Inbox

Keyboard Shortcuts

Send messages, add new lines, choose canned responses, and leave message editing from the keyboard.

These keys work in the Inbox composer. Check Reply or Personal Note before sending: the send key works in both modes.

Write and send

KeyAction
EnterSend a message or save a note when sending is allowed and the content is ready
Shift + EnterAdd a new line
Esc while editing a messageCancel editing and leave that mode

When editing a sent message, Enter saves the changed text. Use Esc to leave without saving.

Choose a canned response

Type / in the composer. While the canned response list is open:

KeyAction
↑ and ↓Move between options
EnterInsert the selected option into the composer
EscClose the list
Choose a response, add a new line, and send from the keyboard

While the response list is open, Enter inserts the response without sending the message. Review the text, then press Enter again or select Send.

Dashboard shortcuts

The keys above belong to the Inbox editor. The current Inbox does not define single-letter shortcuts for moving to the next conversation, changing priority, or assigning a chat. Use list and details-panel controls for those actions.
