Write a private note and mention a teammate with @

Last updated: 26 September 2026 · 4 min read

A private note is a message for your team inside a conversation. It is not sent to the customer.

Steps

  1. 1

    Switch to note mode

    In the conversation, choose “Private Note” above the reply box. The box changes color: only agents see what you write. Shortcut: Alt + P switches to a note, Alt + L to a reply.

  2. 2

    Write the note

    Type the text and click “Add Note”. The note shows in the conversation in a different color.

  3. 3

    Mention a teammate

    Type @ in the note and pick your teammate's name from the list. They get a notification, and the conversation shows up in their notifications.

  4. 4

    Go back to replying

    To write to the customer, choose “Reply” again. Check the mode before you send: text written in note mode does not go to the customer.
