# Conversations

> Managing your chat conversations in Experio

## Viewing Conversations

### From the Sidebar

Your most recent conversations appear in the **Recent Chats** section of the sidebar. Click any conversation to resume it.

### From the Chats Page

Navigate to **Chats** from the sidebar to see all your conversations in a paginated list. Each entry shows:

* Conversation title
* Last message preview
* Last updated time

### Filtering and Search

On the Chats page, you can:

* **Filter by assistant** — Use the assistant selector dropdown to show conversations for a specific assistant only.
* **Search by title** — Type in the search box to find conversations by name.
* **Sort** — Choose between **Recent** (newest first) or **Oldest** (oldest first).

The page uses **infinite scroll** — more conversations load automatically as you scroll down.

## Creating Conversations

New conversations are created automatically when you:

* Send a message from the **Home Page**
* Click an assistant on the **Agents** page
* Use the **New Chat** button in the sidebar

Each conversation is assigned to the assistant you were interacting with when it was created.

## Renaming Conversations

There are two ways to rename a conversation:

1. **In the header** — Click the conversation title at the top of the chat to edit it inline.
2. **From the menu** — Click the three-dot menu on a conversation in the sidebar or chats list, then select **Rename**.

## Sharing Conversations

Share a conversation with colleagues to collaborate or provide visibility:

1. Open the conversation you want to share
2. Click the **Share** button in the header
3. Search for users by name or email
4. Select a role for each user:
   * **Viewer** — Can read the conversation but not add messages
   * **Editor** — Can read and contribute messages
5. Click **Share** to confirm

To manage existing shares, open the share dialog to see current recipients. You can change roles or remove access.

## Forking Conversations

Fork a conversation to explore a different direction from a specific AI response without changing the original thread.

### How to fork

1. Open the conversation you want to branch from
2. Hover over the **AI response** where you want to branch
3. Click **More** (⋯), then **Fork from here**

You must have **Editor** access to the conversation (or be the owner). Viewers cannot fork shared conversations.

### What happens when you fork

* A **new conversation** is created with the same assistant and folder as the original
* The new conversation includes all messages **through** the selected AI response (including earlier user messages)
* The **original conversation** is unchanged — you can keep chatting in both threads independently
* You are taken to the new conversation automatically
* A **Forked from** banner at the top links back to the parent conversation

The fork title is prefixed with `Fork:` followed by the original conversation name.

<Note>
  Fork is only available on **AI responses**, not on user messages. Forking is disabled while the assistant is still generating a response.
</Note>

## Deleting Conversations

1. Click the three-dot menu on any conversation (in the sidebar or chats list)
2. Select **Delete**
3. Confirm the deletion in the dialog

<Warning>
  Deleting a conversation permanently removes it and all its messages. This action cannot be undone.
</Warning>

## Adding Conversations to Folders

Organize conversations by assigning them to folders:

1. Click the three-dot menu on a conversation
2. Select **Add to Folder**
3. Check one or more folders to assign the conversation to
4. Optionally create a new folder inline by clicking **Create New Folder**

A conversation can belong to **multiple folders** simultaneously. See [Folders](/user-guide/folders) for more on organizing with folders.
