How to integrate Shift4Shop with LiveAgent via Zapier
Shift4Shop can also be integrated with LiveAgent via Zapier. Follow this guide to learn how to make a custom integration.
This guide may show different options in some parts of the integration setup due to the vast number of integration options. However, it generally stays the same and it’s easy to go through no matter what kind of integration you pick.
Create a Zapier account or log in to your existing account and go to the LiveAgent + Shift4Shop integrations page. Scroll down until you see the Connect LiveAgent and Shift4Shop in the Minutes section. Pick a trigger and an action that will connect the two apps.
The first step in our integration is to connect to a Shift4Shop account and allow Zapier to manage our data. Next, there’s a trigger test. After that, you need to set up a LiveAgent action. In this example, it’s creating an email. Fill out the required fields such as the sender and recipient email adresses, message subject, and email body. Continue with the test and turn on the Zap.
