The inbox

The Inbox collects replies from all three channels, grouped into conversations so you can see the whole thread with a contact.

A conversation is Open or Closed. Close a conversation when you’ve dealt with it, so your open list shows only what still needs an answer.

Each message in a conversation is marked as inbound (from the contact) or outbound (from you), and shows its status: received, sent, delivered, read or failed.

Inbound SMS and WhatsApp replies reach Outreach through a webhook that you configure with your provider (Twilio or Meta). Until that’s set up, replies arrive at your provider but not in the inbox.
