HelloScreen Session Basics

During the Session

There are a set of features that help you guide your client through the session. Some features may not appear depending on what your team owner has enabled:

Highlighter

Highlight parts of the page using the highlighter.

Spotlight

The spotlight tool draws attention to a part of the page by greying out everything else around it.

Cursor

A more hands-on approach than the spotlight or highlighter, the cursor tool allows you to scroll, type, and click on their screen.

Audio Calling

Start an audio call over the browser by clicking on the green phone icon at the bottom of the page.

Notes

Take notes during the call; if you have an Intercom integration, these will be pushed to the ticket.

Bring a Teammate into the Session

Need to bring in the next tier support or a topic specialist? Send them the page URL and get them to join the session (including audio if on a call). Just make sure they also have an Upscope account!

Even if you leave, as long as the other person stays on the session, it can be handed off and continue without you.

Ending the Session

The session ends when:

• You or the client click on End Session in the bottom left corner of the screen
• The client closes the tab and any other tabs that have your site open
• 10 minutes of inactivity (unless there is an active audio call)

Post Session

Rating

You’ll be asked to rate the session, where you can leave any feedback or report an issue with the session. We appreciate your thoughts and are always happy to help if there is a problem!

Notes

Some integrations involve pushing any notes taken during the call into the ticket associated with the session.

Recordings

Session recordings can be found in the app. If your organization has enabled them, every session is recorded (apart from audio).

If you have settings rights, you can view them along with other details of previous Co-Browsing API sessions here.
