Why can't a supervisor see all conversations in Atom?

Why can't a supervisor see all conversations in Atom?

In this article, you will learn how to troubleshoot conversation visibility issues in supervisor profiles in Atom.

🛠️ Troubleshooting section (step by step)

  • Verify the user's role

  • Go to the Atom Settings section.

  • Go to "User Management" and search for the name of the affected user.

  • Make sure their role is "Supervisor" and not "Administrator" or "Agent."

  • Review the groups assigned to the supervisor

Navigate to the supervisor's profile in the user settings and check which groups they are assigned to.

  • Compare conversation groups with assigned groups

Confirm that the conversations the supervisor cannot see belong to groups they are not assigned to.

  • Evaluate custom permissions (if applicable)

If your AtomChat instance has customizations, check if there are additional rules that limit visibility.

✅ Possible solutions

  • ✅Assign the supervisor to the necessary groups If you want them to see more conversations, simply assign the supervisor to the relevant groups from the user settings.

  • ✅Change the user's role to administrator If the user is expected to have full visibility of all conversations, consider changing their role to administrator. Remember that this grants broader permissions.

📝 Additional notes

  • An administrator can see all conversations, regardless of groups.

  • A supervisor can only see conversations from the groups they are assigned to.

  • This logic cannot be modified from the standard configuration panel.

💡 Practical example / Use case

Situation:

María, sales team supervisor, reports that she can only see one chat when she should be able to see several.

Diagnosis:

María is only assigned to one group, so she can only see conversations from that group.

Solution applied:

By assigning her to the missing groups from her profile, she was able to view all the necessary conversations.

☎️ When to contact support?

Contact support if:

  • The user has the correct permissions and still cannot see the chats.

  • Group changes are not reflected after several minutes.
