How it runs

The example flow

Each step is a ReplyCX action block. Change the questions, add blocks or remove them in the Bot Builder.

  1. 01
    Buttons

    Shopper picks a request

    The bot greets the shopper and offers buttons for a return, a replacement or another order question.

  2. 02
    Collect input

    Ask for the order number

    The bot asks for the order number and saves it in a variable for the rest of the chat.

  3. 03
    Collect file

    Add a photo or invoice

    For a damaged or wrong item, the shopper uploads a photo or invoice as PDF, JPG or PNG.

  4. 04
    Condition

    Route by request type

    A condition block sends returns and replacements down separate paths based on the saved answers.

  5. 05
    Send an email

    Tell your team

    Your team gets an email with the order number, the reason and the uploaded file.

  6. 06
    Human handover

    Live chat with an agent

    When the shopper asks for a person, the chat moves to your support team in live chat.

Data

Where the answers go

Each answer is saved in a variable, so you can reuse it later in the chat or send it to the tools your team already uses.
