  • Once the system fetches the test sample, you will see "Test Successful!" message as shown below. Click Continue.

Step 4: To setup the action to be taken for the trigger. (Sending email for a new missed chat on HappyFox Chat)

  • Choose action app  → Type "Gmail" and select it.
  • Under Select Gmail account → click Connect to new account button.

  • You can send a sample message to preview the email for missed chat. On testing successfully testing the sample message, you can see the below screen. Click "Finish" button.

Step 6: After testing and naming the Zap, turn ON the Zap. Your Zap will be created successfully!

To add a keyword filter, click ‘+’ option:

You can set “custom filter” so that you can set the action only when there is a keyword mentioned in the chat. Example: upgrade plan / pricing / something relevant to your domain.
