Google, GitHub, or Microsoft OAuth) can be linked to the organisation's SSO provider |
***
Input Validation & Injection Prevention [#input-validation--injection-prevention]
GraphQL Security [#graphql-security]
All API inputs are validated through multiple layers:
* **Schema-level validation** — Type checking enforced by the GraphQL schema
* **DTO validation** — All input fields validated with strict rules (length limits, format checks, type constraints)
* **Query depth limiting** — Maximum 12 levels of nesting to prevent recursive query abuse
* **Introspection disabled in production** — API schema not exposed to potential attackers
Injection Prevention [#injection-prevention]
* **NoSQL injection** — All user-provided search patterns are escaped before use; no dangerous operators are exposed
* **XSS protection** — HTML content is filtered through strict allowlists, permitting only safe formatting tags
* **Input length limits** — All text inputs have maximum length constraints
Webhook Verification [#webhook-verification]
All incoming webhooks from third-party providers are cryptographically verified. See [Integrations](/docs/settings/integrations) for channel setup.
| Provider | Verification Method |
| --------------- | ------------------------------------------ |
| Stripe | Signature verification with webhook secret |
| WhatsApp / Meta | HMAC-SHA256 signature verification |
| Viber | Token-based verification |
| Telegram | Bot token verification |
***
Rate Limiting & Spam Protection [#rate-limiting--spam-protection]
Wexio implements a comprehensive, multi-layered rate limiting and spam protection system to protect both the platform and your end users from abuse. See [Spam Protection Settings](/docs/settings/inbox/spam-protection) for configuration.
Rate Limiting Layers [#rate-limiting-layers]
| Layer | Scope | Limit | Purpose |
| ------------ | ---------------- | -------------------- | --------------------------- |
| Network | Per IP | 10 req/s, burst 20 | Prevents network-level DDoS |
| Request body | Per request | 10 MB JSON | Prevents oversized payloads |
| File upload | Per request | 10 MB/file, 10 files | Prevents upload abuse |
| API | Per organisation | Tiered limits | Prevents API abuse |
Inbound Spam Protection [#inbound-spam-protection]
When end users send excessive messages to your bots, Wexio automatically:
1. **Throttles** — Silently skips processing for rapid-fire messages while still saving them to chat history
2. **Warns** — Sends a system message asking the user to slow down
3. **Blocks** — Temporarily or permanently blocks the user based on your organisation's settings
Messages from blocked users are still saved to the database for audit purposes — only automated processing (flows, AI) is skipped. Operators can always view the messages.
Message Deduplication [#message-deduplication]
Wexio uses a unique "latest wins" deduplication system. When a user rapidly sends multiple identical messages (e.g., spamming `/start`), only the **last** message is processed — preventing duplicate flow executions and bot responses.
Outbound Spam Protection [#outbound-spam-protection]
The platform protects your end users from accidental message flooding caused by misconfigured flows or infinite loops:
Per-Chat Protection [#per-chat-protection]
* **Loop detection** — If a flow card is visited 5+ times in one execution, the flow is automatically cancelled
* **Message flood cap** — If a single flow execution sends 50+ messages, it's cancelled
* **Rate limiting** — If 30+ messages are sent to one chat within 40 seconds, outbound is paused for that chat
Organisation-Level Escalation [#organisation-level-escalation]
If 3 or more chats trigger outbound violations within 5 minutes, Wexio temporarily blocks all outbound messaging for the entire organisation for 5 minutes:
* All active flows are cancelled
* Inbound messages **continue to arrive** normally (no data loss)
* Operators can still view chats and read messages
* All online org members receive a real-time WebSocket notification
* Outbound automatically resumes after 5 minutes
Organisation-level blocks are designed as a safety net. They automatically expire after 5 minutes, and all block events are persisted for audit purposes.
Spam Protection Settings [#spam-protection-settings]
Each organisation can configure their inbound spam protection behaviour:
| Setting | Options | Default |
| ------------------- | ------------------------------------------------- | --------------- |
| **Spam protection** | Enabled / Disabled | Enabled |
| **Block mode** | Throttle only / Temporary block / Permanent block | Temporary block |
| **Block duration** | 1–60 minutes | 5 minutes |
Rate limit thresholds and outbound protection limits are hardcoded with smart defaults and are not configurable — this ensures consistent protection across all organisations.
API Rate Limits [#api-rate-limits]
Public API endpoints include rate limiting with standard response headers:
```
X-RateLimit-Limit: 200 # Max requests in current window
X-RateLimit-Remaining: 142 # Requests left in current window
X-RateLimit-Reset: 1710453795 # Unix timestamp when window resets
```
When rate limited, the API returns `429 Too Many Requests` with a `Retry-After` header.
***
File Upload Security [#file-upload-security]
All file uploads go through multiple security checks:
| Protection | Description |
| -------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Size limits** | 10 MB per file, 10 files per request |
| **Filename sanitization** | Filenames are sanitized with UUID prefixes and special character replacement |
| **Type validation** | File types are validated against an allowlist |
| **Magic bytes validation** | Actual file content is verified to match the claimed MIME type — prevents disguised executables |
| **Malware scanning** | Files are scanned in real time by AWS GuardDuty. Infected files are automatically quarantined and deleted |
| **Storage isolation** | Files are stored in organisation-scoped folders |
| **Signed URLs** | Downloads use presigned URLs with automatic expiry |
***
Data Retention & GDPR Compliance [#data-retention--gdpr-compliance]
Automatic Data Retention [#automatic-data-retention]
Wexio implements configurable data retention policies that automatically clean up old messages based on your plan and settings. A daily cleanup job runs at 3:00 AM to delete messages older than the configured period. See [Database Settings](/docs/settings/database) for retention configuration.
Retention Limits by Plan [#retention-limits-by-plan]
Retention limits depend on your [plan tier](/docs/settings/billing):
| Plan | Default Retention | Maximum Retention | Configurable |
| -------------- | ----------------- | ----------------- | ------------ |
| **Free** | 7 days | 7 days | No |
| **Standard** | 30 days | 30 days | Yes |
| **Pro** | 90 days | 90 days | Yes |
| **Enterprise** | 180 days | Unlimited | Yes |
Retention Settings [#retention-settings]
Organisations on eligible plans can configure:
* **Message retention period** — How long messages are kept before automatic deletion
* **Media retention** — Whether to follow message retention or set a separate period
* **Delete media with messages** — Automatically remove associated media files when messages are deleted
* **Preserve starred chats** — Keep messages in starred chats regardless of retention policy
GDPR Compliance [#gdpr-compliance]
Wexio is designed with privacy by design and implements key GDPR requirements:
| GDPR Article | Requirement | Implementation |
| ------------ | ---------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------- |
| Art. 5(1)(e) | Storage limitation | Automatic retention cleanup |
| Art. 17 | Right to erasure | Organisation deletion with full data cascade |
| Art. 25 | Privacy by design | Per-organisation encryption keys with context separation |
| Art. 32 | Security of processing | AES-256-GCM encryption for all sensitive data |

# AI (/docs/ai)
Wexio's AI features let you automate conversations, enhance operator productivity, and leverage large language models from OpenAI and Anthropic.
Capabilities [#capabilities]
| Feature | Description |
| --------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| [**AI Assistants**](/docs/ai/assistants) | Configure autonomous AI bots with custom context and knowledge |
| [**AI Actions**](/docs/ai/actions) | Suggest replies, translate, rephrase, generate images, text-to-speech |
| [**Knowledge Base**](/docs/ai/knowledge-base) | Upload documents for domain-specific AI responses |
| [**Flow AI Cards**](/docs/flows/cards#ai) | AI Text, Agent, Classification, and TTS cards in flows |
How AI Works in Wexio [#how-ai-works-in-wexio]
Resolution Chain [#resolution-chain]
When an AI assistant receives a message, it uses a **4-level resolution chain**:
1. **Knowledge base** — Search uploaded documents for relevant information
2. **Conversation context** — Use recent message history for continuity
3. **Assistant instructions** — Follow configured identity, objective, and tone
4. **General model knowledge** — Fall back to the model's training data
Per-Purpose Models [#per-purpose-models]
Configure different AI models for different tasks:
| Purpose | Description |
| ----------------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
| **Chat** | Primary model for conversation replies |
| **Image generation** | Model for creating images (DALL-E, GPT Image, etc.) |
| **Text-to-speech** | Model for voice generation |
| **Audio transcription** | Model for speech-to-text (Whisper) |
| **Vision** | Model for understanding images |
Best Practices [#best-practices]
* **Be specific** in your context — define the tone, knowledge boundaries, and escalation rules
* **Set temperature low** (0.1–0.3) for customer support to get consistent, factual responses
* **Include escalation instructions** — Tell the AI when to hand off to a human operator
* **Upload relevant docs** to the knowledge base for domain-specific accuracy
* **Test thoroughly** before deploying to production conversations
# Knowledge Base (/docs/ai/knowledge-base)
The Knowledge Base allows you to upload documents that your [AI assistant](/docs/ai/assistants) can reference when answering questions, providing accurate and contextual responses grounded in your content.
How It Works [#how-it-works]
1. Upload documents to an assistant's knowledge base
2. When the assistant receives a message, it searches the knowledge base for relevant information
3. Matching content is included as context for generating the response
4. Knowledge base information takes priority over general model knowledge
Uploading Documents [#uploading-documents]
1. Go to **Settings → AI** and select an assistant
2. Navigate to the **Knowledge Base** section
3. Click **Upload**
4. Select one or more files
5. Documents are processed and indexed automatically
Supported Formats [#supported-formats]
| Format | Description |
| ------------ | --------------------------- |
| **PDF** | Documents, manuals, guides |
| **TXT** | Plain text files |
| **Markdown** | `.md` files with formatting |
Resolution Priority [#resolution-priority]
When answering questions, the assistant checks sources in this order:
1. **Knowledge base** (highest priority)
2. **Conversation context**
3. **Assistant instructions**
4. **General model knowledge** (lowest priority)
Managing Documents [#managing-documents]
| Action | Description |
| ------------- | ------------------------------------------- |
| **View** | See all uploaded documents and their status |
| **Delete** | Remove a document from the knowledge base |
| **Re-upload** | Replace a document with an updated version |
Best Practices [#best-practices]
* **Upload comprehensive documentation** — Product docs, FAQs, policy documents
* **Keep documents up-to-date** — Remove outdated files and upload new versions
* **Use clear formatting** — Well-structured documents produce better search results
* **Organize by topic** — Upload focused documents rather than one massive file
Knowledge base processing may take a few minutes for large documents. Once processed, the assistant can immediately reference the content.
# AI Providers (/docs/ai/providers)
Wexio supports multiple AI providers. You need to connect at least one before [creating an AI assistant](/docs/ai/assistants).
Supported Providers [#supported-providers]
OpenAI [#openai]
Connect your OpenAI account to use GPT models, DALL-E, Whisper, and TTS.
**Setup:**
1. Go to **Settings → Integrations**
2. Find **OpenAI** and click **Connect**
3. Enter your OpenAI API key
4. Save
**Capabilities:**

Anthropic does not support image generation, text-to-speech, or audio transcription. Use OpenAI for those capabilities.
Wexio automatically fetches the full list of models from each provider's API, so new models are available as soon as the provider releases them — no update required.
API keys are managed in [Settings → Integrations → AI Providers](/docs/settings/integrations/ai-providers).
Choosing a Provider [#choosing-a-provider]
| Factor | OpenAI | Anthropic |
| -------------------- | -------------------------------------- | ------------------------------ |
| **Best for** | Full-featured AI (chat, images, audio) | Nuanced conversations |
| **Chat models** | All available OpenAI models | All available Anthropic models |
| **Image generation** | ✅ | ❌ Not supported |
| **Text-to-speech** | ✅ | ❌ Not supported |
| **Transcription** | ✅ | ❌ Not supported |
You can connect both providers and use different ones for different assistants.
# Flows (/docs/flows)
**Flows** is Wexio's visual automation builder that lets you create powerful workflows without writing code.
Overview [#overview]
Flows use a node-based canvas where you connect triggers, conditions, and actions to automate customer interactions. Each flow is a directed graph of **cards** (nodes) that execute in sequence, built on top of a modular execution engine.
Getting Started [#getting-started]
1. Navigate to **Flows** from the sidebar
2. Click **Create Flow**
3. Give your flow a name and description
4. You'll be taken to the [visual flow editor](/docs/flows/editor)
Flow Lifecycle [#flow-lifecycle]
Every flow follows a **Draft → Published** lifecycle:
| State | Description |
| ------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Draft** | Edits happen here — the bot does **not** execute this state |
| **Published** | An immutable snapshot of the draft, actively running |
Editing a published flow is always safe — your changes stay in the draft and never affect live bot execution until you explicitly publish again. Each publish creates a new [version](/docs/flows/editor/version-history) and an entry in the [activity log](/docs/flows/editor/version-history#activity-log).
When you unpublish a flow, the bot stops triggering it. Your draft, version history, and activity log are all preserved — you can re-publish at any time.
Flow Management [#flow-management]
The flows list page shows all your automations:
| Column | Description |
| ----------------- | -------------------------------------- |
| **Name** | Flow identifier |
| **Status** | Published (active) or Draft (inactive) |
| **Trigger** | What starts the flow |
| **Last modified** | When it was last updated |
| **Created by** | Who created the flow |
Quick Actions [#quick-actions]
| Action | Description |
| ----------------------- | ------------------------------- |
| **Edit** | Open the flow editor |
| **Duplicate** | Create a copy of the flow |
| **Publish / Unpublish** | Activate or deactivate the flow |
| **Delete** | Remove the flow permanently |
How Execution Works [#how-execution-works]
When a flow is published and a trigger fires:
1. The execution engine loads the **published snapshot** (not the draft)
2. A new execution context is created with [variables](/docs/flows/editor/variables) (contact, chat, system, org)
3. Cards execute in sequence following the connection paths
4. When a card requires user input (e.g., [Question](/docs/flows/cards/question), [Button](/docs/flows/cards/button)), the flow pauses and waits
5. On user reply, the flow resumes from where it left off
6. The flow completes when it reaches a card with no outgoing connection, or when the [execution timeout](/docs/flows/settings) expires
Timeouts [#timeouts]
Each flow has a configurable execution timeout (default: 5 minutes). If the flow doesn't complete within this time, it's automatically terminated. [Sub-flows](/docs/flows/cards/sub-flow) have their own independent timeout (default: 1 minute).
Strict Mode [#strict-mode]
When strict mode is enabled in [flow settings](/docs/flows/settings), the flow stops on any card error instead of silently continuing. You can configure a custom error message shown to the contact.
Use Cases [#use-cases]
* **Welcome messages** — Automatically greet new contacts
* **Auto-assignment** — Route conversations to the right team member
* **Follow-ups** — Send reminders after a period of inactivity
* **Data collection** — Ask questions and save responses to contact fields
* **Lead qualification** — Classify and score leads with AI
* **Support automation** — Handle common requests with [AI agents](/docs/flows/cards/ai-agent)
* **Escalation** — Route complex issues to senior operators via [Assign Operator](/docs/flows/cards/assign-operator)
* **CRM sync** — Push contact data to external CRM systems

The onboarding wizard guides you through the initial setup of your Wexio workspace. It walks you through creating your organisation, connecting a messaging channel, and choosing a plan.
Step 1: Create Organisation [#step-1-create-organisation]
The first step is creating your organisation — your workspace where all team members, conversations, and automations live.
Fill in the following fields:
| Field | Required | Description |
| --------------------- | -------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Organisation Name** | Yes | A descriptive name for your team or business |
| **Organisation URL** | Yes | A URL-friendly slug (auto-generated from name, editable). Only lowercase letters, numbers, `-` and `_` allowed |
| **Organisation Type** | Yes | Select the type of organisation |
| **Business Type** | Yes | Select your industry |
| **Work Email** | Yes | Pre-filled from your account email |
| **Country** | Yes | Searchable country selector |
| **Website** | No | Your company website URL |
Click **Create Organisation** to proceed.
Step 2: Connect a Bot [#step-2-connect-a-bot]
After creating your organisation, you'll be prompted to connect a messaging channel. Currently, **Telegram** is the primary supported channel — WhatsApp, Viber, and Instagram are coming soon.
Connecting Telegram [#connecting-telegram]
1. Open [@BotFather](https://t.me/BotFather) on Telegram
2. Send the `/newbot` command and follow the prompts
3. Copy the **bot token** provided by BotFather
4. Paste it into the **Bot Token** field
5. Click **Connect Bot**
You can **skip** this step and connect a bot later from [Settings → Integrations](/docs/settings/integrations).
Step 3: Choose Your Plan [#step-3-choose-your-plan]
Select a billing plan that fits your needs. Wexio offers plans from Free to Enterprise — view full pricing details at [wexio.io/pricing](https://wexio.io/pricing).
Free Plan [#free-plan]
If you choose the **Free** plan, it activates instantly — no payment details required. You'll be redirected straight to your Inbox and can upgrade anytime from [Settings → Billing](/docs/settings/billing).
Paid Plans [#paid-plans]
If you choose a paid plan, you'll be asked to add your payment details. All payments are securely processed through [Stripe](https://stripe.com). Every paid plan includes a **free trial** period so you can explore all features before being charged.
Enter your card details and click **Start Free Trial** to proceed.
You can cancel or change your plan at any time from [Settings → Billing](/docs/settings/billing).
Step 4: Done! [#step-4-done]
Once you've completed the wizard, you'll be redirected to your [Inbox](/docs/inbox) where you can start managing conversations.

# Collections (/docs/inbox/collections)
Collections are saved filter configurations that create custom views of your inbox. They appear in the left sidebar for one-click access to specific groups of conversations.
Default Collections [#default-collections]
Every workspace comes with built-in collections:
| Collection | Description |
| ------------------ | ------------------------------------------ |
| **All Chats** | Every conversation across all channels |
| **Assigned to Me** | Chats assigned to the current user |
| **Blocked** | Conversations marked as blocked |
| **Urgent** | Conversations flagged as urgent |

| **Edit** | Custom collections only | Update name, description, icon, and filter rules |
| **Delete** | Custom collections only | Remove the collection |
Deleting a collection does not delete the conversations within it — they remain accessible in "All Chats".
Teammates [#teammates]
The sidebar also shows your teammates and their online status, so you can quickly see who's available for reassignment.
Real-time Updates [#real-time-updates]
Collections update in real time — chat counts refresh as conversations are added or removed based on filter criteria.
# Inbox (/docs/inbox)
The Inbox is the heart of Wexio — a unified hub where all customer messages from connected channels appear in real time.
Overview [#overview]
When you navigate to **Inbox**, you'll see a three-panel layout:
* **Left sidebar** — Collections, teammate statuses, and navigation
* **Center panel** — Chat list with search, filters, and unread counts
* **Right panel** — Active conversation thread with message input and contact profile
Layout [#layout]
The inbox uses a responsive layout that adapts to your screen size. On mobile, panels stack vertically with swipe navigation.
Collections Sidebar [#collections-sidebar]
The left sidebar shows your [chat collections](/docs/inbox/collections) — custom filtered views of your conversations. Built-in collections include **All Chats**, **Assigned to Me**, **Unassigned**, **Urgent**, and **Blocked**. You can create custom collections with [filter rules](/docs/inbox/search).
Chat List [#chat-list]
The center panel shows conversations matching the current collection. Each item displays:
* Contact name and avatar
* Last message preview with timestamp

* Channel provider icon (Telegram, WhatsApp, etc.)
Real-time subscriptions keep the list updated as new messages arrive, statuses change, or chats are reassigned.
Chat View [#chat-view]
The right panel opens when you select a conversation, showing the full [message thread](/docs/inbox/chat/messages), [input editor](/docs/inbox/chat/editor), and [AI controls](/docs/inbox/chat/ai-bar).
Chat Status [#chat-status]
Each conversation has a status to help you track progress:
| Status | Color | Description |
| --------------- | ------ | ----------------------------------- |
| **Pending** | Yellow | New conversation awaiting response |
| **In Progress** | Blue | Actively being handled |
| **Resolved** | Green | Issue resolved, conversation closed |
| **Closed** | Gray | Manually closed by operator |
| **Issue** | Red | Flagged for follow-up |
Priority Levels [#priority-levels]
Mark conversations as **Low**, **Medium**, or **High** priority to ensure critical issues surface first.
Operator Assignment [#operator-assignment]
Assign conversations to specific team members. View all chats assigned to you via the **"Assigned to me"** collection.
Chat Actions [#chat-actions]
Use the action menu on a conversation for:
* **Assign operator** — Route to a team member

* **AI Active** — An [AI assistant](/docs/ai) is responding
* **Flow running** — An [automation flow](/docs/flows) is in progress
24-Hour Window [#24-hour-window]
For channels like WhatsApp, Instagram, and Viber, there's a 24-hour messaging window. Once a user replies, all messages within that 24-hour session are free. After the window expires:
* **WhatsApp & Instagram** — Outbound messages are blocked. You must use [approved templates](/docs/inbox/chat/editor/templates) to re-initiate contact.
* **Viber** — You can send a new initiated message, but it is a paid outbound message.
# Contact Profile (/docs/inbox/profile)

# Database (/docs/settings/database)
The Database page shows the current state of your organisation's data infrastructure and lets you connect dedicated MongoDB and Redis instances.
Dedicated database infrastructure requires the **Pro** or **Enterprise** plan. Only workspace **Owners** can configure database settings.
Overview [#overview]
By default, every organisation runs on Wexio's shared platform infrastructure. The Database page displays your current status:
| Infrastructure | Default | Description |
| -------------------- | ------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **MongoDB Database** | Shared | Stores all your chats, messages, contacts, flows, and configuration |
| **Redis Cache** | Shared | Handles caching, sessions, and real-time features |
You can see the total **document count** for your organisation and the connection status of each service.
***
Dedicated Database Infrastructure [#dedicated-database-infrastructure]
Isolate your organisation's data onto dedicated MongoDB and Redis instances for enhanced performance, security, and compliance.
Benefits [#benefits]
| Benefit | Description |
| --------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Complete Data Isolation** | Your data lives in its own database instance, fully separated from other organisations |
| **Dedicated Performance** | No noisy neighbours — get consistent, predictable query performance and throughput |
| **Custom Regions** | Choose where your data lives. Deploy to any supported cloud region for compliance |
| **Enhanced Security** | Bring your own encryption keys, network policies, and access controls |
***
Connecting a Dedicated Database [#connecting-a-dedicated-database]
1. Go to **Settings → Database**.
2. Click **Connect**.
3. Choose a **migration mode** (see below).
4. Enter your **MongoDB connection URI**.
5. Optionally enter a **Redis connection URL**.
6. Choose what to do with data in the source database after migration.
7. Click **Connect** to start the migration.
Migration Modes [#migration-modes]
When moving to a dedicated database, choose how to handle your existing data:
| Mode | What's Copied | Best For |
| ----------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------- |
| **Migrate** | All data — chats, messages, contacts, flows, media, and configuration | Existing organisations with data to preserve |
| **Fresh** | System configuration only — labels, custom fields, collections, AI settings, bots, integrations | New setups or starting clean |
Source Data Action [#source-data-action]
After migration completes, choose what happens to your data in the original (shared) database:
| Action | Description |
| ---------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Delete** | Remove your organisation's data from the shared database after migration (recommended — prevents duplication) |
| **Keep** | Leave a copy in the shared database as a backup |
Migration duration depends on your data volume. During migration, your workspace remains operational but may experience brief interruptions.
***
Connection Requirements [#connection-requirements]
Both MongoDB and Redis can be configured independently. You only need to provide the connection URIs.
Go to **Database → Connect → Drivers** in your Atlas dashboard and copy the connection string. Replace the password placeholder with your database user's password.
```
mongodb+srv://user:pass@cluster0.xxxxx.mongodb.net/dbname
```
See [Atlas Connection Docs](https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/driver-connection/) for details.
Use a standard MongoDB connection string. Ensure the server is accessible from Wexio's platform and has authentication enabled.
```
mongodb://user:pass@host:27017/dbname?authSource=admin
```
Copy the `redis://` endpoint from your Upstash console. Upstash provides serverless Redis with global replication.
```
redis://default:xxxxx@us1-xxxxx.upstash.io:6379
```
See [Upstash Getting Started](https://upstash.com/docs/redis/overall/getstarted) for details.
Use the primary endpoint from your cluster. Ensure the security group allows inbound access from Wexio's platform IP addresses.
```
redis://user:pass@cluster.xxxxx.cache.amazonaws.com:6379
```
Connection URIs are **encrypted at rest** and never displayed after submission. Ensure your database allows connections from Wexio's platform IP addresses.
***
Connection Status [#connection-status]
After connecting, the Database page shows the health of each service:
| Status | Meaning |
| ---------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Shared** | Organisation uses the shared platform infrastructure (no dedicated instance) |
| **Connected** | Dedicated instance is configured and healthy (latency displayed in ms) |
| **Disconnected** | Dedicated instance is configured but unreachable — check your connection URI and network access |
Use the **Refresh** button to re-check connection health and update document counts at any time.
***
Data Collections [#data-collections]
The Database page shows a breakdown of your data across MongoDB collections, split into two categories:
System Collections [#system-collections]
Configuration data that defines your workspace setup:
| Collection | Description |
| ------------------------ | -------------------------------- |
| Labels | Organisation labels |
| Chat collections | Inbox collections |
| People field definitions | Custom contact field definitions |
| AI assistants | AI assistant configuration |
| Bots | Messaging bot configuration |
| Integrations | Channel integrations |
| WhatsApp templates | WhatsApp template configuration |
Operational Collections [#operational-collections]
Day-to-day data generated through usage:
| Collection | Description |
| ---------- | -------------------- |
| Chats | Conversations |
| Messages | Chat messages |
| People | Contacts |
| Flows | Automation flows |
| Cards | Flow cards |
| Media | Uploaded media files |
Each collection shows its **document count** and **accessibility status**. The total document count is displayed at the top.
***
Migrating Back to Shared [#migrating-back-to-shared]
If you need to revert to the shared platform database:
1. Go to **Settings → Database**.
2. Click **Migrate Back to Shared**.
3. Choose the **source data action** — whether to keep or delete your data from the dedicated database after migration.
4. Confirm the action.
If you choose **Delete**, your data will be removed from the dedicated database after migration. This cannot be undone.
Your organisation's data will be copied back to the shared platform and the dedicated connection will be removed.

# Settings (/docs/settings)
The Settings panel lets you configure every aspect of your Wexio workspace — from general preferences to security, team management, and integrations.
Settings Sections [#settings-sections]
Access [#access]
Settings are available from the sidebar. Click the **gear icon** or navigate to **Settings**.
Most settings require **Admin** or **Owner** role. Editors and Agents cannot access workspace settings.
# Labels (/docs/settings/labels)
Labels are applied directly to **messages**, making it easy to categorise and filter individual messages across your inbox.
Creating Labels [#creating-labels]
1. Go to **Settings → Labels**
2. Click **Create Label**
3. Enter:
* **Name** — label text (e.g. "VIP", "Bug Report", "Sales Lead")
* **Color** — visual identifier
Using Labels [#using-labels]
1. Open a conversation in the inbox
2. Click the **Label** icon on a message
3. Select one or more labels
4. Labels appear as colored badges on the message
Because labels are attached to messages (not conversations), you can label specific messages within a chat — for example, marking a single message as important while leaving the rest unlabelled.
System Labels [#system-labels]
Some labels are applied automatically by the system:
| Label | Applied when |
| ------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Media** | The message contains an image, video, document, or audio file |
| **Question** | The contact is asking a question |
System labels cannot be edited or archived.
Filtering by Label [#filtering-by-label]
Use labels to filter messages in the inbox:
* Click a label in the filter bar to show only messages with that label
* Combine labels with other filters (status, assignee) for more precise views
Managing Labels [#managing-labels]
The labels page has two tabs:
* **Active** — labels currently in use
* **Archived** — labels that have been deactivated but not deleted
Each label in the table shows:
| Column | Description |
| ----------- | --------------------------------------- |
| **Label** | Name and color |
| **Active** | Toggle to activate or archive the label |
| **Created** | When the label was created |
| **Updated** | When the label was last modified |
| **Actions** | Edit the label |
Archiving [#archiving]
Toggle a label's **Active** switch off to move it to the **Archived** tab. Archived labels are no longer available for selection in the inbox, but messages that already have the label keep it.
Toggle it back on to reactivate the label.
Editing [#editing]
* **Edit** — change the name or color of a label
Labels are workspace-wide — all team members see and use the same label set.

# Messages (/docs/settings/messages)
Configure how long messages are stored and when they are automatically cleaned up.
Data Retention [#data-retention]
Automatic data retention policies delete messages older than the configured retention period. Cleanup runs daily via a scheduled cron job at **3:00 AM**.
Dashboard [#dashboard]
At the top of the page you'll see a summary of your retention status:
| Metric | Description |
| ------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Days retention** | Your current retention period |
| **At risk** | Number of messages that will be deleted at the next cleanup |
| **Oldest message** | How old your oldest stored message is |
| **Next cleanup** | When the next automatic cleanup will run |
Retention Period [#retention-period]
| Setting | Description |
| ------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Unlimited Retention** | Keep all messages forever — no automatic cleanup. Available on **Enterprise** plan only |
| **Retention days** | Number of days to keep messages (e.g. 30 days). Messages older than this are deleted at the next cleanup |
| **Delete media with messages** | Also remove attached files (images, documents, audio, video) when messages are deleted |
| **Preserve starred chats** | Keep messages in starred chats regardless of retention period |
Retention Limits by Plan [#retention-limits-by-plan]
| Plan | Default | Maximum | Configurable |
| -------------- | -------- | --------- | ------------ |
| **Free** | 7 days | 7 days | No |
| **Standard** | 30 days | 30 days | Yes |
| **Pro** | 90 days | 90 days | Yes |
| **Enterprise** | 180 days | Unlimited | Yes |
On the **Free** plan the retention period is fixed and cannot be changed. Upgrade to **Standard** or higher to configure your own retention period.
Cleanup Process [#cleanup-process]
When the daily cleanup runs, the system:
1. Calculates the effective retention period based on your settings and plan limits
2. Finds all messages older than the cutoff date
3. Deletes associated media files (if **Delete media with messages** is enabled)
4. Deletes message reactions
5. Removes the messages
Deleted messages and media cannot be recovered.

# People (/docs/settings/people)
Manage the profile fields that appear on each contact, control their visibility, and create custom fields.
System Profile [#system-profile]
System fields are built-in fields that exist on every contact. You **cannot delete** system fields, but you can:
* **Reorder** them by dragging
* **Toggle privacy** (Visible / Hidden)
* **Set a default value** on select fields (`Is valid`, `Is blocked`, `AI available`)
Privacy [#privacy]
Each field can be set to **Visible** or **Hidden**:
* **Visible** — the full value is shown in the UI
* **Hidden** — the value is masked (e.g. `va******@****l.com`) so that sensitive data is not exposed to all team members

# Security Settings (/docs/settings/security)
Security settings are only available on the **Enterprise** plan.
Enterprise SSO (SAML 2.0) [#enterprise-sso-saml-20]
Configure Single Sign-On for your organisation using SAML 2.0. This allows your team to authenticate through your Identity Provider (Okta, Azure AD, Google Workspace, OneLogin, Auth0, PingFederate, etc.).
How It Works [#how-it-works]
1. User clicks **Sign in with SSO** or enters an email with a configured SSO domain
2. Wexio redirects the user to your Identity Provider
3. The user authenticates with your IdP
4. The IdP sends a SAML response back to Wexio
5. Wexio validates the response, creates or links the user, and starts a session
Basic Settings [#basic-settings]
| Field | Description |
| ----------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Display Name** | A friendly name for this SSO configuration (e.g. "Company Okta SSO") |

Identity Provider Settings [#identity-provider-settings]
| Field | Description |
| ------------------------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **IdP Entity ID (Issuer)** | Your Identity Provider's entity identifier URL |
| **IdP SSO URL (Login URL)** | The SAML login endpoint of your IdP |
| **IdP SLO URL (Optional - Single Logout)** | The SAML logout endpoint for single logout support |
| **IdP X.509 Certificate (PEM format)** | The public certificate from your IdP used to verify SAML response signatures |
Advanced Settings [#advanced-settings]
| Setting | Description |
| --------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Require all users to authenticate via SSO** | When enabled, all organisation members must log in through SSO. Password and social logins are disabled |
| **Allow account linking** | Existing users can link their accounts to SSO |
| **Auto-create users** | Create new users automatically on first SSO login |
| **Default role** | The role assigned to auto-created users (e.g. Member) |
Setup Steps [#setup-steps]
1. Go to **Settings → Security**
2. Fill in the **Basic Settings** — display name and email domains
3. Enter your **Identity Provider Settings** — Entity ID, SSO URL, SLO URL, and X.509 certificate from your IdP
4. Configure **Advanced Settings** as needed

Troubleshooting [#troubleshooting]
| Issue | Solution |
| ------------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Invalid SAML response** | Verify the IdP certificate is correct and in PEM format. Check for clock skew between servers |
| **Email domain not allowed** | Verify the domain is listed in **Email Domains** (check for typos like `.com` vs `.co`) |
| **User not created on login** | Ensure **Auto-create users** is enabled in Advanced Settings |
| **Existing user can't link** | Ensure **Allow account linking** is enabled in Advanced Settings |
| **SSO not appearing at login** | Verify the SSO configuration status is active and email domains are configured |
If you downgrade from Enterprise, SSO is automatically disabled and team members revert to standard authentication.

# Bulk Operations (/docs/people/bulk-operations)
Wexio supports bulk export and import of contacts through [CRM integrations](/docs/settings/integrations/crm). Access bulk operations from the **People** page via the **Export** and **Import** buttons.
Export to CRM [#export-to-crm]
Push contacts from Wexio to your connected CRM ([HubSpot](/docs/settings/integrations/crm#hubspot), [Salesforce](/docs/settings/integrations/crm#salesforce), [BigQuery](/docs/settings/integrations/crm#bigquery)).
Steps [#steps]
1. Click **Export** on the People page
2. Select the target CRM integration
3. Optionally filter which contacts to export:
* **Search** by name, email, phone
* **Advanced Filters** — build conditions on any field (e.g. Wexio ID contains, Chat Status equals)
* **Bot filter** — only export people from a specific bot (useful with multiple bots)
4. Start the export
Filtering [#filtering]
You can export:
* **All people** — no filter applied
* **Filtered subset** — apply search and/or advanced filters before exporting
Advanced filters support the same operators as the [People table](/docs/people#filtering) — combine multiple conditions on any system or custom field.
Make sure [field mappings](/docs/settings/integrations/crm) are configured before exporting. Only mapped fields will be synced to the CRM.
Import from CRM [#import-from-crm]
Pull contacts from your CRM into Wexio.
Steps [#steps-1]
1. Click **Import** on the People page
2. Select the source CRM integration
3. Optionally associate a bot (see below)
4. Optionally set a record limit
5. Start the import
Bot Association [#bot-association]
Associate imported contacts with a messaging bot to enable matching by channel-specific IDs (e.g. `telegram_id`, `username`). Without a bot association, records are matched using:
1. **CRM Record ID** — native CRM ID if the contact was previously synced
2. **Wexio ID** — internal ID stored in the CRM
With a bot selected, additional matching keys become available (e.g. `telegram_id`, `email`, custom field).
Record Limit [#record-limit]
Set a maximum number of contacts to import. Leave empty for no limit.
Make sure [field mappings](/docs/settings/integrations/crm) are configured before importing. Only mapped fields will be synced from the CRM.
File Export [#file-export]
Export contacts as a downloadable file from the People page:
* Formats: CSV, Excel, JSON
* Modes: Selected contacts, all contacts, or filtered results
File exports appear in the [Jobs → File Exports](/docs/people/jobs) tab with a download link that expires after 1 day.
Bulk Delete [#bulk-delete]
Select multiple contacts with checkboxes on the [People](/docs/people) table, then click **Delete** to remove them in bulk (requires permission).
Job Tracking [#job-tracking]
All export and import operations run as background jobs. Track progress and results in [People → Jobs](/docs/people/jobs).
# CRM Sync (/docs/people/crm-sync)
Wexio can synchronize contact data bidirectionally with external CRM systems, keeping your customer data consistent across platforms.
Overview [#overview]
CRM Sync connects your Wexio contacts with an external CRM (like HubSpot, Salesforce, or custom solutions):
* **Push** — Send Wexio contact data to your CRM
* **Pull** — Import CRM data into Wexio contact fields
* **Bidirectional** — Keep both systems in sync continuously
Setup [#setup]
1. Connect your CRM in [Settings → Integrations](/docs/settings/integrations/crm)
2. Configure field mappings (which Wexio fields map to which CRM fields)
3. Enable sync direction (push, pull, or both)
4. Set sync frequency
Field Mapping [#field-mapping]
Map Wexio fields to CRM fields:
| Wexio Field | CRM Field |
| ------------- | --------------------- |
| First name | first\_name |
| Last name | last\_name |
| Email | email\_address |
| Phone | phone\_number |
| Custom fields | Custom CRM properties |
Sync Modes [#sync-modes]
| Mode | Description |
| ----------------- | ----------------------------------------- |
| **Push only** | Wexio → CRM |
| **Pull only** | CRM → Wexio |
| **Bidirectional** | Both directions, with conflict resolution |
Bulk Operations [#bulk-operations]
CRM sync integrates with [bulk operations](/docs/people/bulk-operations):
* **Bulk export** — Export selected contacts to CRM
* **Bulk import** — Import CRM contacts into Wexio
* Background processing via job queue for large datasets
Operations Cost [#operations-cost]
CRM sync operations consume ops based on the number of records processed. See [Ops Usage](/docs/ops-usage) for the formula.
CRM Sync runs in the background using a job queue (BullMQ), so large sync operations don't block the UI.
# People (/docs/people)
The **People** section is your customer relationship database — a central place to manage all contacts who interact with your business through any connected channel.
Table [#table]
The People table displays all contacts with powerful data management features.
Columns [#columns]
Configure which columns are visible via the **Columns** button:
* Toggle individual column visibility
* Pin columns to left or right (up to 3 per side)
* Name, CRM status, and actions are always visible
* Column preferences are saved per workspace
Search [#search]
The search bar performs full-text search across contact fields with instant results.
Filtering [#filtering]
**Quick filters** appear as dropdowns above the table:
* **Messages** — Filter by message count
* **Language** — Contact's preferred language
* **Chat Status** — Pending, In Progress, Resolved, Closed, Issue
* **Chat Category** — Support, Sales, Feedback, General, Inquiry
* **Priority** — Low, Medium, High, Urgent
**Advanced filters** open a multi-condition filter builder with operators per field type:
| Field type | Operators |
| -------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Text** | Equals, Contains, Not contains, Starts with, Ends with, Is empty, Is not empty |
| **Number** | Equals, Greater than, Less than, Greater or equal, Less or equal, Is empty |
| **Date** | Equals, Before, After, Between, Is empty, Is not empty |
| **Boolean** | Equals, Is empty |
| **Enum/Array** | In, Not in, Is empty, Is not empty |
Sorting [#sorting]
Click any column header to sort ascending or descending. Sort state persists in the URL.
Pagination [#pagination]
* Page sizes: 10, 25, 50, 100
* Virtual scrolling for smooth navigation
System Fields [#system-fields]
Every contact has built-in system fields (38 by default). Click a contact row to open the profile sidebar:
Identity [#identity]
| Field | Description |
| ---------------- | ------------------------------ |
| **Wexio ID** | Unique ID in Wexio (read-only) |

# Flow Templates (/docs/templates)
Templates let you use pre-built flows and share your own automations with the Wexio community.
Overview [#overview]
Flow templates are pre-configured automation workflows that you can import into your workspace with a single click. Instead of building flows from scratch, start with a template and customize it to your needs.
Browsing Templates [#browsing-templates]
Navigate to **Templates** from the sidebar to see the public template gallery.
Each template card shows:
* **Name** and description
* **Author** who published it
* **Category** and tags
* **Preview** of the flow structure
Using a Template [#using-a-template]
1. Browse the template gallery
2. Click on a template to see its details and preview
3. Click **Use Template**
4. The flow is imported into your workspace as a new draft flow
5. Customize the nodes, triggers, and settings to fit your use case
Imported templates create a new flow in your workspace. The original template is not modified.
Organisation Templates [#organisation-templates]
Your workspace can also have private templates visible only to team members:
* Navigate to **Templates → Private** to see organisation-specific templates
* Create templates from existing flows to standardize automations across your team
# Publishing Templates (/docs/templates/publishing)
Turn your flows into templates that your team or the community can reuse.
Creating a Template [#creating-a-template]
1. Go to **Templates → Create**
2. Fill in the template details:
* **Name** — Descriptive title
* **Slug** — URL-friendly identifier
* **Description** — Explain what the flow does and when to use it
* **Category** — Select the appropriate category
3. Configure the flow content
4. Choose visibility: **Public** (visible to everyone) or **Private** (organisation only)
5. Submit for review
Editing Templates [#editing-templates]
1. Go to **Templates** and find your template
2. Click **Edit**
3. Update the name, description, or flow content
4. Save changes
Template Visibility [#template-visibility]
| Visibility | Who can see it |
| ----------- | --------------------------------------- |
| **Public** | All Wexio users in the template gallery |
| **Private** | Only members of your workspace |
Public templates may go through a review process before appearing in the gallery.
# Custom Prompt (/docs/ai/actions/custom-prompt)
The Custom Prompt action lets you write any instruction for the AI to follow. Unlike other text actions, it includes full conversation context — chat history and contact profile — so the AI can reference the entire conversation.
How to Use [#how-to-use]
1. Open AI Actions → **Custom Prompt**
2. Enter your custom instruction
3. The AI processes your instruction with full conversation context
4. The result streams into the editor in real-time
Example Prompts [#example-prompts]
| Prompt | Effect |
| ------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------- |
| "Draft a follow-up email about the refund" | Creates a follow-up based on conversation |
| "List all product names mentioned in this conversation" | Extracts information from chat history |
| "Write an apology for the shipping delay" | Generates context-aware apology |
| "Extract the customer's order number and address" | Pulls data from messages |
| "Rewrite as a numbered list" | Converts content to numbered steps |
| "Turn into bullet points" | Restructures as bulleted list |
Context Included [#context-included]
* **Chat history** — Recent messages labeled as customer or operator (system messages excluded)
* **Contact profile** — Customer profile fields are always included
* **Knowledge base** — Documents uploaded to the assistant
* **Channel formatting** — Response is formatted for the channel (Telegram HTML, WhatsApp markdown, or plain text)
Any `{{variable}}` placeholders in your text are preserved exactly as-is.
Empty Conversation [#empty-conversation]
If the chat has no messages:
* **With contact profile** — The AI processes the prompt using profile context alone
* **Without contact profile** — Returns a "no context" error
# Edit Image (/docs/ai/actions/edit-image)
The Edit Image action lets you modify an uploaded image using AI by describing the changes you want. It uses DALL-E 2, the only OpenAI model that supports image editing.
How to Use [#how-to-use]
1. Upload an image to the message
2. Open AI Actions → **Edit Image**
3. Describe the changes you want
4. The AI generates a modified version
How It Works [#how-it-works]
The original image is resized to a square (1024×1024) for DALL-E 2 compatibility. The entire image is treated as editable, and the AI applies the requested changes while preserving the overall composition.
The original image is preserved — a new image is created with the edits applied.
Use Cases [#use-cases]
* Adjust colors or lighting in a product photo
* Remove or add elements to an image
* Apply stylistic changes to shared visuals
Requirements [#requirements]
* **OpenAI only** — [OpenAI provider](/docs/ai/providers) must be connected
* An image must be attached to the message first
* Not available when using Anthropic as the sole AI provider
# Expand (/docs/ai/actions/expand)
The Expand action takes a brief message and elaborates on it with more detail, context, and explanation.
How to Use [#how-to-use]
1. Type a brief message in the editor
2. Open AI Actions → **Expand**
3. The AI adds detail and context to your message
Any `{{variable}}` placeholders in your text are preserved exactly as-is.

* Add more context to a brief response
* Elaborate on technical explanations
# Generate Image (/docs/ai/actions/generate-image)
Generate images directly in the inbox editor using DALL-E 3.
How to Use [#how-to-use]
1. Open AI Actions → **Generate Image**
2. Enter a text prompt describing the desired image
3. Configure generation options
4. Click **Generate**
5. The image is attached to the message for preview before sending
Options [#options]
| Option | Values | Default |
| --------- | ------------------------------------------------ | --------- |
| **Size** | 1024×1024, 1024×1792, 1792×1024 | 1024×1024 |
| **Style** | Vivid (vibrant, dramatic), Natural (realistic) | Natural |
| **Model** | Configurable per operator via AI Preferences bar | DALL-E 3 |
The image model resolves in order: your AI Preferences setting → the assistant's configured image model → DALL-E 3 (default).
Best Practices for Prompts [#best-practices-for-prompts]
* Be specific about the subject, setting, and style
* Include details about lighting, perspective, and mood
* Mention what you DON'T want ("without text", "no watermarks")
DALL-E 3 may revise your prompt with additional detail for better results. The revised prompt is used internally but your original text is preserved.
Requirements [#requirements]

# Transcribe (/docs/ai/actions/transcribe)
The Transcribe action converts audio and voice messages into text using OpenAI Whisper, providing both full transcription and word-level timestamps.
How to Use [#how-to-use]
1. Receive or send an audio message in a chat
2. Click the **Transcribe** button on the audio message
3. The transcription appears inline with the audio, including timestamps
How It Works [#how-it-works]
The audio file is sent to OpenAI Whisper which returns a full text transcription with both sentence-level and word-level timestamps. The transcription is stored on the message and displayed in the chat.
Once transcribed, the text is also available to other AI actions — for example, [Suggest Reply](/docs/ai/actions/suggest-reply) can reference the transcribed content when generating responses.
Auto-Transcription [#auto-transcription]
Administrators can enable automatic transcription in **Settings → Inbox → Auto-transcribe messages**. When enabled:
* Every inbound audio message is automatically transcribed in the background
* The transcription appears on the message once complete
* No manual action is needed from operators
Translation [#translation]
To translate a transcription into another language, use the [Translate Transcript](/docs/ai/actions/translate-transcript) action.
Requirements [#requirements]
* **OpenAI only** — [OpenAI provider](/docs/ai/providers) must be connected (Whisper)
* Not available when using Anthropic as the sole AI provider
# Translate Transcript (/docs/ai/actions/translate-transcript)
The Translate Transcript action translates an existing audio transcription into a different language without re-transcribing the audio.
How to Use [#how-to-use]
1. Ensure the audio message is already [transcribed](/docs/ai/actions/transcribe)
2. Click **Translate** on the transcription
3. Select the target language
4. The translated transcription replaces the original text
How It Works [#how-it-works]
The existing transcription text is sent through the AI for translation. The translated text is re-aligned with the original timestamps, so the time markers remain accurate.
The original word-level timestamps and audio duration are preserved — only the text and sentence segments are updated.
This action translates an **existing transcription**. The audio is not re-processed. To transcribe audio for the first time, use the [Transcribe](/docs/ai/actions/transcribe) action.
Provider [#provider]
Unlike Transcribe (which requires OpenAI Whisper), Translate Transcript works with **any connected AI provider** (OpenAI or Anthropic) — it uses the organisation's default AI assistant for translation.
Requirements [#requirements]
* At least one [AI provider](/docs/ai/providers) must be connected
* The audio message must already have a transcription
# Translate (/docs/ai/actions/translate)
The Translate action converts your message text into another language using AI.
How to Use [#how-to-use]
1. Type or select text in the editor
2. Open AI Actions → **Translate**
3. Select the target language
4. The translated text replaces the original
Supported Languages [#supported-languages]
Translation supports any language the AI model can handle — including English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Ukrainian, Polish, Dutch, Swedish, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, Hindi, and many more.
If the text is already in the target language, it is returned unchanged.
Features [#features]
* **Natural translation** — Produces idiomatic, natural-sounding translations
* **Preserves variables** — Any `{{variable}}` placeholders are kept exactly as-is
This action translates **operator-written text** in the editor. To translate an audio transcription, use the [Translate Transcript](/docs/ai/actions/translate-transcript) action instead.

| **Identity** | You are a reliable insurance assistant for `{{COMPANY_NAME}}`. You help customers understand their coverage options, guide them through the claims process, provide policy information, and make insurance approachable and understandable. You simplify complex insurance concepts without oversimplifying important details. |
| **Language** | `en` |
| **Tone** | Professional |
| **Capabilities** | Explain different insurance products and coverage types, guide customers through the claims filing process, help with policy inquiries and coverage questions, assist with quote requests by collecting necessary information, explain deductibles, premiums, and coverage limits in plain language, provide general guidance on choosing appropriate coverage levels, answer questions about payment options and billing, and help with basic policy changes (address updates, adding coverage). |
| **Objective** | Help customers understand their insurance needs and feel confident about their coverage. Simplify the claims process to reduce customer anxiety during stressful times. Convert inquiries into quote requests while building trust through transparent, clear communication. |
| **Instructions** | 1. Insurance is confusing for most people — always explain terms like "deductible", "premium", "co-pay", "out-of-pocket maximum" in simple language using real-world examples. 2. For claims, be empathetic first — the customer is likely dealing with a stressful event (accident, damage, health issue). 3. When collecting claim information, explain WHY each piece of information is needed. 4. NEVER guarantee claim approval or specific coverage determinations — always say "based on your policy terms" or "subject to review." 5. For quote requests, collect: type of coverage, current coverage (if any), specific needs, and risk factors. Be transparent about what affects pricing. 6. For coverage comparisons, clearly explain what IS and ISN'T covered in each option. 7. For urgent situations (car accident, property damage, medical emergency), provide immediate action steps before starting the claims process. 8. Always disclose exclusions and limitations proactively — surprises at claim time destroy trust. |

| **Data** | [Update Contact](/docs/flows/cards/update-contact), [CRM](/docs/flows/cards/crm) (HubSpot / Salesforce / BigQuery) |
Some entries are **dropdowns** that expand to reveal sub-cards (e.g. WhatsApp, Media, Buttons, AI Agent, CRM). The WhatsApp dropdown dynamically shows only integrations connected to the workspace.
Drag a card from the panel onto the canvas to add it. You can also search by name and use arrow keys to navigate.
Tips [#tips]
* **Helper lines** appear when aligning cards for a clean layout.
* **Clipboard** — Select cards and use `Cmd+C` / `Cmd+V` to duplicate.
* **Keyboard shortcuts** — `Delete` to remove, `Cmd+Z` to undo, `Cmd+Shift+Z` to redo.
* **Auto-save** — Your flow saves automatically as you work (500ms debounce).
* Non-copyable nodes: Triggers and Ghost Cards cannot be copied.
# Triggers (/docs/flows/editor/triggers)
Every flow begins with a trigger — an event that starts the flow execution. Triggers are configured directly on the trigger node in the flow canvas.
Trigger Types [#trigger-types]
| Trigger | Description |
| -------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Message Received** | Fires on an incoming message, with rule-based matching |
| **First Visit** | Fires when a contact messages your bot for the first time |
| **Catch All** | Fires for any message that doesn't match another flow's trigger |
Trigger Configuration [#trigger-configuration]
Message Received [#message-received]
The Message Received trigger matches incoming messages using a **rule** with an operator and a value.
**Operators:**
| Operator | Description |
| ----------------- | --------------------------------- |
| **Equals** | Exact match |
| **Not equals** | Does not match |
| **Contains** | Message includes the text |
| **Not contains** | Message does not include the text |
| **Starts with** | Message begins with the text |
| **Ends with** | Message ends with the text |
| **Matches regex** | Regular expression match |
| **Is empty** | Message has no text |
| **Is not empty** | Message has any text |
**Example:** Trigger when message *contains* `/support`
First Visit [#first-visit]
No configuration needed — fires automatically when a contact sends their first-ever message to your bot.
Catch All [#catch-all]
No configuration needed — acts as a fallback for any message that doesn't match a trigger in another published flow.
Multiple Triggers [#multiple-triggers]
A single flow can have **multiple triggers**. They are combined with a connector:
| Connector | Behavior |
| --------- | ------------------------------- |
| **AND** | All triggers must match |
| **OR** | At least one trigger must match |
For example, you can set up a flow that triggers when a message *contains* `/support` **OR** on *First Visit*.
Integration Scope [#integration-scope]
Trigger scope is set at the **flow level** in [flow settings](/docs/flows/settings), not per trigger:
* **Run on all integrations** — The flow triggers on any connected channel (default)
* **Specific integrations** — Select individual Telegram bots, WhatsApp numbers, etc.
Only one flow can use the `First Visit` trigger per integration. If multiple flows have this trigger, only the most recently published one fires.
# Variables (/docs/flows/editor/variables)
Variables let you insert dynamic content into flow cards, personalize messages, and pass data between nodes in your flow.
Syntax [#syntax]
Use double curly braces to reference variables:
```
Hello {{user.firstName}}, welcome to our support!
```
Variables follow a **namespace.field** pattern.
Variable Namespaces [#variable-namespaces]
The execution engine uses **6 separate namespaces**:
| Namespace | Purpose | Scope | Example |
| ---------------- | ---------------------------- | ------- | ----------------------------------------------- |
| `user.*` | Contact profile data | Session | `{{user.firstName}}`, `{{user.email}}` |
| `chat.*` | Current conversation context | Session | `{{chat.firstName}}`, `{{chat.integrationId}}` |

Any **custom field** defined in Settings → People Fields is also available as `{{user.fieldKey}}` (e.g. `{{user.email}}`, `{{user.phone}}`, `{{user.company}}`). The input type adapts to the field definition (string, number, boolean, date, etc.).
Chat Variables (`chat.*`) [#chat-variables-chat]
| Variable | Type | Description |
| ------------------------ | ------ | ---------------------------- |
| `{{chat.id}}` | string | Chat document ID |
| `{{chat.chatId}}` | string | Chat ID (same as id) |

| Variable | Type | Description |
| -------------------------------- | ------ | ------------------------ |
| `{{lastMessage.text}}` | string | Text of the last message |
| `{{lastMessage.deliveryStatus}}` | string | Delivery status |
Flow Variables (`flow.*`) [#flow-variables-flow]
When an **interactive card** executes, its result is stored under the `flow` namespace using the card's ID:
```
{{flow.674000000000000001}} → user response from that card
{{flow.674000000000000001.variableName}} → named field (fetch card response mapping)
```
Which cards create flow variables [#which-cards-create-flow-variables]
| Card Type | Variable | Description |
| ------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------- |
| [Question](/docs/flows/cards/question) | `flow.{cardId}` | The user's text reply |
| [Button](/docs/flows/cards/button) (and variants) | `flow.{cardId}` | The selected button label/value |
| [AI Agent](/docs/flows/cards/ai-agent) | `flow.{cardId}` | Agent conversation result |
| [HTTP Request](/docs/flows/cards/fetch) | `flow.{cardId}.{variableName}` | Each response mapping field creates its own variable |
For [HTTP Request](/docs/flows/cards/fetch) cards, variables are created from the **Response Mapping** configuration — each mapping entry (variableName + jsonPath) creates a separate `flow.{cardId}.{variableName}`.
Variable availability [#variable-availability]
Flow variables only become available **after** the card has executed. The engine tracks the execution path from the trigger to the current card and only exposes variables from cards that are reachable **before** the current card in the execution path.
Variable Editor [#variable-editor]
When editing a card's text content, the editor provides:
* **Autocomplete** — Type `{{` to see available variables from all namespaces.
* **Validation** — Invalid variable references are highlighted.
Variable Scope [#variable-scope]
* **Global** variables (`organisation.*`, `system.*`) are loaded at flow start and available everywhere.
* **Session** variables (`user.*`, `chat.*`, `lastMessage.*`) are loaded from the current conversation context.
* **Flow** variables (`flow.*`) are created during execution and persist for the remainder of the flow run.
# Version History (/docs/flows/editor/version-history)
Wexio tracks every change to your flow through two complementary systems: **versions** (published snapshots) and **activities** (individual edit audit log). Together they provide full history and rollback.
Key Concepts [#key-concepts]
Versions [#versions]
* **Immutable snapshots** created each time you publish
* Contain a full copy of all cards, connections, triggers, and settings
* Each version has a sequential number (v1, v2, v3, …)
* One version can be marked as **Live** — the one the bot is executing
* You can **switch to any version** to restore it
Activities [#activities]
* **Immutable audit log entries** — one per mutation
* Record: **who** made the change, **what** the change was, and **when** it happened
* Each activity stores a full post-mutation snapshot of the flow
* Activities with `versionNumber: null` are draft edits (not yet published)
* When you publish, all draft activities are stamped with the new version number
* You can **restore draft** to any activity's snapshot
Draft [#draft]
* The live, editable state where all your changes happen
* The bot **never** executes the draft — only published versions run
* `hasUnpublishedChanges` is `true` when the draft differs from the live version
Version History Panel [#version-history-panel]
Open the version history panel from the **toolbar** or **header**. The panel shows three sections:
Live [#live]
The currently published version (if the flow is published). Shows version number, publish date, and who published.
Draft [#draft-1]
Current unpublished work. Shows a list of draft activities (recent edits) with options to **Reset Draft** or **Discard Changes**.
Previous Versions [#previous-versions]
A paginated list of all past published versions. Each entry shows:
| Field | Description |
| ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Version number** | e.g., v1, v2, v3 |
| **Label** | Optional label set at publish time (e.g., "Holiday campaign") |
| **Published by** | Who published the version |
| **Published at** | When the version was published |
Publishing [#publishing]
When you click **Publish**, Wexio:
1. Validates the flow (checks for disconnected cards, empty flows, etc.)
2. Creates an immutable snapshot of the current draft (all cards, triggers, settings)
3. Saves it as a new version with the next version number
4. Makes that snapshot the live version — the bot starts executing it immediately
5. Stamps all draft activities with the new version number
6. Sets `hasUnpublishedChanges` to `false`
You can optionally add a **label** and **description** when publishing to help identify the version later.
After publishing, you can continue editing the draft. Your edits won't affect the live version until you publish again.
Unpublishing [#unpublishing]
Unpublishing a flow:
* Stops the bot from executing it — no new triggers fire
* Clears the published snapshot
* **Does not** remove version history — all versions are preserved
* **Does not** touch the draft — your edits remain intact
* Active conversations are allowed to complete gracefully
Switching to a Previous Version [#switching-to-a-previous-version]
Click the **Restore** button on any version to switch to it. This is a combined operation that:
1. **Replaces the draft** — All current cards and triggers are replaced with the version's snapshot
2. **Makes it live** — The version becomes the published snapshot the bot executes
3. **Discards draft activities** — Unpublished draft editing history is removed
Switching to a version replaces your current draft. If you have unpublished changes, you'll see a warning dialog — confirm before proceeding.
Version numbers always increment. Switching to v1 doesn't "go back" — it means "use v1's content as the current state." The next publish after switching to v1 will create v5 (or whatever the next number is).
Restoring Draft from an Activity [#restoring-draft-from-an-activity]
You can also restore the draft to the state captured at any specific activity. Unlike version switching, this only changes the draft — the published (live) version remains unchanged.
After restoring from an activity:
* The draft is replaced with the activity's snapshot
* `hasUnpublishedChanges` becomes `true`
* The bot continues running the current live version
* You must publish separately to make the restored state live
Activity Log [#activity-log]
The activity log records every mutation with a descriptive action:
| Action | Description |
| ------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Card Added** | New card added to the flow |
| **Card Updated** | Card content or settings modified |
| **Card Deleted** | Card removed from the flow |
| **Card Restored** | Soft-deleted card restored |
| **Cards Bulk Deleted** | Multiple cards removed at once |
| **Cards Bulk Restored** | Multiple soft-deleted cards restored at once |
| **Trigger Added** | New trigger added |
| **Trigger Updated** | Trigger configuration changed |
| **Trigger Deleted** | Trigger removed |
| **Flow Settings Updated** | Title, description, timeout, or other settings changed |
| **Flow Published** | New version published |
| **Flow Unpublished** | Flow deactivated |
| **Version Switched** | Reverted to a previous version |
Each activity entry includes the **actor** (user or AI assistant), the **action**, relevant **details** (e.g., card title, changed fields), and a **timestamp**.
# AI Agent Card (/docs/flows/cards/ai-agent)
The AI Agent Card creates an interactive AI-powered conversation that can handle multiple back-and-forth exchanges with the contact, maintaining context throughout.
Configuration [#configuration]
| Setting | Description |
| ------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **System prompt** | Instructions that define the agent's identity, objective, tone, and capabilities |
| **Memory type** | How conversation context is maintained — `conversation` or `session` |
| **Lookback hours** | How far back to include chat history (conversation mode) |
| **Max turns** | Maximum number of exchanges before the agent exits (default: 50) |
| **Buttons** | Optional response buttons shown to the contact |
How It Works [#how-it-works]
1. The AI Agent takes over the conversation
2. It responds to each contact message using conversation context and system prompt
3. The conversation continues until:
* The max turns limit is reached
* An exit condition is triggered (e.g., contact clicks a button)
* The agent decides to hand off
4. The flow continues to the next connected card after the agent exits
Memory Types [#memory-types]
| Type | Description |
| ---------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Conversation** | Includes recent chat history based on lookback hours — the agent can reference messages from before the flow started |
| **Session** | Only includes messages from the current flow execution — no prior history |
Context & Knowledge [#context--knowledge]
The AI Agent has access to:
* **System prompt** — Identity, objective, tone, capabilities, and constraints
* **Conversation history** — Previous messages based on memory type
* **Contact data** — Contact variables and custom fields via `{{user.*}}`
* **Knowledge base** — Uploaded documents attached to the assistant for domain-specific knowledge
Buttons [#buttons]
You can add response buttons to the AI Agent card. Each button creates a separate output connection, allowing the flow to branch based on which button the contact clicks (or when the agent conversation ends).
Output Variable [#output-variable]
The AI Agent's conversation result is stored in `{{flow.{cardId}}}` — where `{cardId}` is the unique ID of this AI Agent card.
See [Variables](/docs/flows/editor/variables) for details on all variable namespaces.
Connections [#connections]
* **1 input port** — Receives execution
* **Multiple output ports** — One per button, plus a default "completed" output
Operations Cost [#operations-cost]
Each turn costs operations based on the AI model and token usage.
AI Agents work best when the system prompt has detailed instructions. Be specific about what the agent should and shouldn't do, what tone to use, and when to escalate.
# AI Classification Card (/docs/flows/cards/ai-classification)
The AI Classification Card uses AI to analyze user input and classify it into one of your predefined categories, routing the flow to the matching branch.
Configuration [#configuration]
| Setting | Description |
| ----------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **System prompt** | Instructions guiding how the AI should classify the input |
| **Categories** | Define classification categories as buttons — each creates an output branch |
How It Works [#how-it-works]
1. The card receives user input (text, image, audio, or video)
2. The AI model analyzes the input using the system prompt as guidance
3. It selects the best-matching category
4. The flow branches to the corresponding category output
Categories [#categories]
Define the categories the AI should classify into. Each category creates a separate output connection on the card, just like buttons:
* **Sales inquiry** → Route to sales flow
* **Support request** → Route to support agent
* **Billing question** → Route to billing flow
* **General question** → Route to FAQ
Add a **Fallback** category for inputs that don't match any defined category.
Connections [#connections]
* **1 input port** — Receives execution
* **Multiple output ports** — One per category, enabling branching by classification result
* **1 error output** — Triggers if the AI model fails or returns an unrecognized result
Use Cases [#use-cases]
* **Intent detection** — Route support vs. sales inquiries
* **Sentiment analysis** — Detect customer satisfaction levels
* **Content moderation** — Flag inappropriate content
* **Lead scoring** — Classify lead quality
* **Topic routing** — Direct conversations to specialized flows
Operations Cost [#operations-cost]
Depends on the AI model and input type.
# AI Text Card (/docs/flows/cards/ai-text)
The AI Text Card generates a response using an AI model and **sends it directly to the contact** as a message in the conversation.
Configuration [#configuration]
| Setting | Description |
| ----------------- | ------------------------------------------ |
| **System prompt** | Instructions that define the AI's behavior |
| **User prompt** | The message or question to send to the AI |
Both prompts support flow variables — e.g. `{{user.firstName}}`, `{{lastMessage.text}}`.
How It Works [#how-it-works]
1. The system and user prompts are constructed with resolved variables.
2. The prompt is sent to the AI model.
3. The generated response is **sent to the contact** as a chat message.
4. The flow continues to the next card.
Connections [#connections]
* **1 input port** — Receives execution.
* **1 output port** — Continues after the AI response is received.
Use Cases [#use-cases]
* **Generate personalized responses** based on contact data.
* **Summarize conversations** for handoff to operators.
* **Extract information** from user messages.
* **Translate content** dynamically.
Operations Cost [#operations-cost]
Depends on the AI model and token usage.
The AI Text Card processes a single prompt. For multi-turn conversations with memory, use the [AI Agent Card](/docs/flows/cards/ai-agent).
# AI Text-to-Speech Card (/docs/flows/cards/ai-tts)
The AI Text-to-Speech Card converts text content into a spoken audio message and sends it to the contact as a voice note.

| ---------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Text** | The text to convert to speech (supports [variables](/docs/flows/editor/variables)) |
| **Voice** | Select from available TTS voices |
| **Speed** | Playback speed multiplier (0.25x to 4x) |
| **Instructions** | Optional instructions for voice style and delivery |
How It Works [#how-it-works]
1. The text content is resolved (variables are substituted)
2. The text is sent to the TTS model with voice, speed, and instruction settings
3. Audio is generated and sent as a voice message to the contact
4. The flow continues to the next card
Connections [#connections]
* **1 input port** — Receives execution
* **1 output port** — Continues after the audio is sent
* **1 error output** — Triggers if the TTS generation fails
Use Cases [#use-cases]
* **Accessibility** — Provide audio versions of important messages
* **Personalization** — Dynamic voice responses based on contact data
* **Alerts** — Urgent notifications via voice
Operations Cost [#operations-cost]
Depends on text length and the TTS model used.
# Assign Operator Card (/docs/flows/cards/assign-operator)
The Assign Operator Card automatically assigns the current conversation to a team member based on your configuration — either a specific person or the next available operator matching role and capacity criteria.
Assignment Modes [#assignment-modes]
Auto Mode [#auto-mode]
Automatically assigns the conversation to the first available operator based on:
| Setting | Description |
| -------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Allowed roles** | Which roles can receive assignments — select from Agent, Editor, Admin, Owner |
| **Max chats per operator** | Maximum concurrent chats an operator can handle (default: 10) |
| **Fallback operator** | Specific team member to assign to when no one else is available |
The system checks each operator's current chat count against the max limit and assigns to the first available match.
Specific Mode [#specific-mode]
Assign directly to a named team member. Select the operator from a dropdown of accepted organisation members.
Connections [#connections]
* **1 input port** — Receives execution
* **1 output port** — Continues after assignment
* **1 error port** — "No Available Operators" — routes when the queue is full or no operator matches the role criteria
Always connect the error port to handle the case when no operators are available. You can route to a message card that informs the contact, or to another Assign Operator card with different criteria.
Operations Cost [#operations-cost]
**2 operations** per execution.

How It Works [#how-it-works]
1. The question text is sent to the contact.
2. The flow **pauses** and waits for a reply.
3. When the contact responds, their answer is stored as a flow variable.
4. The flow continues to the next card.
Output Variable [#output-variable]
The contact's reply text is stored in `{{flow.{cardId}}}` — where `{cardId}` is the unique ID of this Question card.
You can use this variable in any subsequent card:
```
You said: {{flow.674000000000000001}}
```
See [Variables](/docs/flows/editor/variables) for details on all variable namespaces.
Connections [#connections]
* **1 input port** — Receives execution.
* **1 output port** — Continues after the contact replies.
Operations Cost [#operations-cost]
**1 operation** per execution.
# Sub-flow Card (/docs/flows/cards/sub-flow)
The Sub-flow Card triggers another flow within the current flow, enabling modular and reusable automation components. The parent flow pauses until the sub-flow completes, times out, or errors.
Configuration [#configuration]
| Setting | Description |
| -------- | ---------------------------------------- |
| **Flow** | Select the flow to execute as a sub-flow |
How It Works [#how-it-works]
1. The parent flow reaches the Sub-flow card and **pauses**
2. The selected sub-flow starts executing independently with its own timeout
3. User messages are routed to the **sub-flow** while it's active
4. When the sub-flow finishes, the parent flow **resumes** from the next connected card
5. Sub-flow results can be stored in a parent flow variable
Connections [#connections]
* **1 input port** — Receives execution
* **1 output port** — Continues after the sub-flow completes
Timeouts [#timeouts]
Each sub-flow runs with its own independent timeout (default: 1 minute), separate from the parent flow's timeout. If the sub-flow doesn't complete within this time:
* The sub-flow is terminated
* The parent is automatically resumed via the timeout or error connection
* The parent's own timeout continues ticking independently
Use Cases [#use-cases]
* **Modular design** — Build reusable flow components (e.g., "Collect address" flow)
* **Complex workflows** — Break large flows into manageable pieces
* **Shared logic** — Use the same sub-flow across multiple parent flows
* **Error isolation** — Sub-flow errors don't crash the parent
Operations Cost [#operations-cost]
**2 operations** per execution (plus the operations used by the sub-flow itself).
Be careful with deeply nested flows — each level adds latency and operations cost. Keep nesting depth reasonable (3–4 levels max recommended).
# Text Card (/docs/flows/cards/text)
The Text Card sends a rich-text message to the contact in the conversation.
Configuration [#configuration]
| Setting | Description |
| ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Message text** | Rich-text content to send. Supports flow variables — e.g. `{{user.firstName}}`, `{{flow.cardId}}` |
Connections [#connections]
* **1 input port** — Receives execution from a previous card.
* **1 output port** — Continues to the next card after the message is sent.
Operations Cost [#operations-cost]
**1 operation** per execution.
For messages that need user input, use the [Question Card](/docs/flows/cards/question) instead — it pauses the flow until the user replies.
# Update Contact Card (/docs/flows/cards/update-contact)
The Update Contact Card modifies the current contact's profile. You select a field and set its new value — inline on the card, no sidebar settings needed.
Configuration [#configuration]
| Setting | Description |
| --------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Field** | The profile field to update (system or custom) |
| **Value** | The new value — input type adapts to the field (text, boolean, enum, date, etc.) |
Values support flow variables for text and number fields — e.g. `{{flow.cardId}}`.
Connections [#connections]
* **1 input port** — Receives execution.
* **1 output port** — Continues to the next card.
Operations Cost [#operations-cost]
**2 operations** per execution.
# WhatsApp Catalog Card (/docs/flows/cards/wa-catalog)
The WA Catalog Card sends your WhatsApp Business product catalog to the contact, allowing them to browse and order products directly in the chat.
Configuration [#configuration]
| Setting | Description |
| --------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Body text** | Message accompanying the catalog |
| **Thumbnail product** | Optional product SKU used as the catalog thumbnail (defaults to the first catalog item) |
The integration is resolved automatically from the flow's WhatsApp integration context — there is no integration selector on this card.
Connections [#connections]
* **1 input port** — Receives execution.
* **3 output ports:**
* **Next** — Default continuation (fire-and-forget mode).
* **On Order** — Routes here when the contact places an order via the catalog.
* **On Error** — Routes here on validation or send failure.
When the **On Order** port is connected, the card operates in two-phase mode: it sends the catalog, then **pauses** the flow until an order webhook is received from WhatsApp.
Operations Cost [#operations-cost]
**1 operation** per execution.
To send specific products instead of the full catalog, use the [WA Product Card](/docs/flows/cards/wa-product) or [WA Products Card](/docs/flows/cards/wa-products).
# WhatsApp List Message Card (/docs/flows/cards/wa-list)
The WA List Message Card sends a scrollable list of selectable options. The flow **pauses** until the contact picks a row, then routes to the matching branch.
Configuration [#configuration]
| Setting | Description |
| ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Body text** | Main message text (required, max 4096 chars) |
| **Button label** | Text on the CTA button that opens the list (max 24 chars) |
| **Header** | Optional header text (toggle in settings panel, max 60 chars) |
| **Footer** | Optional footer text (toggle in settings panel, max 60 chars) |
| **Rows** | Up to 10 selectable items |
Row Fields [#row-fields]
Each row contains:
| Field | Limit | Description |
| --------------- | -------- | ------------------------- |
| **Label** | 24 chars | Row title (required) |
| **Description** | 72 chars | Optional description text |
Connections [#connections]
* **1 input port** — Receives execution.
* **1 default output port** — Fallback when no row matches.
* **Per-row output ports** — Each row creates its own connection handle for branching.
How It Works [#how-it-works]
1. The list message is sent with a CTA button.
2. The contact taps the button to open the list modal.
3. They select a row.
4. The flow routes to the branch connected to that row's output port.
5. If no matching branch is found, the default output is used.
Operations Cost [#operations-cost]
**1 operation** per execution.
# WhatsApp Product Card (/docs/flows/cards/wa-product)
The WA Product Card sends a Single Product Message (SPM) from your WhatsApp Business catalog.
Configuration [#configuration]
| Setting | Description |
| --------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Integration** | WhatsApp integration to resolve the product catalog (in settings panel) |
| **Product** | Select a product from the catalog by SKU (in settings panel) |
| **Body text** | Optional message text |
| **Header** | Optional header text (toggle in settings panel, max 60 chars) |
| **Footer** | Optional footer text (toggle in settings panel, max 60 chars) |
The product image, name, and price are fetched from the catalog automatically.
Connections [#connections]
* **1 input port** — Receives execution.
* **2 output ports:**
* **Next** — Default continuation.
* **On Interact** — Routes here when the contact interacts with the product (e.g. adds to cart).
Operations Cost [#operations-cost]
**1 operation** per execution.
# WhatsApp Products Card (/docs/flows/cards/wa-products)
The WA Products Card sends a Multi-Product Message (MPM) from your WhatsApp Business catalog.
Configuration [#configuration]
| Setting | Description |
| --------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Integration** | WhatsApp integration to resolve the product catalog (in settings panel) |
| **Products** | Select up to 30 products from the catalog (in settings panel) |
| **Header** | Header text (**required** for MPM, max 60 chars) |
| **Body text** | Optional message text |
| **Footer** | Optional footer text (toggle in settings panel, max 60 chars) |
Connections [#connections]
* **1 input port** — Receives execution.
* **1 output port** — Continues to the next card after the message is sent.
Operations Cost [#operations-cost]
**1 operation** per execution.
To send your entire catalog, use the [WA Catalog Card](/docs/flows/cards/wa-catalog) instead.
# WhatsApp Template Card (/docs/flows/cards/wa-template)
The WA Template Card sends a pre-approved WhatsApp Business message template. Templates are required for initiating conversations or messaging outside the 24-hour messaging window.
Configuration [#configuration]
| Setting | Description |
| ---------------------- | ------------------------------------------- |
| **Integration** | Select the WhatsApp Business integration |
| **Template** | Select from approved templates |
| **Variable overrides** | Map flow variables to template placeholders |
Template Components [#template-components]
Templates can include:
* **Header** — Text, image, video, document, or location
* **Body** — Main text with variable placeholders (`{{1}}`, `{{2}}`)
* **Footer** — Optional footer text
* **Buttons** — Quick reply, URL, phone, or copy code buttons
Variable Mapping [#variable-mapping]
Map flow [variables](/docs/flows/editor/variables) to template placeholders:
```
{{1}} → {{user.first_name}}
{{2}} → {{flow.orderCard.orderId}}
{{3}} → {{system.currentDate}}
```
Header media can be set via a media ID. Button URL suffixes can also use variables.
Routing Behavior [#routing-behavior]
The WA Template card supports two modes depending on whether the template has routable quick reply buttons:
| Template Type | Behavior |
| ---------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **No routable buttons** | Fire-and-forget — the template is sent and the flow continues immediately |
| **With quick reply buttons** | Two-phase — the template is sent, the flow pauses, and resumes when the contact clicks a button |
When quick reply buttons are configured, each button creates an output connection for branching.
Connections [#connections]
* **1 input port** — Receives execution
* **1 output port** — Default continuation (fire-and-forget mode)
* **Multiple output ports** — One per quick reply button (routing mode)
Use Cases [#use-cases]
* **Order confirmations** — Send structured order updates
* **Appointment reminders** — Scheduled template messages
* **Marketing campaigns** — Broadcast approved marketing content
* **Re-engagement** — Reach out after the 24-hour window
Operations Cost [#operations-cost]
**1 operation** per execution.
Templates must be approved by Meta/WhatsApp before they can be used. Manage your templates in the WhatsApp Business Manager.
# Flow Settings (/docs/flows/settings)
Flow settings control how a flow behaves, which integrations it applies to, and its execution parameters. Open settings from the **gear icon** in the editor header.
General Settings [#general-settings]
| Setting | Description |
| --------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Title** | Flow name displayed in the flows list (required, max 100 characters) |
| **Description** | Optional description of the flow's purpose (max 500 characters) |
Execution Settings [#execution-settings]
| Setting | Description | Default |
| ----------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------- |
| **Execute timeout** | Maximum time (in minutes) the flow can run before being terminated. Set to 0 for no timeout. Range: 0–1440 minutes. | 5 min |
| **Strict mode** | When enabled, the flow stops on any card error instead of silently continuing to the next card | Off |
| **Strict mode error message** | Custom message shown to the contact when strict mode stops the flow | — |
Timeouts [#timeouts]
The execution timeout protects against flows that get stuck (e.g., waiting for a user reply that never comes). When the timeout expires:
* The flow execution is terminated
* Any pending messages are not sent
* If this is a [sub-flow](/docs/flows/cards/sub-flow), the parent flow is notified and can resume from its timeout or error handler
[Sub-flows](/docs/flows/cards/sub-flow) have their own independent timeout (default: 1 minute), separate from the parent flow's timeout.
Strict Mode [#strict-mode]
By default, if a card encounters an error during execution (e.g., invalid variable, failed API call), the flow skips the card and continues to the next one. With strict mode enabled:
* The flow stops immediately on any card error
* The configured error message is sent to the contact
* The execution is marked as failed
Integration Scope [#integration-scope]
Control which connected channels this flow triggers on:
| Setting | Description |
| --------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Run on all integrations** | Flow triggers on every connected channel (default) |
| **Specific integrations** | Select individual Telegram bots, WhatsApp numbers, etc. |
This is important when you have multiple bots or WhatsApp numbers connected and want different flows for each.
Publishing [#publishing]
| Action | Description |
| ------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Publish** | Activate the flow — creates a new [version](/docs/flows/editor/version-history) and the bot starts executing it |
| **Unpublish** | Deactivate the flow — the bot stops triggering it, but draft and version history are preserved |
When you unpublish a flow, any active executions are allowed to complete gracefully. New executions are not started.
# AI Bar (/docs/inbox/chat/ai-bar)
The AI Bar is a collapsible control bar that appears between the message thread and the editor, allowing you to toggle and configure AI auto-reply for the current chat.
Features [#features]
Toggle AI Auto-Reply [#toggle-ai-auto-reply]

The header also shows:
* **Provider icon** — Which [messaging channel](/docs/settings/integrations/channels) (Telegram, WhatsApp, Instagram, Viber)
* **Contact name** — The contact's display name
* **Chat statuses** — Indicators for [AI](/docs/ai) activity, [flow](/docs/flows) status, and priority level
# Chat View (/docs/inbox/chat)
The Chat view is the main interface for managing individual conversations. When you select a conversation from the chat list, the right panel opens the full chat thread.
Layout [#layout]
The chat view consists of several components:
| Area | Purpose |
| ------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------- |
| **Header** | Chat status, assignment, actions, and in-chat search |
| **Message Thread** | Full conversation history with infinite scroll |
| **AI Bar** | Toggle AI auto-reply for this specific chat |
| **Editor** | Message composition with rich editing and attachments |
| **Profile Sidebar** | Contact details (toggle from header) |
Message Thread [#message-thread]
Messages are loaded with **cursor-based pagination**. As you scroll up, older messages load automatically. The thread supports:
* **Lazy loading** — Messages load in pages as you scroll
* **Infinite scroll** — Seamless pagination in both directions
* **Message navigation** — Jump to specific messages (e.g., from search results)
* **Smooth scrolling** — Animated scroll to newest messages
* **Real-time updates** — New messages appear instantly via WebSocket subscriptions
Message Read Tracking [#message-read-tracking]
Messages are automatically marked as read when they enter the viewport, using an Intersection Observer. Only unread inbound messages are marked, and read events are batched to minimize network requests.
Real-time Updates [#real-time-updates]
The chat view subscribes to real-time events including:
* New incoming [messages](/docs/inbox/chat/messages)
* Message delivery status changes
* [Chat status](/docs/inbox) updates
* [Assignment](/docs/inbox/chat/header) changes
* Blocking status updates
# AI Settings (/docs/settings/inbox/ai-settings)
Configure how AI assistants interact with conversations in your inbox.
Behaviour [#behaviour]
Configure how AI assistants interact with your inbox.
| Setting | Description |
| ---------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Assistant** | Select the default AI assistant to use for inbox conversations (e.g. "Wexio AI (Default)") |
| **Chat History Context** | Number of messages to load for AI context. `0` = disabled, max = `100` |
| **Enable sending contact details** | Send people's profile to the AI to provide more personalised responses. This sends personal details of the user to the AI |
For creating and configuring assistants, managing knowledge base, and setting up providers — see the [AI section](/docs/ai).
Media AI Processing [#media-ai-processing]
Configure how AI processes different types of media attachments in inbox conversations.
| Setting | Description |
| ----------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Transcribe Audio Messages** | Automatically transcribe incoming audio messages using AI so the assistant can read and respond to voice content |
| **Analyze Images** | Allow AI to analyze incoming images to understand visual content and provide relevant responses. Enabling this adds image processing to the AI pipeline, which may increase response time |
| **Analyze Documents** | Allow AI to read and analyze incoming documents (PDF, Word, etc.) for context-aware responses |
| **Analyze Videos** | Allow AI to analyze incoming video content to understand and respond to visual media. Video analysis requires more processing time and may noticeably increase AI response time |
Transcriptions appear alongside the original audio message in the chat.
# Inbox Settings (/docs/settings/inbox)
Inbox settings are organised into two tabs:
# Spam Protection (/docs/settings/inbox/spam-protection)
Spam protection safeguards both your team and your contacts from message abuse. It handles two directions:
* **Inbound** — Prevents users from flooding your bots with spam messages
* **Outbound** — Prevents misconfigured flows from sending excessive messages to users
Configuration [#configuration]
1. Go to **Settings → Inbox → Spam Protection**
2. Toggle spam protection **on** or **off**
3. Choose your **block mode** for inbound spammers
4. Set the **block duration** (if using temporary blocks)
Enable Spam Protection [#enable-spam-protection]
When enabled, the system automatically monitors for spam patterns and takes protective action.
Block Mode [#block-mode]
| Mode | Behaviour |
| ------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Throttle Only** | Never block the user — just silently skip processing their spam messages |
| **Temporary Block** | Temporarily block outbound messages for a set duration, then automatically resume |
| **Permanent Block** | Block until an operator manually unblocks the user from the chat |
Block Duration [#block-duration]
Duration in minutes (1–1440). Only applies to **Temporary Block** mode. Default: **5 minutes**.
Outbound Status [#outbound-status]
Shows the current status of outbound messaging for your organisation:
* **Outbound messaging is active** — everything is working normally
* **Outbound messaging is paused** — outbound was temporarily blocked due to spam protection triggers. It will automatically resume after the block expires
Block History [#block-history]
A log of all spam protection events, showing:
| Column | Description |
| --------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Chat** | The contact name and when the event occurred |
| **Event** | The action taken — **User Blocked** or **User Unblocked** |
| **Reason** | Why the block/unblock happened (e.g. manually blocked by operator, rate limit exceeded) |
| **Resolved by** | The operator who performed the action |
***
Inbound Protection (User → Bot) [#inbound-protection-user--bot]
Prevents users from spamming your bots with rapid-fire or duplicate messages. All protection happens automatically — no configuration needed beyond the settings above.
How It Works [#how-it-works]
When a user sends messages to your bot, spam protection checks three layers:
1. **Rate Limiting** — Detects message bursts and sustained flooding
2. **Message Dedup** — If a user sends the same trigger multiple times rapidly, only the latest message is processed ("latest wins")
3. **Spam Actions** — Escalating responses based on how many times the user hits rate limits
Rate Limits [#rate-limits]
| Window | Max Messages | Purpose |
| ---------- | ------------ | -------------------------------- |
| 5 seconds | 20 | Burst protection (spam clicking) |
| 60 seconds | 60 | Sustained flood protection |
Messages are always saved to the chat history regardless of spam status. Only processing (flows, AI) is skipped for spam messages.
Escalation [#escalation]
When a user repeatedly hits rate limits, the system escalates automatically:
| Violations (per hour) | Action |
| --------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 1–2 | **Throttle** — silently skip processing |
| 3–5 | **Warn** — send a system message: "Please slow down, messages are being throttled" |
| 6+ | **Block** — block the user based on your block mode setting |
When a user is blocked:
* Their messages are still saved (audit trail preserved)
* All processing is skipped (flows, AI, keyboards)
* A system message appears in the chat (visible to operators)
* Operators can **unblock manually** via chat actions at any time
***
Outbound Protection (Bot → User) [#outbound-protection-bot--user]
Prevents misconfigured flows from sending excessive messages to your contacts. This protects your users from being flooded if a flow has a loop or sends too many messages.
How It Works [#how-it-works-1]
Outbound protection works on a **per-chat first** principle — a problem in one chat only affects that one chat. If problems occur across multiple chats simultaneously, it escalates to an organisation-level block.
Per-Chat Protection [#per-chat-protection]
| Check | Threshold | Action |
| ---------------------- | --------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------- |
| **Flow loop** | Same flow card visited 5+ times in one execution | Flow cancelled with error message |
| **Flow message flood** | 50+ messages sent by a single flow execution | Flow cancelled with error message |
| **Chat rate limit** | 30+ outbound messages to one chat within 40 seconds | Outbound paused for that chat for 60 seconds |
When any of these triggers, a system message appears in the affected chat explaining what happened (e.g. "Flow cancelled: loop detected on card 'Welcome'").
Organisation-Level Escalation [#organisation-level-escalation]
If **3 or more different chats** trigger outbound violations within 5 minutes, Wexio pauses all outbound messages for your entire organisation for 5 minutes:
* All outbound sending is paused (flows, AI responses, API sends)
* All active flows across the organisation are cancelled
* **Inbound messages continue to arrive** — no data is lost
* Operators can still view chats and read messages
* All online team members receive a notification explaining the pause
* After 5 minutes, outbound automatically resumes
A single buggy flow in one chat will **not** block your entire organisation — only that specific chat is affected. Organisation-level blocks only trigger when the same problem occurs across 3+ chats simultaneously.
Why This Design? [#why-this-design]
| Scenario | What happens |
| ------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| One chat has a flow loop | That chat's flow is cancelled. Organisation is **not** affected |
| Two chats have issues | Each chat is handled individually. Warning logged |
| 3+ chats have issues within 5 minutes | Organisation outbound paused for 5 minutes — this indicates a systematic problem |
***
Blocked Users [#blocked-users]
When a user is blocked by spam protection (or manually by an operator):
* A **system message** appears in the chat indicating the user was blocked
* Operators can **unblock** the user from the chat actions menu
* Temporarily blocked users are automatically unblocked after the configured duration
* Permanently blocked users remain blocked until an operator unblocks them
***
Key Details [#key-details]
| When spam is detected | Preserved | Skipped |
| -------------------------- | ----------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------- |
| **Rate limited** | Message saved to chat history | Flow processing, AI responses |
| **User blocked** | Message saved to chat history | All processing (flows, AI, keyboards) |
| **Outbound paused (chat)** | Inbound messages arrive normally | Outbound to that specific chat |
| **Outbound paused (org)** | All inbound messages arrive and are saved | All outbound across the organisation |
| Case | Behaviour |
| ---------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Blocked user sends a message | Saved to chat history — operators can see it, but no flows or AI process it |
| Operator messages a blocked user | Works normally — inbound blocks don't affect outbound |
| Org outbound blocked, user sends message | Inbound is processed normally; only outbound is paused |
| Flow loop in a sub-flow | Only the sub-flow is cancelled; the parent flow continues |
| System goes offline (Redis unavailable) | **Fail-open** — all messages are processed normally to avoid false blocks |

4. Paste the contents of your Google Cloud **service account JSON credentials**.
5. Click **Connect**.
After connecting, you'll be prompted to [configure field mappings](#field-mappings).
***
Field Mappings [#field-mappings]
Field mappings define how data flows between your CRM and Wexio. After connecting any CRM, the **Configure Field Mappings** dialog opens.
Structure [#structure]
Each mapping connects one CRM field to one Wexio field with a sync direction:
| Element | Description |
| ------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **CRM Field** | A field from your CRM (with its type badge, e.g. `string`, `number`) |
| **Sync Direction** | How data flows between the two systems |
| **Wexio Field** | A field from your Wexio people profile (with its type badge) |
Sync Directions [#sync-directions]
Each field mapping can have one of three sync directions:
| Direction | Label | Description |
| --------------- | ----- | ----------------------------- |
| **Both Ways** | ⇄ | Sync during import AND export |
| **Import Only** | ← | Only sync CRM → Wexio |
| **Export Only** | → | Only sync Wexio → CRM |
If a CRM field is **read-only**, the direction is automatically set to Import Only. If a Wexio field is read-only, it's set to Export Only.
Required Mapping: Wexio ID [#required-mapping-wexio-id]
The first mapping is always **Wexio ID** — this is the unique identifier that links a Wexio contact to a CRM record. It is locked and cannot be deleted or changed.
| CRM | Wexio ID Field Name |
| ---------- | ------------------- |
| HubSpot | `wexio_id` |
| Salesforce | `wexio_id__c` |
| BigQuery | `wexio_id` |
Adding Mappings [#adding-mappings]
1. Click **+ Add Mapping** at the bottom.
2. Select the **CRM field** from the dropdown.
3. Select the matching **Wexio field**.
4. Choose the **sync direction**.
5. Repeat for all fields you want to sync.
6. Click **Save Mappings**.
Use **Refresh CRM Fields** to re-fetch the latest fields from your CRM if you've recently added new properties there.
Creating New Fields [#creating-new-fields]
If a matching field doesn't exist yet, you can create one during mapping:
When mapping a CRM field that has no matching Wexio field, you can create a new custom field:
* **Field Label** — display name for the new field
* **Field Type** — automatically matched from the CRM field type
* For **enumeration/picklist** fields, you can either auto-generate options from CRM data or define them manually (minimum 2 options)
When exporting a Wexio field that doesn't exist in the CRM, you can create it:
| Property | Description |
| --------------- | -------------------------------------------------- |
| **Label** | Display name in the CRM |
| **Type** | Field type (varies by CRM — see table below) |
| **Description** | Optional description |
| **Group** | Property group (HubSpot only, defaults to "wexio") |
**Available field types by CRM:**
| HubSpot | Salesforce | BigQuery |
| ----------- | ---------- | --------- |
| string | Text | STRING |
| number | Number | INT64 |
| date | Date | FLOAT64 |
| datetime | DateTime | BOOL |
| enumeration | Picklist | TIMESTAMP |
| bool | Checkbox | DATE |
***
Importing Contacts [#importing-contacts]
Import contacts from your CRM into Wexio People.

| **Update existing** | Update existing CRM records with Wexio data |
A live preview shows the estimated number of records to export before you start.
***
Sync History [#sync-history]
After running an import or export, you can view the sync history to track job status and results.
Each sync job shows:
| Field | Description |
| ------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
| **Status** | Completed, Failed, Processing, Pending, or Cancelled |
| **Started at** | When the job began |
| **Completed at** | When the job finished (if applicable) |
| **Records synced** | Total records successfully processed |
| **Records created** | New records created |
| **Records updated** | Existing records updated |

You can cancel a running job or clear completed job history.
***
CRM in Flows [#crm-in-flows]
You can also push contact data to your CRM automatically using the [CRM Card](/docs/flows/cards/crm) in flows. This lets you update CRM records as part of an automated conversation flow — for example, creating a lead in Salesforce after qualifying a contact.
# Integrations (/docs/settings/integrations)
Integrations connect Wexio to external platforms — messaging channels for customer conversations, CRMs for syncing contact data, and AI providers for powering assistants.

On channels that only support 1 file per message, additional attachments are sent as separate messages automatically.
Upload Validation [#upload-validation]
Before sending, files are validated for:
* **File type** — Must be a supported format for the current channel
* **File size** — Maximum size varies by channel and file type
* **Max files** — Maximum number of attachments per message (channel-dependent)
Upload Progress [#upload-progress]

# Media Button Messages (/docs/inbox/chat/messages/media-buttons)

How It Works [#how-it-works]
A media button message renders the media content at the top, followed by a row of interactive buttons. This is commonly used for rich interactive content like product cards or promotional messages.

# Pin Messages (/docs/inbox/chat/messages/pin)
Pin messages are notifications displayed when a message is pinned or unpinned in a Telegram chat.
How It Works [#how-it-works]

# Story Messages (/docs/inbox/chat/messages/story)
Story messages appear when a user mentions your account or replies to a story on Instagram or WhatsApp.
How It Works [#how-it-works]
When someone interacts with your story, Wexio displays a story message in the chat with:
* A **gradient ring** around the story preview (matching the platform style)
* The **story media** (photo or video) as a thumbnail
* The user's **reply text** if they sent a response
Story messages let you continue the conversation directly from the inbox without switching to the original platform.
# System Messages (/docs/inbox/chat/messages/system)
System messages are automatically generated by the platform to provide context about events that occur during a conversation.

* Page title
* Description snippet
* Thumbnail image (if available)
* Domain name

| ------------ | -------- | -------- | --------- | ----- |
| Basic text | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |

| Link preview | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |
# Unknown Messages (/docs/inbox/chat/messages/unknown)
Unknown messages are a fallback display for message types that Wexio doesn't yet support natively.
How It Works [#how-it-works]
When a message type is not recognized, Wexio displays:
* A type indicator icon
* Any available text content from the message
This ensures no messages are silently dropped — even unsupported types remain visible in the conversation thread.
# Messaging Channels (/docs/settings/integrations/channels)
Messaging channels let you connect external platforms — like Telegram, WhatsApp, Instagram, and Viber — directly to your Wexio inbox. Once connected, all incoming messages from a channel appear alongside your other conversations, and your team can reply without leaving Wexio.
Each channel creates a separate integration (multi-bot support), so you can connect multiple accounts or phone numbers from the same platform.
Channel Overview [#channel-overview]
| Channel | API Type | Auth Method | Messaging Window |
| ----------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------ | ----------------------------- | --------------------------- |
| [Telegram](/docs/settings/integrations/channels/telegram) | Bot API | Bot Token from @BotFather | No window (unrestricted) |
| [WhatsApp](/docs/settings/integrations/channels/whatsapp) | Cloud API via Meta | OAuth 2.0 Meta Business Login | 24-hour (templates outside) |
| [Instagram](/docs/settings/integrations/channels/instagram) | Graph API | OAuth 2.0 Meta Business Login | 24-hour (HUMAN\_AGENT tag) |
| [Viber](/docs/settings/integrations/channels/viber) | REST Bot API | Auth Token from Admin Panel | 24-hour |
Pausing & Resuming [#pausing--resuming]
Any channel integration can be **paused** to temporarily stop receiving messages from that channel. While paused:
* No new incoming messages are delivered to your inbox
* You cannot send outbound messages through the channel
* The connection remains configured — no need to re-authenticate
To resume, toggle the channel back on and messages will start flowing again immediately.
Channel Pages [#channel-pages]
Connect a Telegram bot — unrestricted messaging with rich interactive features.
Connect WhatsApp Business API with template messages and product catalogs.
Connect Instagram Direct Messages with quick replies and ice breakers.
Connect a Viber bot with rich keyboard grids and tracking data.
Each channel connection creates a separate integration. You can connect multiple bots or phone numbers from the same platform to serve different teams or use cases.
# Instagram (/docs/settings/integrations/channels/instagram)
Wexio integrates with Instagram via the Meta Graph API. Once connected, Instagram Direct Messages appear in your Wexio inbox, and your team can respond without switching apps.
Prerequisites [#prerequisites]
Before connecting, make sure you have:
* An Instagram **Business** or **Creator** account (personal accounts cannot receive API messages)
* A **Facebook Page** connected to your Instagram account
* **Admin access** to the Facebook Page
Not sure if your account is a Business account? Go to your Instagram profile → **Settings → Account type and tools → Switch to professional account** and choose Business or Creator.
Linking Instagram to a Facebook Page [#linking-instagram-to-a-facebook-page]
If your Instagram account is not yet linked to a Facebook Page:
1. Open Instagram → go to **Settings → Business → Connected accounts**.
2. Select **Facebook** and log in.
3. Choose the Facebook Page to link (or create a new one).
This step is required because Instagram messaging runs through the Meta platform, which routes through your Facebook Page.
Connecting Instagram [#connecting-instagram]
1. Go to **Settings → Integrations**.
2. Click **Connect** next to Instagram.
3. Click **Connect with Facebook** and log in to your Meta account.
4. Grant permissions for Wexio to manage your Instagram messages.
5. Select the **Facebook Page** that is linked to your Instagram Business account.
6. Click **Finish** — the webhook is auto-configured and your Instagram DMs now flow into Wexio.
Once connected, send a test DM to your Instagram Business account to confirm messages appear in your Wexio inbox.
Instagram is **user-initiated only** — the bot cannot start conversations. The user must message you first.
Troubleshooting Connection [#troubleshooting-connection]
| Problem | Solution |
| ------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Instagram account not appearing | Make sure your Instagram is a Business or Creator account and is linked to the Facebook Page you selected |

Wexio integrates with WhatsApp via the Meta Cloud API using OAuth 2.0 (Meta Business Login). Messages from your WhatsApp Business number appear in your Wexio inbox, and agents can reply directly.
Prerequisites [#prerequisites]
Before connecting, make sure you have:
* A [Meta Business account](https://business.facebook.com/) (you can create one during setup if needed)
* A phone number that can receive SMS or calls for verification
* Admin access to your Meta Business account
If your phone number is currently used with the WhatsApp personal app or WhatsApp Business app, you will need to delete that account first before using it with the API.
Phone Number Options [#phone-number-options]
| Option | Details |
| ----------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Use your own number** | Must be able to receive SMS or a call for OTP verification. Cannot be currently registered with another WhatsApp app |
| **Use a Meta virtual number** | Meta can provide a free virtual number during sign-up — no physical phone needed |
Connecting WhatsApp [#connecting-whatsapp]
1. Go to **Settings → Integrations**.
2. Click **Connect** next to WhatsApp.
3. Click **Connect with Facebook** and log in to your Meta account.
4. Grant permissions for Wexio to manage your WhatsApp Business account.
5. Select or create a **Meta Business portfolio** and **WhatsApp Business Account**.
6. Add your phone number (or choose a virtual number from Meta).
7. If using your own number, verify it with the OTP sent via SMS or call.
8. Review the permissions and click **Finish**.
The webhook is auto-configured — your WhatsApp number is now live in Wexio.
Once connected, send a test message to your WhatsApp Business number to confirm messages appear in your Wexio inbox.
Troubleshooting Connection [#troubleshooting-connection]

| Messages not arriving | Verify the number is not connected to another Business Solution Provider (BSP). Each number can only be active with one BSP at a time |
