Understanding The Engage Screen
Statusbrew Engage Inbox lets you manage messages from multiple social media platforms in one place.
From the Statusbrew dashboard, click Engage to access your social inbox.
My Inbox Pane (A)
The My Inbox Pane categorizes conversations as follows:
All: Displays all conversations across different social media platforms. This is the default view.
Assigned to me: Shows conversations specifically assigned to you.
Shared with me: Contains conversations where you were added as a watcher.
Priority: Contains conversations marked as Priority.
Next to each inbox, you'll see the count of open conversations (e.g., All - 56).
The search bar at the top allows you to quickly locate any inbox in the sidebar without scrolling through the entire list by entering keywords.
A red dot badge highlights unread conversations in the Shared with Me and Assigned to Me inboxes. The indicators update in real time and disappear automatically when all conversations in that inbox are read.
Folders (B)
The sidebar contains two types of folders:
Default Folders
The Engage sidebar has three default folders, which are automatically created when a user signs up for Statusbrew.
Views Folder
Views allow you to filter conversations based on various criteria.
Team Inboxes Folder
A Team Inbox is designed to handle specific types of conversations. It allows you to move preferred conversations from various social media platforms manually or automatically.
Brand Keywords Folder
Brand Keywords help you monitor reactions to your product, brand, or topics beyond your social feed. Search for keywords, hashtags, and brands on X (Twitter), Instagram, Reddit, Threads, YouTube, and Web (blogs and news) to uncover trends.
