How to use the auto-reply feature?


Auto reply: It's an out-of-office feature that lets you send custom messages to customers when you're unavailable.


Step1:  Login to the Controlhippo dashboard:  https://dashboard.controlhippo.co


Step 2: Navigate to the Settings option from the menu.



Step 3: Navigate to the Workspace setting in which you will find an option of “Auto Reply”




Step 4: You can turn the auto-reply feature ON/OFF from here.



Step 5: If you turn on the auto-reply, click the pencil icon to edit the message you want to send to your contacts.



Step 6: After that, you can add your time zone based on your locality.



Step 7: You can set your out-of-office timings so that an automatic reply message is sent when you're unavailable.

  • For example, select the day(s) you wish to set your unavailable hours (e.g., Monday, Tuesday, etc.).Click on the time fields to enter your unavailable start and end times. 

  • For instance, if you are unavailable from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM on Monday, choose Monday and set the time range accordingly.

  • If you need to add more time slots for that day, use the + button.

  • To remove a time slot, simply click the delete (trash can) icon next to it.



Step 8: If the Always On toggle is enabled, the auto-reply message will be sent for the entire day, regardless of your specified hours




Step 9: Then click on the "Save" button.


Important Note:

  • Only admins have access to this feature.
