For Inbox Settings, this sets the behavior of Stella Inbox during operation. The configuration affects both the result of how Stella Inbox will present to Stella and on MS Teams. Options include:

Send files to clients from outside of Teams Enabling this option will allow agents to use the #Send_File command and use the website hosted by Stella Inbox to send files to clients. The file will be stored in Stella's Inbox for 3 months.

Ticketing System

Live Chat Ticketing System Mode This option allows the admin to select the ticketing system to be used by Stella Inbox. 

The ticketing system controls part of the live chat session assignment policy and live chat session handling policy. This affects the privacy level of ticket handling, and also the customer service flows as well.


Common Live Chat: Common live chat mode sends live chat tickets to the designated live chat channel directly. Agents will reply to clients in the live chat channel ticket sent to, and all agents can see the conversation.


Ticket Picking: Ticket picking live chat mode sends a live chat picking ticket to the designated live chat channel. Agents click “Pick Ticket” to transfer the ticket to their own personal channel setup. The live chat session will be sent to a personal live chat channel, and agents can reply to the client there. And other agents may not read the conversation if the personal live chat channel is configured in a separate private team. 


Admin Assign: Admin assigns live chat mode and sends a live chat assign ticket to the designated live chat channel. This mode allows admins to assign the ticket to other agents. Instead of letting the agents choose which ticket to handle, the admin assigns tickets to different agents to let the best-suited agent handle live chat requests. To assign an agent to handle the ticket, the admin first chooses the agent in the message card. Then click “Assign Ticket”. 


The live chat session will be sent to the personal live chat channel configured by the agent. The agent will handle the ticket on their personal live chat channel.


Round Robin: Round robin ticketing mode sends the live chat session to all agents configured with personal live chat channels evenly. The round-robin queue is shared by the organization in Stella's Inbox. For multiple live chat channels set to round-robin mode, they use the same counter and same set of agents. A common live chat channel is still required for incoming live chats to send to for this mode, even the live chats will not enter the channel. 



  1. Select your desired live chat ticketing Mode.




Admin Account 


The admin account set in the new setup page defines the username and password to be used in the configuration page of Stella Inbox. There is only 1 configuration account per tenant applied for Stella Inbox. The default Username and Password is “admin”.
