This will allow direct links back to Kustomer conversation threads, from within your Customer Thermometer reporting screens.
Generate your embed code
Click the Generate embed code button. You will see a window popup.
To capture identifiable data about the recipient and sender etc we use Kustomer’s variables within the survey code. Enter your Kustomer variables as shown below - you'll see we pre-populate some of these for you. These variables will provide identifiable feedback and dictate which data is captured alongside Customer Thermometer rating. You can add more variables if you wish, click ‘Add more fields’.
You can find the Kustomer Merge fields by creating a shortcut within Kustomer, and using the ‘insert dynamic text‘ option to drop the relevant merge field into the shortcut. You can then copy that merge field for use in Customer Thermometer.
Click the pink ‘Generate HTML’ button.
Copy the HTML code generated in the box on the right hand side.
Embed feedback icons in Kustomer conversations

You’ll then see an edit template box. Delete the default HTML code and paste the Customer Thermometer embed code, created in Step 1 above.
You can amend the layout and styling as you see fit.
Ensure you do not alter the URL hyperlinks attached to each image, or your Thermometer will not work.
