Macro variables

Below is a list of variables that can be inserted into macros to populate them with customer data from third-party apps.

To use variables from another app, ensure that you’ve added it in Integration first.

• Refund date formatted like "03/22/2018": {{ticket.customer.integrations.shopify.orders[0].refunds[0].processed_at|datetime_format("L")}}

Shopify variables

• Customer id:
  {{ticket.customer.integrations.shopify.customer.email}}
• Customer's address: 
  {{ticket.customer.integrations.shopify.customer.default_address.address1}},
  {{ticket.customer.integrations.shopify.customer.default_address.address2}}, 
  {{ticket.customer.integrations.shopify.customer.default_address.zip}},
  {{ticket.customer.integrations.shopify.customer.default_address.city}},
  {{ticket.customer.integrations.shopify.customer.default_address.province}}
• Last order id:
  {{ticket.customer.integrations.shopify.orders[0].id}}
• Tracking url of the last order:
  {{ticket.customer.integrations.shopify.orders[0].fulfillments[0].tracking_url}}
• Product name: 
  {{ticket.customer.integrations.shopify.orders[0].line_items[0].name}}
• Variant name:  
  {{ticket.customer.integrations.shopify.orders[0].line_items[0].variant_title}}
• Credit card number: 
  {{ticket.customer.integrations.shopify.orders[0].payment_details.credit_card_number}}
• Refund process date: 
  {{ticket.customer.integrations.shopify.orders[0].refunds[0].processed_at|datetime_format("L")}}

Back-office variables

Back-office variables a bit more harder to use, since each back-office unique. For instance, you can display the ETA of an order, or the order_count of a customer. 

To use a variable from your back-office in a macro, follow the steps below: 

1. Go to the HTTP integration's page that you use to fetch back-office data
2. On this page, copy the integration_id at the end of the url. For instance, if the url is https://sfbicycles.gorgias.io/app/integrations/http/9141, the integration_idis 9141
3. Now, the path to your integration is ticket.customer.integrations[9141]
4. Head over to a ticket that contains back-office data, and click on the Gear icon
5. Now, follow the data structure to find the name of the variables. All variables have this form: {{ticket.customer.integrations[9141].data[0].delivery_cost}

That's it. This is probably one of the most complex parts of Gorgias. If you need help, ping us on the Slack community!

Klaviyo actions

If you want to add a customer to a specific Klaviyo list, you can add an HTTP action that will do it for you. 

1. Go to the Klaviyo you want to subscribe customers to.
2. Copy the Subscribe URL. Here is an example: https://manage.kmail-lists.com/subscriptions/subscribe?a=123456789
3. In Gorgias, open a ticket, click on Manage Macros, create a macro, click Add action and click HTTP hook
4. Fill the hook with the info below:

Title: Add customer to Klaviyo list

Done!

Now, to add a customer to a Klaviyo list, just use the macro.
