Context variables
Bot context
- The bot context is a variable that can be used to store/save the response from the visitor for a particular card. In the below reference, when the visitors provides the location details, it will be saved in the bot context variable (location.option). And this variable can be used in other card to get respective value.
- To save the visitor's response, click on the Save in bot context check box and provide the variable name.
- Type % in the card's message text box/email content to avail all the bot context available in the bot.
Example
- Let's take an e-commerce service where you need to send an order confirmation email once your visitors place an order via Zobot. Store the values required in a bot context on each block as shown in the below reference and use them on the send email card to send order confirmation emails to the visitors.
- Here, the name from Name card, email from Email card, choice of product by Multiple options card, Date from the Calendar card, and location from the location card is collected and saved in the respective bot context to use in the Send email card.
Output
- This is the output (Order confirmation mail sent to the visitors) of the above configuration.
- <script>
- $zoho.salesiq.ready=function()
- {
- $zoho.salesiq.visitor.info({"Brand" : "Premium", "Branch": "California"});
- }
- </script>
Visitor fields
- If you want to capture additional information of a visitor other than name, email and phone, the visitor fields can be used.
- The visitor fields is also a variable to save the response from the visitor for a particular card in SalesIQ. This information will be displayed in the operator's dashboard.
- This information can also be pushed to Zoho CRM or Desk (both default and custom fields are supported).
- To save and push the visitor's response, click on Save in visitor fields check box and provide the variable name.
Example
- In the e-commerce business, leads will be created along with their interested or prefered choises of products. In the below reference, when the visitors selects the prefered mobile choise, it will be saved in the visitor fields variable (interested_products) and gets pushed to the CRM field.
- The CRM field name and the visitor fields name must be same for this action. Both the default and custom fields for any layouts are applicable for this action.
- The lead will be created in CRM along with the interested products.
Dynamic text
Example
- Initially, the value "visitor.name" is available, but the value will be empty as the bot doesn't know the visitor's name.
- So with the name card, we're getting name from the visitor and then using again to provide enriched response.
