Save time when searching for important calls, and get notified when new calls happen, with streams. Streams automatically collect calls according to criteria that you set using words, trackers, call titles, and more. Find out when new calls are collected in a stream via automatic notifications by email or Slack. For more about streams, see this.
Create a stream
Go to Conversations > Your Library or Conversations > Company Library.
Click +NEW at the top of the panel and choose Stream, or click + beside a folder name and choose Stream.
The ability to create streams is set in the permissions profile. If you don't see it and think you should, contact your Gong admin.
Give the stream a name.
Add filters to set which calls will automatically populate this stream. For more info about call filters, see this.
Select the type of stream:
Standard All calls are shown to everyone viewing the stream. This is preferred when building a stream in the company library, so that everyone visiting the library can see all of the calls. This is also required if you want to enable Slack notifications for the stream.
Personalized Each person who is subscribed to the stream only sees the calls owned by them or their team.
Share the stream with others and subscribe them to stream notifications.
You are automatically subscribed to the streams you create. To enable other people to access the stream and get notified when new calls are collected in it, share the stream with them and then set the notification cadence.
Add email subscribers: Click +Share and select the team or team member you want to receive notifications.
Once they’ve been added, toggle on Subscribe and set the notification cadence: immediately, daily, or weekly. Weekly notifications are sent on Fridays.
Enable Slack notifications. Some streams allow for Slack notifications too. These notifications come with spotlight's call brief, giving recipients a quick view into what went on in the call. To add Slack notifications, select a Slack channel. If it is a private Slack channel, make sure Gong is invited to the channel.
In order for Slack notifications to be possible:
- Your org must be connected to Slack
- The stream must be in the company library (not your library)
- The stream must be standard (not personalized)Rolling out in September 2024, you’ll be able to customize Slack notifications and choose which AI summaries you want to include:
Call brief: 1-paragraph summary of the call
Key points: 10-bullet list of main points
Next steps: Action items from both sides
Smart trackers: If the stream has smart tracker filters, choose whether you want to see a summary of the smart tracker mentions, or a transcript of the relevant snippets.
Save the stream.
Note:
Just because someone sees a call in a stream doesn’t mean they have access to it. Calls that are marked private remain private, even if they are collected in a stream. They will be visible to people who have access to the stream, but they won't be accessible.
