Evernote integration

Using LiveChat and Evernote on daily basis? Good, if you find those two useful you can marry them up. If your chat visitors give you inspirational ideas about your webpage, have queries about their purchases (on which you need to check later) or report errors via LiveChat then you can create a tag for such chats and save them as notes in Evernote.

Here’s a tutorial with instructions on how to create a Zap that will create a note in your Evernote after a ’note’ tag is added to a chat.

Creating the Evernote – LiveChat Zap

Creating a Zap consists of four main parts:

1. Setting up the trigger
2. Adding a filter
3. Configuring the action
4. Launching the Zap

Setting up LiveChat trigger

The first step to set up this integration is to determine a condition that will trigger an action in your Evernote account.

In this integration Chat changed trigger will be used.

1. Log in to Zapier and click on Make a Zap in the upper menu.

2. Choose LiveChat as the Trigger App.
3. Select Chat changed as the Trigger.

4. Click on Save + Continue to proceed.

Adding a filter

The second step is adding a filter that will only pass the chats with a ’note’ tag further.
