What is an omnichannel inbox?+
An omnichannel inbox puts customer messages from every channel (WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger, Telegram, email and website chat) into one shared list your team works from. In Flowyana it sits on the same platform as your CRM, quotations, invoices and stock, so a chat can become a lead without copying anything across.
Can multiple agents use one WhatsApp number?+
Yes. You connect one WhatsApp Business number and everyone with access answers from the same inbox under their own login. Each conversation is assigned by hand to a teammate, so everyone can see who is answering whom and nobody replies twice.
Does it use the official WhatsApp Business API?+
Yes. Flowyana connects to your own WhatsApp Business account on Meta’s official WhatsApp Business Platform, the service often called the WhatsApp Business API. You link the number from your Meta business account. Flowyana doesn’t resell WhatsApp messages, so any charges Meta makes are between you and Meta.
Can I use a shared WhatsApp inbox in the UAE and Saudi Arabia?+
Yes. The inbox works wherever your business can use WhatsApp Business, including the UAE, Saudi Arabia and the rest of the GCC. Each user picks their own workspace language, including Arabic laid out right to left, and your quick replies and templates can be written in any language.
Does Flowyana assign conversations automatically?+
Not today. A manager or agent assigns each conversation to a teammate. Taking turns automatically (round-robin) is available for leads captured from Meta and LinkedIn lead forms, not for conversations. There are no SLA timers on conversations either.
Can I send WhatsApp broadcasts to my customers?+
Yes. Pick an approved template and a contact list, added by hand or imported from a spreadsheet, then send now or schedule it. Each recipient’s status is tracked, and anyone who replies within 30 days becomes a lead in your CRM.
Is SMS included in the inbox?+
No. As of October 2026 the inbox covers WhatsApp Business, Instagram, Facebook Messenger, Telegram, email and website live chat. SMS is not offered.
Can I put website live chat, WhatsApp and email in one inbox?+
Yes, that is exactly what it does. Website chat works on its own; WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger, Telegram and email connect through your plan’s Integrations. All of them land in the same conversation list with the same assignment, tags and quick replies.
How is this different from a dedicated WhatsApp inbox tool?+
Dedicated messaging tools stop at the conversation. Flowyana is a whole business platform with the inbox built in: the lead a chat creates is the same record your team quotes, invoices and takes payment from. If you only need messaging and want automatic routing, a dedicated tool may suit you better.
What do I need to buy to get the omnichannel inbox?+
The inbox comes with CRM, Support and Bookings plans from Growth and with Rentals Business, and other plans can add it. Website chat runs on any of these; the other channels also need Integrations, which those Growth and Business plans include.
Is there internal team chat?+
No. The omnichannel inbox is for conversations with customers. Your team works together through comments with @mentions, notes and files on the records themselves, such as a lead, an invoice or a ticket.
Can a chat become a support ticket?+
A chat becomes a CRM lead in one step, linked to an existing client or contact. There is no one-step chat-to-ticket or chat-to-task today; your team creates the ticket or task on the client’s record.
Does it show the customer’s orders next to the chat?+
The conversation shows the leads and contact it is linked to, and live-chat visitors come with their page, location, device and campaign. Orders and invoices live on the client’s record, not inside the conversation.
