Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring LiveChat, Kintone, and any additional nodes, donโt forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking โRun onceโ and triggering an event to check if the LiveChat and Kintone integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between LiveChat and Kintone (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect LiveChat and Kintone
LiveChat + Kintone + Slack: When a new chat is started in LiveChat, particularly a high-priority one identified perhaps by a tag, create a new record in Kintone to track the issue. Simultaneously, send a notification to a dedicated Slack channel to alert the relevant team.
LiveChat + Kintone + Gmail: When a chat is deactivated in LiveChat, trigger an email to be sent via Gmail, summarizing recent updates to the associated Kintone case. This keeps the customer informed of the progress made on their issue after the LiveChat conversation has ended.
