View Visitors Without a Client Profile
Sometimes a person chats with the bot in a messenger or on the website but does not yet have a client card in the system. Without Contacts mode shows such visitors in a separate list — for viewing and search only, without broadcasts or bulk actions.
When It Will Be Useful
- You need to find someone who contacted the bot but is not yet a client in the database.
- You want to view visitor data or the last steps in the bot scenario.
- You need to find a visitor's Chat ID for further support work.
What's Important to Know
- Without Contacts — a mode for viewing visitors without a client profile. The tooltip next to the checkbox explains that only viewing and search are available — broadcasts and the Actions menu are disabled.
- In this mode, the left filter panel and Actions menu are hidden.
- Search works by Chat ID only.
Before You Start
You are logged in with operator rights or higher. You have navigated to the Clients module via Menu -> Clients.
Step-by-Step Instructions
- In the upper part of the Clients module, find the Without Contacts checkbox.
- Hover over the checkbox to read the tooltip about this mode.
- Enable Without Contacts — the table switches to the visitor list.
- Review the table columns:
- ID — record identifier;
- Chat ID — chat identifier in the channel;
- Channel — messenger or widget the visitor used;
- Bot ID — bot (process) the visitor talked to;
- Created at — record creation date;
- JSON data — button to view stored visitor data;
- Last Steps — Show recent steps button to view the last steps in the bot scenario.
- To find a specific visitor, enter a Chat ID in the Search field and press Enter.
- To view stored data, click the view button in the JSON data column.
- To see where the visitor stopped in the bot, click Show recent steps in the Last Steps column.
- To return to the standard client list, disable Without Contacts.
What Happens After
The table shows visitors without a client profile. Broadcasts, the Actions menu, and the left filter panel are unavailable — only viewing, Chat ID search, and viewing data or bot steps.
How to Verify Everything Worked
- Confirm that Without Contacts is enabled and the table shows visitor columns (Chat ID, Channel, etc.).
- Check that the left filter panel and Actions menu are not displayed.
- Try searching by a known Chat ID — the matching record should appear in the table.
