The problem

WhatsApp conversations live outside your helpdesk

Your customers message you on WhatsApp, but your support team works in Gorgias. Messages get lost, response times suffer, and agents waste time switching between platforms.

With Kanal

Bring WhatsApp into your Gorgias workspace

Kanal sends the WhatsApp conversations that need a human to Gorgias, as a ticket tagged Kanal. Messages handled by an automation or the AI Agent stay in Kanal unless the AI Agent hands over to a human. Your agents answer from the helpdesk they already use, and the conversation stays in the Kanal inbox too.

Gorgias FAQ

How does the Gorgias WhatsApp integration work?

Kanal sends Gorgias the WhatsApp conversations that need a human: messages handled by an automation or the AI Agent are not sent, unless the AI Agent hands over to a human. On the first transfer, an internal note gives the recent history. Replies written in Gorgias are sent to the customer on WhatsApp through Kanal, and the conversation stays visible in the Kanal inbox.

How do I connect Gorgias to Kanal?

In Kanal, go to Settings, then Integrations, select Gorgias and enter your Gorgias domain name (the one you use to log into Gorgias), then confirm. Gorgias then asks you to authorize Kanal. Once connected, new conversations that need a human appear in Gorgias.

How do I keep WhatsApp tickets separate in Gorgias?

Every ticket that comes from WhatsApp carries the Kanal tag. Create a view in Gorgias with a filter on Tag equal to Kanal, and your team gets a dedicated WhatsApp queue.

Which Kanal plan includes the Gorgias integration?

The Scale plan (149€ per month) and the plans above it. Meta's WhatsApp messaging fees are billed per message on top.
