Connect Support chat without login

Bradley Ross
Tera Guru

We recently implemented the support chat function in Fuji. It is working well for us and I wish we'd done it years ago! We're looking towards implementing the newer version of Connect Chat in Geneva.

Now that we're in production, we're getting asked if we can use the same tool to field support chats for our campus operators. With this audience, the large percentage of people they talk to won't have accounts on our system. Can I configure chat so that "callers" can be anonymous?

Hi Bradley - this is a very valid use case (particular in the educational sector) and I am excited to let you know this feature is going to be available in Istanbul. An anonymous user will be able to enter any service desk queue without having to have an authenticated SNOW account. They will be required though to enter their name, email, issue type (those fileds are configurable and your admin will be able to change them) before a user enters a queue. I hope that helps!

Hi Prashant,



Can you elaborate on your question, please? What URL are you looking for?


Once you enable com.glide.connect.anonymous_support the plugin you should be able to grab URL for any queue and append it to your site (entry point for end users).
