Canned Responses
Save reusable replies with shortcuts for faster inbox conversations
Canned Responses
Canned responses are saved replies your team can insert into inbox conversations with a couple of keystrokes — for greetings, refund policies, troubleshooting steps, or anything you type repeatedly.
Creating Canned Responses
- Go to Settings → Canned Responses
- Click Add response
- Fill in:
- Title — a short label (e.g. "Greeting")
- Shortcut — what you'll type to insert it (e.g.
/greet,/refund) - Category — optional grouping
- Content — the reply text
Using Them in the Inbox
In any inbox conversation, type the shortcut (e.g. /refund) in the reply
box — the matching canned response is inserted, ready to edit before
sending.
Example Set
| Shortcut | Content |
|---|---|
/greet | Hi! Thanks for reaching out — how can I help you today? |
/refund | I understand you'd like a refund. Could you share your order number so I can look into it? |
/hold | Let me check that for you — one moment please. |
/close | Is there anything else I can help you with today? |
Keep responses short and personal — canned text works best as a starting point you tweak per conversation, not a wall of boilerplate.
