This is when an auto-close conversations by time feature comes in to save the day. ⚡

In this article, you will learn how to set up a chatbot with an auto-close chat by time feature to keep your chat logs organized and clutter-free.

What is an auto-close chat by time feature?

Auto-close chat by time is a feature that automatically wraps up a chat conversation when there's been no activity for a pre-set period. This keeps your chat logs neat and tidy, eliminating clutter from dormant conversations. 💪

Ready-to-use chatbot templates with auto-close chat by time feature

One of the easiest ways to set up an auto-close chat by time is by using a chatbot. Our Kommo chatbot comes with ready-to-use chatbot templates that include an auto-close chat by time feature among many others.

Here is how we’ve used it in Kommo.

Use Case: Book Promotion

When we launched our book Delivered we offered our Instagram followers a limited-time free download link in exchange for a DM or comment. 💁‍♀️

The response was overwhelming, with hundreds of followers jumping on the opportunity, leading to new chat conversations opening every minute. 😵‍

Going through each chat and closing it manually would have been a tedious task. 😮‍

To make our lives easier, we decided to use Salesbot's auto-close chat by time feature, setting it to 5 days (or more), which automatically ended inactive chats after the set time had passed.

And just like that, we’ve organized our chats with zero human effort required. 😉
