What is Help Scout?

Help Scout is a handy support tool that lets you communicate with your users via emails. This software is useful when you want to collaborate with your team on customer service. It lets you share mailbox with teammates, so you can work on issues together. What’s more, you can use Help Scout to add email widget to your website, so people can use it to send tickets to your mailbox. It could be nice alternative to contact forms.

How does this integration work?

This integration makes solving technical issues easier for you. Why? Because it will send session replay links along with tickets, every time someone will send it to you using Help Scout widget. Then you can easily check what people did before submitting an issue and what exactly was wrong, so you can resolve it faster. The result looks like below:

It could be especially useful if you use user identification feature in LiveSession. You could then check entire history of session replays for specific customer. To make this work check this article.

Do you want to minimize number of follow-ups sent to your customers? We guess you want, so let’s try it and make your job easier!

How can I install this integration?

To connect LiveSession with your Help Scout Beacon, you need to add the code below before your </body> closing tag:

<script> if(__ls && Beacon) { __ls('getSessionURL', function(url, isNew) { if(isNew) { Beacon("identify", { session_replay: url }); } }) } </script>
