Would you like to connect your chat widget or use our programming interface? Then take a look at the support articles >>Support Chat and >>elopage API.
Please note
If you have already set up email automations, the previous standard settings will be adopted (e.g. the transmission of tags with product names or coupon codes) and the usual information will continue to be transmitted. If you now set your own new tags, these will be transmitted in addition to the default tags. If you deactivate the "Previous settings" option, the default tags will no longer be sent in the future. The deactivation may not be reversed.
