What can you do with LiveChat on Tray.ai?
LiveChat is customer service software for chatting with website visitors, letting agents answer, transfer and close chats and keep customer records. Tray.ai connects to LiveChat through the HTTP Connector, so your workflows can call the LiveChat API alongside the rest of your stack.
- When LiveChat sends “Incoming chat”, look up the visitor in your CRM so the agent sees their account.
- When LiveChat sends “Chat deactivated”, save the transcript to the customer's record in your help desk.
- Update a customer in LiveChat with their plan and account owner from your CRM.
