🧩 Chat Attributes in Chakra

Chat Attributes let you store structured data against a chat — such as tracking codes, customer preferences, or profile details. These attributes can be updated automatically using chatbots or triggers to enrich the chat context.

➕ Adding a New Attribute

Follow these steps to create a custom chat attribute:

  1. Click "Add New" on the top-left corner above the attribute list.
  2. Choose "Standard Attribute" 🏷️
  3. Fill in the following details:
    • Name 📝 – A friendly name for your attribute (e.g., Delivery Preference)
    • Short ID 🆔 – A machine-readable identifier using only lowercase characters and underscores (e.g., delivery_pref).
      ⚠️ Avoid spaces or special characters!
    • Attribute Type 🔢 – Select the data type (e.g., Text, Number, Date, etc.)
  4. Click "Create"

Once created, these attributes can be automatically populated by chatbots or chat triggers, helping your team personalize and streamline conversations. 🎯
