Setup Support Portal For A Specific Business Inbox #

To easily manage multiple business inboxes, you can easily set up a Support Portal for your specific Business Inbox using a Shortcode that will direct support tickets from any page to the right inbox and create a personalized support portal for your business needs.

To learn the whole process, follow the steps with the screenshots below β€”

Go to the page where you want to embed a portal and paste the below shortcode.

Shortcode: [ fluent_support _portal show_logout = β€˜yes’ business_box_id=2 ]
Remember, instead of 2 (business box ID), use your own Business Box ID from your chosen business inbox.

To find the Business Box ID, go to Business Inboxes from Fluent Support Dashboard, and click on the View Settings of your desired business inbox.

View the settings of a specific Business Inbox

Now, you will find the business box ID in the URL of that business box as shown below. Copy the Business Box ID (number) from here.

And, use the ID in your Shortcode and place it anywhere on your website as per your requirements as I have used it below β€”

This service is especially helpful for Web-Based Business Inboxes.
