How to integrate LiveChat in automation workflow?

3 simple steps to make your LiveChat connected with other apps in automation workflows on WEXTL. Up to 10 minutes integration set up.

How LiveChat connects and integrates with WEXTL

Save and approve your credentials once — WEXTL® stores authorization information encrypted and reuses the authentication whenever LiveChat app is called in workflows. That allows your support automations to run without your attention, per defined schedule [7]. Explore documentation [6] for a detailed list of fields that LiveChat supports.

The following table illustrates what fields LiveChat integration require during authorization flow inside our workflow builder [4].

Demonstration of LiveChat connection step inside WEXTL Workflow Builder [4].

FieldTypeHelp
Client IDRequired
text

Client Id of a server-side app in the Developer Console. The app's Access scopes must include chats--all:ro, chats--all:rw, customers:ro, customers:rw, customers.ban:rw, agents--all:ro, agents--all:rw, agents-bot--all:ro, multicast:rw, and webhooks.configuration:rw. Authorize does not send a scope parameter. There is a limit of 25 access tokens and 25 refresh tokens per client per user. The oldest is revoked.

Client SecretRequired
password

Client Secret of that app. It is shown once. Send it only from this connection.

Connect LiveChat to popular apps on WEXTL

Enter a name of the other app you want to sync with LiveChat below. Click on selected app to explore integration options with LiveChat. If the app you search for is not available in WEXTL yet, you can use HTTP node [10] instead to integrate it directly.

Example automation with LiveChat integration

Select Watch Deactivated Chats trigger from LiveChat - this will be a starting point in your automation. Whenever event happens in LiveChat, workflow will start [7] from Watch Deactivated Chats node.

Search for Add User To Chat, connect it as the next step of integration sequence. You can use filters between Watch Deactivated Chats and Add User To Chat, so only important data pass from Watch Deactivated Chats to the next step. WEXTL gives you full control over the process of LiveChat automation. All parts of workflow are visible on the canvas [4].

LiveChat on WEXTL has 40 modules for crafting support automations. Explore LiveChat documentation for more.
