History

Review past conversations between users and bots in NLX's Dialog Studio

What's History?

History provides useful information on conversations that have taken place with your deployed bots. Viewing conversation information allows you to troubleshoot unique or common issues, pinpoint where one or more intent flows could be more efficient, where users might be losing interest, or where additional automations are needed.

Access

Quickly access History through a bot's edit page under its Overview tab.

Using History

To view the results of conversation histories, you'll work within the context of a History tab. You may apply filters to the Main default tab or create new tabs and define a preset of filters for quick access to information you need. You may also adjust any filters to existing tabs to automatically refine results (does not save the filter for future visits unless in edit mode with the tab).

Results table

Each row of the results table represents a unique conversation session with the following details:

  • Date: Day and time a conversation session started

  • Channel: The bot channel used for the conversation

  • Duration: Length of the conversation session (in seconds)

  • Intent message: The initial user utterance submitted in a conversation (N/A indicates unengaged user)

  • Tags: Displays nodes that have been visited by the user with Analytics tags applied

  • NLP score: Confidence level of the bot in routing users to an intent

  • Intents: All intent flows invoked during the conversation

Add a tab

  • Navigate to History > click + Add tab

  • Enter a name for the tab (might reference a channel, specific bot, or region, for example)

  • Select from one or more filter dropdowns to create a preset of parameters for conversations you wish to view

  • When done, click Save

For additional edits to existing tabs, select the tab name and click the edit icon that appears.

You may adjust filters to existing tabs to automatically refine results; however, this does not save the applied filter(s) for future visits unless saving them while in edit mode with the tab.
