Save and Activate the Scenario

After configuring LiveChat, Twilio, and any additional nodes, don’t 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 “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the LiveChat and Twilio integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between LiveChat and Twilio (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 Twilio

LiveChat + Twilio + Google Sheets: When a chat is deactivated in LiveChat, the transcript and related SMS communications from Twilio are logged into a Google Sheet for analysis of customer service performance and trend identification.

Twilio + LiveChat + Zendesk: When a customer sends a text message to Twilio, a new ticket is created in Zendesk. Simultaneously, a live chat is initiated in LiveChat to provide faster issue resolution.
