With X (previously Twitter) fast becoming the de-facto channel for customer service online, HappyFox lets you integrate your organization's X handles with your help-desk account.

Using X Integration, you can do the following, within HappyFox:

• Convert X mentions into tickets, send replies.
• Convert X Direct Messages into tickets, send response message.

 

Available on all pricing plans.

Note:

The process of converting direct messages (DMs) into tickets is undergoing a transition due to updates in the X API. It will return to functionality very soon.

Plan based limit on the number of linkable handles: Mighty - 2, Fantastic - 5, Enterprise - 7 and Enterprise Plus - 10.

 

How to Integrate your X account to HappyFox

• Log in to HappyFox.
• Go to Apps >> Social Media >> X (Twitter) Integration.
• Click Install. In the subsequent screen, click "Link X".
• You will be asked to Authorize HappyFox.
• You will then be redirected to HappyFox and you can see the list of all the handle you've just linked to HappyFox.
