The user receives a welcome email with login instructions.
Available roles

Tips
- Start with 2-3 agents — Add more as volume grows
- Use teams — Group agents by function (Sales, Support)
- Set availability — Agents should toggle "Away" when not working
- Train on canned responses — Helps new agents respond quickly
- Review permissions — Don't give everyone Admin access
