Error: "View only. You need to have Chat enabled to reply to this conversation."

Issue symptoms

When I attempt to comment on a ticket I receive this error: View only. You need to have Chat enabled to reply to this conversation. 

Resolution steps

This error occurs when the user attempting to comment on the ticket doesn't have a Chat license. If you're an admin, you can fix this issue yourself. If you are not an admin, contact your team so that you can be given the correct access.
