Monitor real-time customer sentiment
Applies to: Dynamics 365 Contact Center—embedded, Dynamics 365 Contact Center—standalone, and Dynamics 365 Customer Service
As an agent, when you interact with your customers, you want to know the sentiments they're experiencing in real time. Analysis of the customer's satisfaction level helps you understand how serious the problem is and develop a course of action to solve it. In the application you can see the customer's satisfaction levels instantly while you communicate with the customer.
View real-time customer sentiment
A customer's real-time sentiment is displayed at the top of the communication panel. The sentiment icon changes dynamically based on the six most recent customer messages sent to you.
When you get an incoming conversation request, you accept the request and communicate with the customer. By default, you see the neutral sentiment icon, which indicates that at this moment the customer satisfaction level is neutral. As you continue to communicate with the customer, the sentiment icon changes dynamically according to the conversation.
When a conversation is escalated from a bot, the sentiment icon you see is based on the previous messages exchanged between the customer and the bot.
Understand real-time customer sentiment
The sentiment analysis is an automatic and unbiased measurement of customer satisfaction levels in real time.

Note
The real-time sentiment is shown to you only if the supervisor or administrator has enabled sentiment analysis for a queue where you've been added as a member.
If profanity is detected in English, the sentiment is displayed as Negative or Very negative.
