What is Human Agent tag in Instagram/Messenger channel

Last updated on Apr 23, 2025

The Human Agent feature enables businesses to respond to user messages outside the standard 24-hour messaging window. When a human agent applies the human_agent message tag, they can reply to users' messages within 7 days of the last user message.

This feature is particularly useful in scenarios where issues need more time for resolution. Common use cases include:

  • When the business is closed (e.g., weekends or holidays)

  • Complex customer inquiries requiring more than 24 hours to resolve

While HUMAN_AGENT permission is already enabled for our cloud instance, self-hosted installations must undergo and pass the App Review process to access this feature.
