Description

Optimal Speaker Separation |
Most video and voice call providers identify speakers on the call. However, in cases where that information isn’t identified or shared, optimal speaker separation helps to create transcripts and call insights. This includes non-English calls, video calls where the transcript isn’t shared, and voice calls that use one channel for transmission (mono calls). |
Related Record Matching |
Automatically match calls to related records in Salesforce. The setting looks at call owner details, contacts related to opportunities through opportunity contact role, and related opportunities to accounts for internal users or contacts, based on who was on the call. |
Assign User the Appropriate Permissions
You can assign permission sets to Conversation Insight users so they can process calls and generate automated insights. Calls placed before users are assigned Einstein Conversation Insights permission sets aren’t processed. Additionally, the recordings aren’t available on voice and video call records. The permissions you assign depend on your licenses and system configuration.
- Navigate to Setup.
- Enter
Einstein Conversation Insights
in the Quick Find box. Select General Settings.
- On the Settings page, navigate to Assign Conversation Insights Permissions and select Add Permissions.

Configure Keywords and Call Insights
Einstein Conversation Insights uses keywords that it finds in voice and video calls to generate insights. Einstein Conversation Insights groups insights into high-level types.
-
Configurable Insights. These are insights that you define that are related to competitor, product and feature mentions, and other topics of interest that are important to your business. You have the flexibility to specify the language, which party in the conversation said the keyword, and to group your keywords into categories.
-
Automatic Insights. These insights are built for you and are grouped around common themes in conversations. For example, identifying patterns in words or phrases that come up frequently, next steps, and pricing. No additional configuration is required.
Set Up Configurable Insights
Define call insights related to mentions of competitors and products that are important to your company. You can create custom insights for when words or phrases relevant to your team or other areas that are important to your business are mentioned.
- Navigate to Setup.
- Enter
Einstein Conversation Insights
in the Quick Find box.
- Select General Settings.
- On the Settings page, navigate to Set Up Call Insights in the Get the most out of Conversation Insight section and click Set Up.
- On the Call Insights page, select the Configurable tab, and click New Insight.
- Select the insight type you want to create, and the specific language it applies to, and click Next.

- On the Update Insight page for the type you selected, use the fields provided to define the keywords for the insight type, keeping the following in mind.
- Avoid using keywords that could flag sensitive information to ensure the trust, safety, and privacy of your employees and customers. For example, you should limit words that could inadvertently impact people based on gender, religion, race, sexual orientation, income level, or any other sensitive category. We also recommend limiting keywords that could be construed as surveillance or monitoring your employees.
- Avoid common words or phrases. For example, don’t include “and,” “please,” or “the.”
- Use exact words and phrases, remembering to keep them short. For example, “I’d like a discount on your product please” is too specific, and would likely result in only a handful of mentions. Use “discount” and “percent off” instead to provide insights about customers seeking a lower cost.
