When the user tries to edit the inbox configuration

In the inbox configuration's collaborators section:

  • When you add an agent in the Agent field, any user designated as an agent can see and access this inbox from the Conversation module. They can manage conversations in this inbox.

  • However, when you add a team in the Team field, users attempting to assign conversations to a specific team from the Conversation module will only see the teams that have been added to the related inbox. This restricts conversation assignment options to the teams associated with the particular inbox, ensuring that conversations are appropriately distributed among the specified teams.
