When a customer service agent handles a conversation from email, message or chat it would be nice to assign an issue category, so an agent can flag the conversation as: shipping issue, or missing account information. So within dashboards directors can see the types of issues popping up. **\*\*SHORT-TERM SOLUTION EDIT - DEC, 15 2020\*\*** 👋Hi all, here’s my short term solution: 1. Create New Property on Contact Object: i.e. **Latest Reason for Contacting** 1. Add Property to Right Sidebar. _For easy access_: ![williamwright_0-1608047374445.png](https://d2qpr2jzcazej7.cloudfront.net/original/3X/5/3/53bbf55da3fa5e614ad950896b705318b884f978.png) 1. Train Customer Service Team, and Optimize Property Values 2. Create Report of Latest Reason for Contacting: ![williamwright_1-1608047516893.png](https://d2qpr2jzcazej7.cloudfront.net/original/3X/d/f/df72d308c8460161d92c2548196e76639eaf1ff5.png) 1. Distribute to Teams for Continual Improvement, or Automate Responses 😎 2. If you have any questions on my solution email me at liam@trueinteraction.com _\*\*FYI works great with forms too._ ---

My team needs this in order to filter and report on conversations properly. I don’t understand why conversation tagging was sunsetted. ---

This is a feature that was requested by our upper management so they can see what kind of messages we are getting. Would be great if HubSpot could make this a feature. ---

Would highly appreciate if this was a feature as well. Hubspot chat is definitely lacking features to better understand the nature of messages incoming. ---

This is a MUST!!! Most chat platforms have this feature, if I’m generating a report and there’s no way I can segment the type of conversations my team had, that’s a problem. Conversation tags can easily solve this. ---

I have similar issue. I wanted to categorise the purpose of chats coming in, particularly the number of leads. I am unable to do so now. Tagging would be a simple solution to this problem. ---

Yes, we need this as well. I have never worked with a live chat system that does not have this functionality. ---

Yes, we would really appreciate the option of tagging chat conversations in HubSpot. We need a way to tag or flag different types of conversations and/or conversations for example or review. We recently transferred from an independent chat provider to HubSpot and did have these capabilities in our other system - disappointed to see that this is not available (or not available any longer?) from HubSpot. This is a request from our business owner and top executives - we hope to see it fulfilled soon! ---

We really need this! 😞 Is almost impossible to actually use HubSpot Inbox you a team can’t even know what that conversation was about in a report. Like, how many billing issues we had? How many bug reports we had? And using Ticket for that is a pain! This is a really basic feature that any support platform has. ---

For now, we’ve stuck with creating tickets for each chat, since tickets give us the option to filter by multiple fields, including custom fields. It’s not ideal, but it’s worked somewhat for us in the interim. ---

We really need this in order to report our main issues too, so we can address and prioritize solutions. ---

+1 on this idea : it would be so nice to have this option into the conversation section, as the bypass alternative is quite tricky : --\> create automatically a ticket for each conversation, create a ticket custom property with several options predefined, each option being the tag/ flag we want to monitor ---

@alguil Exactly! That’s what we’ve done where needed, and it’s really too complex to be sustainable. ---
