Easybot integration
Google Business Messages (GBM) will be discontinued by Google on July 31, 2024. After this date, customers can't use GBM to let users engage with brands through any of the Google entry points or third-party channels.
EasyBot Introduction
EasyBot is a perfect tool for businesses that don’t necessarily need complicated, hard-to-configure bots. With its help, you can handle the most frequent cases, such as welcome or out-of-office messages, or create your own scenario of the talk.
Set a greeting that your customers will see the moment they send you a message while waiting on the agent, inform your customers about your GDPR, or collect contacts from the customers who contacted you outside of working hours. With EasyBot, you can easily design almost any conversation scenario.
LiveChat Marketplace
EasyBot is available in LiveChat Market place under this link

EasyBot block building
