Add first reply timestamp to conversation records for SLA

Automatically capture inbound message arrivals across Webhooks by Zapier, Formatter by Zapier, Code by Zapier, and your conversation API endpoint. Create and update when inbound message arrives, conversation payload ingests, or reply timestamp posts—so you can set first-reply timestamps, update conversation custom fields, and enforce SLA tracking without manual SLA checks.

How this automation protects your SLA timing

When inbound conversation payloads arrive, missed timestamps can break SLA reporting and trigger follow-up delays. This automation captures raw payloads and patches conversation records and timestamps—so your team can track first-reply timing without manual SLA checks.

  1. 1.Catch raw inbound conversation payload

    Integrate Webhooks by Zapier and messaging payload handling to capture the inbound conversation payload and pass it forward for first-reply formatting.
