Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring LiveChat, Shopify, 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 Shopify integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between LiveChat and Shopify (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 Shopify
LiveChat + Shopify + Slack: When a new chat is started in LiveChat, the automation finds the customer in Shopify based on their email. Relevant order details are then sent to a designated Slack channel to provide agents with quick access to customer information for improved support.
Shopify + LiveChat + Klaviyo: Upon a new order in Shopify, a LiveChat conversation is initiated, and the customer's profile is created or updated in Klaviyo. The customer is then added to a specific Klaviyo list for targeted email marketing campaigns.
