As part of our commitment to delivering the best possible chat experience, we will be sunsetting WebConnect on June 30, 2025 so all chat conversations will happen on Messenger after that date.

This decision allows us to focus on enhancing our new and improved Messenger product, which offers advanced features, a modern interface, and better reliability to meet your evolving needs.

What You Need to Do

To ensure uninterrupted service, all customers currently using WebConnect will need to update their code snippet to the new Messenger version before June 30, 2025. You may already be using Messenger, but if you are not, the process is simple and takes just a few minutes:

1. Log into app.goboomtown.com as a user with proper admin permissions.
2. Go to Settings in your account.
3. Navigate to Channels.
4. Open the the active Messenger configuration screens for your active instances.
5. Copy the updated Messenger code snippet from the Install Code tab.
6. Replace your existing WebConnect snippet with the updated Messenger one on your website.

If you need assistance, please reach out to help@ovationcxm.com and we would be happy to walk you through the process.

Am I Already Using Messenger?

Most organizations are already using the new version. To confirm if you are already using the latest Messenger code snippet, you can look at the code snippet on your website. If the code snippet references “Webconnect” anywhere in it, you are on the old version. If the code snippet references “Messenger”, you are on the latest version.

Here’s a sample of an updated snippet:
