This article applies to Zendesk Chat (formerly known as Zopim). You will also need Zendesk Chat account on the Enterprise or Premium (Legacy) package.
To setup a handover to Zendesk Chat we will make use of the Zendesk Chat Handover module in our agent_handover conversation flow.
How to find your Zendesk Chat account key?
- Sign in to your Chat dashboard.
- In the top right-hand corner, click your profile icon and, in the menu that appears select the Check Connection option.
- In the window that opens, your Chat account key will be a long string of numbers and letters on the second line, as shown in the example below.

Using Zendesk Chat Handover Module
Drag a module into the flow at a point where you would like to handover the conversation to Zendesk Chat. You will need to provide the following information in the module settings:
| Account Key | Account Key can be found by following the above mentioned steps. |
| Name Field | Context field in which name has been captured |
| Email Field | Context field in which email has been captured |
| Department / Group Id | Department / Group Id (if using Agent Workspace) to transfer the chat. Leave blank for first online department |
The conversation will continue post agent handover after the agent ends the chat. This is useful to ask for survey or any follow up questions you might have.
