Our Growth plan now gives you the power to assign contacts, cases, and opportunities to entire teams. We’ve expanded this feature to our Gmail add-on, making collaboration even easier.

Assigning users in the Gmail Add-on just got better

Previously, when assigning a case, opportunity, or task in the Gmail add-on, you would see a dropdown containing usernames. Here you could click on the user you want to assign to a case, opportunity, or task.

Now, you’ll see their user name along with a new Change button.

How it Works:

  • Clicking Change opens a new screen showing both users and teams (if you’re on the Growth plan).
  • Click Assign next to a user to assign to them—and if they have a default team, that team too.
  • Clicking on a team takes you to another screen listing the team members.
    • Choose Assign next to the team to assign to the entire group.
    • Or, assign to an individual user and their team.

Your Capsule user role determines which users or teams you can assign to, ensuring you don’t accidentally lose access to a record. Restricted users can’t assign records to others. Instead, any record they create will always be assigned to them. If a record with a stored Gmail thread is reassigned, the storing of that thread will be disabled.

Tag Contacts, Cases, and Opportunities in Gmail

Be sure to make the most of tags. When adding a contact, case, or opportunity, you’ll see a Tags section.

How it works:

  • Select a tag from the dropdown menu, and it’ll be added to the list.
  • Need to remove a tag? Just click the X next to it.
  • Once done, hit Save or Save & Store Conversation to add the record to Capsule.
