Insert message

As the customers send messages within your chat window, you can use our insert message API endpoint to send them to your live agents.

Typing Status

You can inform your live agents with a visual dialog that the customers are typing with our set typing status endpoint.

Chat Message History

If you allow your visitors to navigate or reopen an existing chat, you may need to use our chat history endpoint to fetch previous message from the LiveHelpNow system.

Chat Termination

If for any reason you need to terminate the chat after a handoff, you can use our chat terminate endpoint to properly close the chat within LiveHelpNow.


Webhooks

Our chat message webhook will allow you to receive all operator messages and message details to display to your chatting customers. This webhook is restricted to our enterprise clients.
