Introducing Product Cards and Dashboard for BigCommerce
We just shipped two new features for our BigCommerce integration, that make using LiveChat easier both for Agents and Admins.
Product Cards
Now, all agents can send product cards right from the LiveChat app. It’s very easy; you search for a product, select it and hit send. Each card contains an image, a description, and a link to the product page.
Have more than one store? Not a problem. You can easily switch between products from each one of your connected stores.
All that without leaving the LiveChat app. No more jumping between chats and product pages in your store.
LiveChat Dashboard
You are an admin and take care of how LiveChat performs on your website?
With Dashboard, you have access to data on greetings conversion, customers browsing your site, the number of unassigned tickets and many more. Right in the BigCommerce app.

Our Zendesk integration supports custom fields!
I want to let you know that our Zendesk integration has been updated! From now on, when you’re creating a ticket in Zendesk, LiveChat will load custom fields from your Zendesk account. You can populate them with additional information about your customers, gathered straight from the chat!
But that’s not all! You can also choose a field to which LiveChat will automatically attach ID of the chat, from which the ticket was created. Just in case that you’d like to keep record of which chats resulted in creating tickets.
