  1. I am using snap-in chat feature released couple of releases ago.
  2. Unlike the old Live Agent, Snap-in lets admin customize what information to be collected from the pre-chat form and what records to be created as shown in the below screenshot: enter image description here

  3. For the customer, who wants to chat with agent, shows the below pre-chat form as expected: enter image description here

so far, so good but the contact and case records created using the information collected from pre-chat form are not attached to the live chat transcript record and agent has to do manually.

There is a similar question asked about Adding chat transcript to case in Live Agent but how do I use the solution suggested in that answer. Snap-in does not give any option to write any custom code.

I feel lost with this and any help is really appreciated.

  • Is your Snap-In implementation for a community, public or otherwise? Or an external website?

  • This was for a public community.

  • I am currently looking through documentation to find an answer to this as well (for a public community). We are running into an issue where we are not even seeing a Case getting created. Did you have to do anything additional to have the Case created?

    To follow up here, we had a trigger blocking the Case being created. That is now resolved and the Case is connecting to the Live Agent Transcript automatically. Are you using an out of the box pre-chat form or a custom Lightning Component?

  • Out of box pre-chat form. I implemented this in my last projet and moved on to another project now :)

Just to round this out for others searching for a solution, in the Winter '19 release there is a feature to add a code snippet to the pre-chat in your community. Here's a link to the feature in the release notes

https://releasenotes.docs.salesforce.com/en-us/winter19/release-notes/rn_snapins_snippet_settings.htm

Here are some examples of code you can add to the snippet to carry out various tasks such as attaching to the chat transcript.
