How to integrate Crisp with Webflow

Crisp offers three straightforward integration options with Webflow. 

You can install the Crisp chat widget or use the Crisp Web SDK using Webflow’s Code Embed element. You can create more advanced functions and set up automations using Webflow’s and Crisp’s APIs.

Use HTML embeds and native features

For greater customization control, embed Crisp directly using Webflow's custom code features. This method supports both site-wide and page-specific implementations.

Here’s how to implement site-wide installation via Site Settings:

1. Navigate to Settings > Custom Code
2. Paste your Crisp installation script in the Footer Code section:

<script type="text/javascript">
  window.$crisp=[];
  window.CRISP_WEBSITE_ID="your-website-id";
  (function(){
    d=document;
    s=d.createElement("script");
    s.src="https://client.crisp.chat/l.js";
    s.async=1;
    d.getElementsByTagName("head")[0].appendChild(s);
  })();
</script>

You can also embed Crisp on specific pages by following the steps below:

• Drag an Embed component from Webflow's Add panel
• Insert the Crisp script for targeted deployment on specific pages
• Position the embed element strategically (typically near footer)

The Crisp SDK enables advanced customizations:

• User identification: $crisp.push(["set", "user:email", ["user@email.com"]])
• Custom data: $crisp.push(["set", "session:data", [[["plan", "premium"]]]])
• Behavioral triggers: $crisp.push(["do", "chat:open"]) on button clicks

Build with Webflow and Crisp APIs

API integration unlocks capabilities beyond the chat widget, enabling automated workflows, data synchronization, and custom interfaces. This approach requires server-side implementation through platforms like AWS Lambda or Netlify Functions since Webflow doesn't execute backend code.

The Crisp REST API and Webflow Data API work together to enable:

• Automated lead routing based on form submissions
• CRM synchronization between platforms
• Custom analytics dashboards combining chat and site metrics

Sync form submissions to Crisp contacts

Create automated workflows that capture Webflow form data and create Crisp profiles:

1. Configure Webflow webhooks: Set up form submission webhooks in Site Settings to trigger on new entries via the Webhooks API
2. Process webhook data: Create a serverless function that receives form data and maps fields to Crisp contact properties
3. Create Crisp profiles: Use the People Profiles endpoint to create contacts with enriched data from forms

This enables automatic lead qualification and segmentation based on form responses.

Build custom support dashboards

Combine Crisp conversation data with Webflow CMS for unified reporting:

1. Fetch conversation metrics: Use Crisp's Analytics endpoints to retrieve support metrics
2. Sync to Webflow CMS: Create collection items via the CMS API to store conversation summaries
3. Display analytics: Build dynamic dashboards in Webflow that visualize support performance

This provides transparency into support operations without leaving your Webflow environment.

Implement intelligent chatbot routing

Create context-aware chat experiences using both platforms' APIs:

1. Track user behavior: Monitor Webflow page visits and interactions
2. Trigger targeted messages: Use Crisp's Message API to send personalized greetings based on browsing patterns
3. Route to specialists: Automatically assign conversations using the Routing API based on page context

What you can build

Integrating Crisp with Webflow enables powerful customer engagement solutions across various use cases.

• E-commerce support systems: Build shopping assistants that answer product questions in real-time, recover abandoned carts through targeted chat prompts, and provide order tracking updates directly in the chat interface
• Multi-language help desks: Create support experiences that automatically detect visitor language, route conversations to native-speaking agents, and maintain conversation context across different languages and channels‍
• Proactive feedback collectors: Deploy timed or scroll-based prompts via Crisp chat to gather mid-journey feedback.
  Auto-create Webflow CMS items for each response and review them centrally.‍
• Guided onboarding assistants: Trigger interactive walkthroughs with Crisp SDK messages to collect user preferences. Store preferences in session data and personalize subsequent CMS-driven page content.
