Assignment rules
Route conversations to the right agent automatically using round-robin or skill-based rules.
Assignment rules
Assignment rules let you automatically route new conversations to the right agent or team without manual triage.
How it works
When a new conversation arrives Winora evaluates your active assignment rules in order. The first rule whose conditions match is applied.
Creating a rule
- Go to Automations → Assignment rules.
- Click New rule.
- Set one or more conditions (channel, keyword, contact tag, etc.).
- Choose an action: assign to a specific agent, or use round-robin across a group.
- Save and enable the rule.
Round-robin assignment
When round-robin is selected, Winora distributes conversations evenly across all agents who are currently Online. Agents set to Away or Offline are skipped.
Manual override
Any agent can reassign a conversation at any time from the conversation detail panel - click the Assigned to dropdown and select a different agent.
Concurrency limits
Each agent has a maximum concurrent chat limit (default: 5). Round-robin assignment respects this limit and will skip agents who are at capacity. Admins can change individual limits from the Team page.
