Testing Your Integration

After setup, test the integration:

  1. Open your chatbot widget

  3. Check Follow Up Boss for the new lead

You can also test the lookup by asking about an existing contact:

  • “Look up the contact for john@example.com”

Troubleshooting

Leads not appearing

Check that:

  • Your API key is correct and has write permissions
  • The subdomain matches your Follow Up Boss account
  • The lead email isn't already in Follow Up Boss (may update existing)

Invalid API key

Generate a new API key in Follow Up Boss if your current one isn't working. Ensure you're copying the full key.

Subdomain not found

Double-check your subdomain. It should be just the subdomain portion, not the full URL.
