How We Help

Connecting Help Scout (customer support) with Typeform (forms & surveys) is one of the most requested integrations among Australian Professional Services and Retail & E-commerce businesses. This integration eliminates the manual transfer of conversations and customers data, reducing errors and freeing up your team to focus on growth. On the technical side, Help Scout uses a REST + Webhook API with OAuth authentication, which our team handles as part of the build.
