Frequently asked questions
What is required for Business Application Integration?
A supported API or webhook, scoped credentials, agreed fields and a clear owner for exceptions. These are confirmed during discovery.
Will the chatbot be allowed to change records?
Only actions explicitly approved in scope. Read-only access is the default, and consequential changes can require confirmation or human approval.
What happens when the connected system is unavailable?
The visitor receives a clear fallback, the request is retained where permitted, and the failure is logged for an operator rather than silently lost.
Is conversation data copied everywhere?
No. Field allowlists and retention rules limit what is transferred and how long it remains in each system.
