The following filters are available:

• By conversation type
• By assignee
• By last message channel: Filter the conversations whose last message was from the selected channel.
• By last message type: Filter the conversations whose last message (outbound) was from the selected type.
• By last message direction: Filter the conversations whose last message direction was from the selected type.

Sort conversations

You can sort your Conversations on the basis of time. It helps in going through your conversations more easily.

You can sort it as follows:
- Latest to oldest

- Oldest to latest

Please Note

This will also work in combination with the Quick filters mentioned above to make Conversations more structured. 

So, in essence if you have filters applied and sort based on oldest or latest the system will also account the filters you have selected
