  • Conversation Insights is available on the Sprinklr platform for all Sprinklr Insights customers and users. For more information, see – Availability of Conversation Insights.

  • We have a limit of up to 100 reports per customer environment, i.e. each customer can create up to 100 Conversation Insights reports.

Single-click on the Cluster label

When you single-click on any cluster label, that particular cluster will be highlighted. Besides, nodes connected with that particular cluster will also be highlighted so the relationship can be seen clearly. Upon doing that, the right pane will be updated with the information about the selected cluster: List of Top-subclusters by Volume (if any), Top Keywords, and Conversation Stream. This is demonstrated by the GIF below:

Double-click on the Cluster label

When you double-click on the cluster label, the widget will zoom in to the particular cluster and all the sub-clusters within it will be shown. You can come out of that particular cluster by simply pressing the Esc key or clicking the back button on the widget. This is demonstrated by the GIF below:

Right-click on Cluster label

When you right-click on the cluster label, you will see different options –



  • Highlight: This is similar to single-clicking on the cluster label.

  • Drilldown: This is similar to double-clicking on the cluster label.

  • Rename: Clicking this option will allow you to rename the cluster label.

  • Hide/Unhide Cluster: You can hide clusters that seem irrelevant to your analysis for reporting purposes. Clicking the Hide Cluster option will hide the cluster from the cluster map widget, right-pane, and deep-dive dashboard. To view the list of hidden clusters, click the Unhide Clusters button placed below the Zoom icons. You can unhide any cluster by clicking the Unhide button against the hidden clusters' names. This is demonstrated by the GIF below:

You can toggle the size of the labels between three options depending on your preference:

  1. No Labels

  2. Short Labels

  3. Long Labels (available by default)

Sprinklr's Alert Manager



The longer labels for sub-clusters contain longer form titles with additional context captured, which will be helpful in generating rich and granular insights around these clusters.

Time lapse

The time-lapse feature allows you to track the growth of individual clusters/sub-clusters and how the relationships between them change over time.

As you press Play, the time-lapse will start - with the time window beginning to move. As the window moves, you will see how the conversation clusters were at the instant of time & how they gradually changed over the full duration.

A volume chart of mentions for each cluster is also shown to identify when conversation pertaining to a particular cluster is peaked.



It consists of the following elements:

  1. Play/Pause button: You can control the time-lapse using the play/pause button to start or pause it.

    

  2. Time Selector window: The time selector window is an interactable window that can be moved, played, or paused on the time range. The size of this window is pre-set according to the total time duration of the report.

    

  3. Reset button: Reset button will reset the window to the default state - start of the total time duration.

    

  4. Volume Charts: Volume charts over time for each cluster shown in the graph are also displayed.

Apart from playing the time-lapse over the entire duration of the report, you can also:

  • Pause the time lapse at any particular time-interval

  • Select or Drag the time selector window at any particular time interval

In both these cases, the right pane will update with information specific to the time interval.



Note:

  • Aggregation over time is automatically adjusted according to the overall time period of the report.

  • We will support exporting the Time-lapse video as a GIF in later versions.

Widget-level options

There are three options available at the widget level: Add to Custom Dashboard, Translate, Export and Get External Link.



  1. Add to Custom Dashboard: You can add the Conversation Insights report to any custom Listening dashboard as a separate widget. To do that, simply click the Add to Custom Dashboard option. This will open the Add to Custom Dashboard popup window where you can select the custom Listening dashboard to which you want to add the widget. Or, you can also create a new custom Listening dashboard directly from here and add this widget to that dashboard. Get familiar with the scope and limitations to add the Conversation Insights report to any custom Listening dashboard.

    

  2. Translate: Other than adding the Conversation Insights reports to a custom Listening dashboard as a separate widget, you also have an option to translate the report. To do that, simply click the Translate option and select the language into which you want to translate the Conversation Insights report.

    

    You can switch back to your original language by clicking

    Show Original

    in the options available at the widget level.

    

  3. Export: You can also export the Conversation Insights widget as a PNG and/or Excel file so that you can use it in your presentation and also you can send it as an email attachment to your colleagues.

    

Create External Shareable Link

The Get External Link option available at the widget-level options allows you to create an external shareable link for your Conversation Insights report and share that with external users who do not have access to Sprinklr platform.



Clicking Get External Link will open the External Sharing popup window. Here you need to define a date range and the expiry date until which you want to keep the external shareable link valid. Besides, you can protect your external link by applying password protection. Once done, click Generate URL.



Upon clicking the Generate Link button, the external shareble link will be generated that can be copied by clicking the Copy icon. You can then share this URL with any external users so that they can view the Conversation Insights report without logging into Sprinklr.



View report of clusters

You can also launch a deep-dive dashboard for any cluster from the right pane to get deeper insights into the conversation as well as the audience behind each cluster. You can launch the deep-dive dashboard for the overall conversation as well.

To launch the standard cluster deep-dive dashboard, click the View Report button in the top right corner.



This will open the deep-dive dashboard where you can switch between clusters using the Dashboard Switcher (placed next to the title of the dashboard as shown in the screenshot).



Note:

Cluster Deep-dive Dashboard is only available for first-level clusters & overall conversation.

The dashboard has 2 tabs: Overview and Cluster Comparisons along with drill-down capability.
