Carousel and Rich Text Carousel Templates

Carousel Template

A carousel is a list of card assets that are stacked side by side and can be scrolled horizontally.

You can create a carousel template in Digital Asset Manager to send it on Sprinklr Live Chat. Your customers can easily send a message in the conversation thread by selecting one of the options on this template. A carousel can have 10 cards (carousel elements), and each card can have 5 buttons.

After creating a carousel template in the Digital Asset Manager, it can be sent by creating an auto-response rule in Rule Engine.

Enable automatic scroll

You can enable automatic scroll for carousels by setting the duration for automatic scrolling in milliseconds. This feature ensures seamless navigation through the carousel content without manual intervention. Additionally, users will notice indicators in the form of dots representing the number of elements within the carousel. Hovering over any element will trigger a pause, allowing users to pause the automatic scrolling temporarily for closer inspection or interaction with specific content.

Provide a title for your Carousel Element 1. You can bold, italicize, underline, and strikethrough the text.

Description

Button 1

Buttons contain click and action properties that define the type of action set on user click operation. Enter the following details:

Label: Enter a label for button 1. It should not exceed 20 characters.

Tracking ID: This ID will be used in the button click reporting

Action: Select action as Text, URL, or Phone call.

When the Text button is clicked, the label of the button is captured as the user text response.

When the URL button is clicked, no response from the user is captured, instead they are redirected to the configured URL in a new tab. Check the box to open url in same tab.

Clicking on the Phone Call button, the users will be presented with a menu allowing them to choose how they would want to make the call. Please make sure to prefix the international dialing code before the number.

Button stacking direction

It allows you to specify how buttons are arranged within a layout. You can choose between three stacking directions: Row, Grid, or Column. When selecting the Grid option, you have further customization options by specifying the number of columns. This can be set to either "Automatic," where the system determines the optimal number of columns based on the available space, or you can manually select a number from 1 to 4 columns. This flexibility enables you to tailor the button layout according to your design preferences and the available space on the interface.

Rich Text Carousel Template

For a Rich Text Carousel asset, you can use rich text formatting, for example, bold, italicize, underline, strikethrough, and hyperlink the text. You can also utilize the Source Code option to create customized and dynamic asset by integrating data from internal or external API calls. For instance, variables such as amount, ratings, or status can be dynamically populated from API responses.

Moreover, you have the flexibility to design interactive elements by making desired buttons clickable and defining actions. When clicked, these buttons can either open an external URL or trigger a text reply from the customer's side. Additionally, you have the option to pass a tracking ID, enabling comprehensive reporting on button clicks.
