Agents can set an external name in the Gladly Profile to attain a level of anonymity. This way, they have some control over exposing their name in outbound communications. When used in an Answer, the external name replaces Agent's Name and Agent's First Name variable. For outbound emails, the Agent's external name and email address appear on outbound emails.
External Name field is not visible unless External Name setting is activated
The External Name field in the profile is only visible if this feature is activated.
Because this setting is active by default, you must deactivate the External Name setting if you want to stop using external names for outbound emails and Answers.
