Using Facebook Messenger in Pipedrive
Conversations within your Messaging Inbox are sorted by the last update date. This means that the most recent conversation will appear at the top, and the oldest conversation will appear at the bottom.
Every conversation will automatically display the last thirty messages exchanged. To see the historical messages, scroll up in the conversation.
In the Messaging Inbox, you can create a deal or lead and connect them with the new conversation. Alternatively, you can link a conversation to existing deals or leads. You will see the options to add a new or link to existing items on the right-hand side of your screen.
Every message sent through Pipedrive should sync to Facebook Messenger and vice-versa.
