Help Scout + WhatsApp Business

Help Scout + WhatsApp Business integrations

Create Help Scout conversations from WhatsApp Business messages

Centralize WhatsApp Business support in Help Scout. This integration creates a new conversation in Help Scout for each WhatsApp Business message you receive, giving your support team a unified view of customer communications across channels.

When this happens...
New Message ReceivedTriggers when a customer sends a message to your WhatsApp Business phone number. Note: the test step shows a static placeholder record because WhatsApp's API does not expose message history. Real messages will only appear in Zap runs after the Zap is turned on and a customer sends a new message.
