    Recover conversations from an unresponsive teammate: Enable recovery, 1. Open Admin > AI & Automation > Workflows.
  2. Find Unresponsive teammate recovery and enable it.

  3. Choose how long a customer message can wait without a newer public reply.

  4. Save the workflow settings.

How recovery chooses the next owner

  • DobroDesk checks only assigned conversations with a customer message newer than the latest public reply.
  • The current assignee is excluded from the next assignment attempt.
  • The next teammate must be eligible, available and below their assignment limit.
  • If no teammate is eligible the conversation returns unassigned to its Inbox.

Every automatic ownership change is recorded as a system event and sends the normal assignment or unassigned notification.
