I would love to have the ability to set workload management by channel.

For instance, with live channels I need to keep the number of conversations limited so as not to overwhelm. However, for email tickets I would like them to auto route limitlessly as those do not have the same time constraints. Therefore, any one agent would only have one chat conversation (or however many I choose) in their inbox at any given time but could have multiple tickets in their inbox to work on between live conversations. ​@Gerald Prado

Hi @Nate E. 

Jennifer here from Intercom 👋

That is a great idea so I will pass this suggestion on and keep my fingers crossed for you 🤞

Whenever we do release new features, we announce them on the Product Changes page, so I would recommend keeping an eye there too.

Hi Jennifer, has there been any further discussion around this one? It’s definitely something that holds us back in our business since we utilize phone heavily but do not want chats coming in while we take phone calls. However, we would like to be able to have multiple chats coming in at the same time.
