## Google Chat

Bring customer conversations in Google Chat spaces into Pylon. Google Chat is available on the Enterprise plan.

Connect it from **Settings > Integrations > Google Chat**. Pylon reads and sends messages in your spaces as a Google Workspace admin you choose, called the integration user. Pylon adds that user to each space you link. Link each space to an account from the Accounts page. You can then create [proactive issues](/pylon-docs/support-workflows/issues/proactive-issues.md) in the linked space. For setup steps, see [How do I connect the Google Chat integration?](https://support.usepylon.com/articles/3458673215-how-do-i-connect-the-google-chat-integration)

## Ongoing chats

Microsoft Teams chats, WhatsApp, Telegram, and SMS conversations don't have separate threads for each request. With issue conversation view on (the default), Pylon uses AI to add each new message to the right open issue, or creates a new issue when the message is about something else. See [Issue conversation view](/pylon-docs/support-workflows/issues/statuses.md#issue-conversation-view).

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.usepylon.com/pylon-docs/support-workflows/omnichannel-support.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
