Why do I keep receiving chats with no customer email or phone number?

Any news? We don't have any triggers, and in events, it's shown that the end-user started a conversation.

But still, there are cases when the end-user shows as a visitor, despite that name and e-mail are required to enter, before chatting starts.

Hi Gatis,

Thank you for reaching out to Zendesk Support.

In regards to your concern, I was able to check your Help Center and I tried to start a chat without inputting any name and email, information but it didn't let me start a live chat session.

I would advise double-checking your Chat triggers if you have a chat pro-active trigger enabled, if so that would bypass your pre-chat form rules.

Thank you and have a wonderful day ahead!

Kind regards,

I have embedded the code on my website and it worked as expected. But I am wondering pre-fill the pre-chat form if the user logged in. What should I do? The below code is not working in react js. 

<script type="text/javascript">
zESettings = {
  webWidget: {
    contactForm: {
      fields: [
        { id: 'description', prefill: { '*': 'This is prefilled description text' } }
      ]
    }
  }
};
</script>

Hello,

Please note that you would have to check if actually the contact form in the Web Widget Form was turned on and you are using that one in your widget.

For example:

For more info:

Using Web Widget to embed customer service in your website

Only then it will work correctly, as in the example below:

Most of the time the issue is that clients are not using the correct widget contact form.

You can also test it out in Codepen.io first to see if your widget script and zeSettings script is correctly rendering in the test window as I did above.

Regarding React.js itself, Zendesk cannot troubleshoot the framework itself, but in your place, I would check how React is rendering the JSX into vanilla HTML/JS when it is compiled.

Check in the inspect window if you are seeing what you would see if you would use vanilla HTML/JS.

Hope that helps!

Is there a way to enforce the customer details gathering form even if the chat window is auto triggered?
