Desk supports Facebook Messenger integration, allowing system-level management of user messages from Messenger.
Note:
When your business has multiple channels for user inquiries, it is recommended that you choose this method to unify the hosting of user inquiries from multiple channels (such as in-APP customer service, WhatsApp, Facebook) to our workspace. Agents can handle inquiries from multiple channels within a single workspace, significantly improving response efficiency.
