How to Use Extensions with SDK

1

Enable in Dashboard

Login to CometChat Dashboard, select your app, then go to Chat & Messaging → Features and enable the extension.
2

Configure integration

Add your Chatwoot or Intercom credentials and configure the Customer Support user UID in the extension settings.
3

Send messages

Messages sent to the configured Customer Support user are automatically forwarded to your support platform.

​
Chatwoot

The Chatwoot extension makes customer support seamless for your users. Messages sent to the configured Customer Support user are automatically forwarded to your Chatwoot inbox.
The Chatwoot integration is configured through the CometChat Dashboard and works automatically once set up. No additional SDK code is required beyond standard messaging.

​
Sending a Support Message

Simply send a message to the Customer Support user configured in your extension settings: 
TextMessage textMessage = TextMessage(
  text: 'I need help with my order',
  receiverUid: 'customer-support-uid', // The UID configured in extension settings
  receiverType: CometChatReceiverType.user,
);

CometChat.sendMessage(textMessage,
  onSuccess: (BaseMessage message) {
    debugPrint('Support message sent successfully');
    // Message will be forwarded to Chatwoot automatically
  },
  onError: (CometChatException e) {
    debugPrint('Error: ${e.message}');
  }
);

​
Intercom

The Intercom extension makes customer support seamless for your users. Messages sent to the configured Customer Support user are automatically forwarded to your Intercom dashboard.
The Intercom integration is configured through the CometChat Dashboard and works automatically once set up. No additional SDK code is required beyond standard messaging.

​
Sending a Support Message

Simply send a message to the Customer Support user configured in your extension settings: 
TextMessage textMessage = TextMessage(
  text: 'I have a question about billing',
  receiverUid: 'customer-support-uid', // The UID configured in extension settings
  receiverType: CometChatReceiverType.user,
);

CometChat.sendMessage(textMessage,
  onSuccess: (BaseMessage message) {
    debugPrint('Support message sent successfully');
    // Message will be forwarded to Intercom automatically
