Automatic Distribution is a feature that fairly distributes Support Service chats among agents. 

When a new chat is received, the system checks if distribution is active and if there is an online agent with a number of simultaneous chats below the established limit. 

If an available agent is found, Zenvia Customer Cloud automatically assigns the chat to that agent, opening a new tab with the chat in progress.

Learn how to configure these settings and establish these limits in this article.
