To access your Profile settings:

  1. Select your profile icon, in the top right corner of your screen.
  2. Select Your settings.
  3. Select Profile in the settings sub-menu.

Profile Information

From the Profile Information section, you can upload a photo to your profile. Your photo will only be visible in Kimoby, next to your name, and not to your customers.

If you upload a photo to your account, it will be easier to identify your profile when viewing and analyzing your account's performance metrics. You can always delete your photo or leave it blank.

  1. Click Upload photo.
  2. Select your photo, and it will be added to your profile.

You will also be able to edit your information, such as your name, email, preferred language, job position, and reference ID.

Your preferred language is the language that will be used for all communications from Kimoby.

Your reference ID is the ID you have as a user in another software that is integrated with Kimoby. This means this number is only useful when you have an integration. Your reference ID will allow you to assign conversations automatically and personalize automations with the name of the service advisor working on your customer's vehicle.

Using the Away Status

You can turn on the away mode when leaving for vacation or when you are unavailable. Turning on the away status helps your team know how long you're unavailable and also who will be in charge of your conversations while you're away.

To access your Away Status settings:

  1. Select your profile icon in the top right corner of your screen.
  2. Select Your settings.
  3. Select Away Status in the settings sub-menu.

As soon as your away status is turned on, a yellow message bubble will appear in your account, in the center, at the top of your screen, as a reminder in case you are available and forget to turn it off.

You can also automatically reassign all new conversations to a user or a team of your choice and/or specify the expected date of return. The away status will be turned off at that date.

Turn on the Away Status

From your desktop:

  1. Turn on the Away mode.
  2. To reassign your conversations, click on Assign to and select the team of user of your choice from the drop-down menu.
    • If you assign all your conversations to another user that is away as well, the conversations will remain assigned to the same user and not the next assignee.
    • If you send a message to a customer while being in the away mode from the Conversations section, the customer will remain assigned to you.
  3. Select the date and time of your return in the Away until and Time of the day boxes.

From your mobile:

  1. Select the Settings Sleep (78) icon at the bottom of your screen.
  2. Select the Away status.
  3. Turn on the Set as away button.
  4. To reassign your conversations, select Assign conversations to... and choose the user or team of your choice from the drop-down menu.
  5. Select the date and time of your return by selecting Away until...

Everywhere your name is featured throughout the app, your name will appear in yellow with a small clock away right next to it so all the other users in your account will see that you are not available.

By hovering over the clock clock-png icon, a yellow bubble will appear, and if you have assigned your conversations to another user and/or have a return date, it will be displayed.
