## 💬 Restart Conversations in Gorgias
***
If you can no longer reply to a customer via WhatsApp, the reason is that the **24-hour messaging window** has closed. After this period, WhatsApp restricts direct messages.\
To restart the conversation, you need to send a **template message** first. Only after the customer replies can you continue the conversation via regular text messages.
### How to set this up
1. In Chatarmin, create a **template** with the template type set to **Gorgias**.
2. Use this template in Gorgias to send a message like:\
"Hey, is your request still open?"
3. Once the customer responds (e.g., "Yes"), you can reply normally via text.
(Currently, it is not possible to use variables in Gorgias due to technical limitations of Gorgias.)
This process ensures compliance with WhatsApp rules and lets you reopen conversations smoothly.
