Conversations and Data Sources
In MiaRec, a conversation is a single customer interaction that can be analyzed to produce insights.
Depending on your deployment, a conversation may be:
- a voice call
- a chat conversation
- an email thread
- a ticket with message history
In some parts of the product UI, you may still see “call” used for voice-specific views. The broader term “conversation” is used here to support omni‑channel analytics.
What makes a conversation analyzable
To analyze a conversation, MiaRec needs:
- Content
- voice calls: a recording that can be transcribed
- text channels: message/thread text
- Metadata (recommended)
- time and duration
- direction (inbound/outbound), where applicable
- agent/team/queue identifiers
- tags and other business context
Metadata enables segmentation and filtering in dashboards and search.
Common data sources (examples)
MiaRec deployments often integrate with:
- contact center platforms (voice recordings and call metadata)
- chat platforms (messages, timestamps, participants)
- ticketing systems (ticket threads, status changes)
- email systems (thread text and headers)
The exact connectors and ingestion methods depend on your environment and are described in the Platform Setup & Operations Guide (for operators) and the Administration Guide (for tenant admins).
Why “conversation” is the right unit
Using a common unit across channels provides consistency:
- the same insight (e.g., topic, sentiment) can apply to calls, chats, and tickets
- dashboards can show trends across channels
- search filters work the same way (e.g., “High churn risk”)
