ProProfs Live Chat allows you to gather customer information from your web pages and pass it to ProProfs Chat using Advanced and Invisible tracking methods. This information can include custom IDs, customer-related order information, or any other relevant data stored in your database.
Here's a brief overview of tracking methods used in ProProfs Chat:
- Advanced Tracking: Use this option for passing custom information variables from your web pages to ProProfs Live Chat. You can pass custom identification information, order information related to the customer, or any other information you want to pass from your web page to ProProfs.
