Livedesk Configuration Guide
Log in to the EngageLab platform and select the target project in Livedesk
Log in to the Livedesk Developer Console with the Livedesk Agent account that will be taken over by the AI Agent, then follow the steps below:
Enter the Livedesk product and go to “Project Settings → API Management → API Key”. Copy the API key.

Switch to GPTBots, open “Agent → Integrations → Livedesk”, paste the key into Access Token, and click Integrate.
Remember to enable the Livedesk channel toggle so the agent can receive and reply to messages.
The agent is now linked. You can view or manage it under “Livedesk → AI Agents”.

In “Livedesk → Channels”, pick the target channel, open its settings, choose AI Agent, select the agent you just added, and save.

That’s it—your AI Agent is live on Livedesk.
To let the agent take over user chats, set the human-service mode to Livedesk to Livedesk in the agent’s configuration.
Managing the AI Agent
- Delete: Go to “Livedesk → AI Agents”, choose the agent, and click Delete.
GPTBots will automatically remove the auth record and disable the channel. - Sync info: Whenever you update the agent’s name, description, or avatar in GPTBots, the changes are pushed to Livedesk instantly.
Advanced Livedesk Features
Auto-Tagging
Enabling this makes the system listen for all selected events in the project and may consume extra credits.
After the initial auth is complete, you can turn on Auto-Tagging:
- Trigger events
– Close conversation: fired when the visitor actively closes the chat.
– Transfer chat: fired when the chat is handed off to another agent. - Tags
The system pulls the existing tag list from your Livedesk project.
When a chosen event occurs, the AI Agent reads the transcript, picks the most relevant tag, and calls the Livedesk tagging API automatically—helping human agents spot customer needs faster.
Source Filtering
Once authenticated, you can enable Source Filtering:
- The system loads all tags defined in the Livedesk project.
- Select one or more tags as filter criteria.
- When a visitor starts a chat, GPTBots checks the chat’s tags.
– If they match, the message is sent to the AI Agent.
– Otherwise, the message is ignored.
