Use the portal in the mobile app

Portal in the mobile app lets you create cases quickly and interact with support agents on the go. The app sends push notifications when the case status changes or an agent sends a new message. You can use the app even if you have no internet access. After the connection is restored, the app uploads the changes to Creatio. Learn more in a separate article: Get started with the mobile app setup.

To get started, install the mobile app. Learn more in a separate article: Install the app.

Launch the app on your device. Then, enter your site URL, tap Next and log in to the site as a portal user (Fig. 1).

The Cases section lets you:

  • Create cases.

  • Add images and files required for troubleshooting to cases.

  • View details of registered cases.

  • Interact with support specialists.

Create a new case​

  1. Go the Cases section. To do this, tap scr_appeal_buttonmenu.png → Cases.

  2. Tap the scr_appeal_buttonadd.png button. This opens the New case box.

  3. Fill out the case profile:

    1. Select the case category to accelerate case classification and transfer cases to dedicated experts faster: “Service request” or “Incident.” The field is required.

    2. Elaborate on the case in the Description field (optional).

    3. Attach files to the case (optional). To do this:

      • Tap the btn_mobile_attach.png Attach button.

      • Specify the source of the files to attach.

      • Select the relevant files. By default, you can upload files up to 10 Mb. On the Attachments tab of the case record, you can view any attachments added when creating the case or as part of a conversation with support agent.

        note

        The administrator of the main Creatio application can change the maximum attachment file size.

  4. Tap the scr_appeal_buttonapprove.png button.

As a result, a new case will be created and added to support processing queue immediately (Fig. 2).

note

We recommend filling out the Description field when you create a case to ensure support agents receive the information required to solve the case. If you leave the Description field empty when you create a case, Creatio will populate the field with the value of the Category field.

Reply to messages from support agents​

You receive a push notification when a support specialist sends you a new message. To reply to the message:

  1. Open the Cases section. To do this, tap scr_appeal_buttonmenu.png → Cases.

  2. Open the case on which you need to reply.

  3. Go to the Processing tab. Enter the message, attach files if necessary, and tap the scr_appeal_buttonenter.png button.

The app displays conversations with support agents as chats (Fig. 3).
