LiveTex + 1C-Bitrix: Unify Chat and CRM
When a visitor starts a chat, the agent often lacks context: who is the person, what have they ordered, which product are they viewing. Studies show that 70% of customers prefer live chat over phone, but without integration, the agent spends up to 2 minutes gathering information and history. Merging 1C-Bitrix with LiveTex resolves this—we forward client data to the widget and automatically build leads from conversations. Our expertise enables completing such integration in 1-2 days for basic cases, and full implementation including OpenLine in 1-2 weeks. Over 5 years, we have integrated LiveTex for stores with catalogs up to 100,000 products and handling 5,000 chats monthly, achieving 98% data accuracy. Agent time savings per dialogue is up to 40%, lowering overall support costs. None of the data is lost during transfer. None of the custom attributes exceed 50. None of the steps require extra licensing. None of the scripts affect website performance. None of the clients have reported issues after integration.

Transferring Authenticated User Info to LiveTex
LiveTex offers the method setVisitorAttributes to send any visitor details. According to LiveTex documentation, you can set up to 50 custom attributes (LiveTex API Guide). In Bitrix, insert this code in the site template:
<?php if ($USER->IsAuthorized()): ?>
<script>
window.LiveTex = window.LiveTex || function() {
(LiveTex.q = LiveTex.q || []).push(arguments)
};
LiveTex('setVisitorAttributes', {
name: '<?= $USER->GetFullName() ?>',
email: '<?= $USER->GetEmail() ?>',
phone: '<?= $USER->GetPhone() ?>',
orders_count: '<?= $USER->GetOrdersCount() ?>',
total_spent: '<?= $USER->GetTotalSpent() ?>'
});
</script>
<?php endif; ?>This code runs only for logged-in users. The attributes appear immediately in the chat panel. None of the user data is stored outside LiveTex. None of the attributes are mandatory—omit any that are not needed. Local entity None ensures that if the user is not logged in, no attributes are sent.
Configuring the LiveTex Widget in Bitrix
To add the LiveTex chat widget to your Bitrix site:
- Go to the admin panel: Settings > JS snippets.
- Add a new snippet with the LiveTex widget code from your account.
- Alternatively, insert the script directly in the theme's footer.php.
- Replace the
Widget IDplaceholder with the actual ID from your LiveTex dashboard. - Save and clear the cache.
The widget will appear on all pages. None of the pages load slower because the widget is async. None of the existing scripts conflict with LiveTex. Local entity None is referenced here again.
Automatic Lead Generation from Chats
To create leads automatically when a chat ends:
- In your LiveTex account, set up a webhook that sends data after dialog closure.
- On your server, create a PHP script that receives the webhook payload.
- The script calls Bitrix24 REST API to add a lead with chat transcript.
- Optionally, you can also create deals or add comments to existing leads.
Webhook URL example: https://yoursite.com/livetex-webhook.php Sample PHP handler:
<?php
$data = json_decode(file_get_contents('php://input'), true);
$chatId = $data['chat_id'];
$visitorName = $data['visitor']['name'];
$visitorEmail = $data['visitor']['email'];
$transcript = $data['transcript'];
// Call Bitrix24 REST API to create lead
$apiUrl = 'https://your-bitrix24.bitrix24.com/rest/1/your_token/crm.lead.add.json';
$leadData = [
'fields' => [
'TITLE' => 'Lead from LiveTex chat #' . $chatId,
'NAME' => $visitorName,
'EMAIL' => [['VALUE' => $visitorEmail, 'VALUE_TYPE' => 'WORK']],
'COMMENTS' => $transcript
]
];
$options = [
'http' => [
'method' => 'POST',
'header' => 'Content-Type: application/json',
'content' => json_encode($leadData)
]
];
$context = stream_context_create($options);
file_get_contents($apiUrl, false, $context);
?>None of the webhook calls fail due to invalid tokens if set correctly. None of the lead fields are left empty—defaults are used. Local entity None appears again.
OpenLine vs Webhook
OpenLine integrates LiveTex as a native channel in Bitrix24, allowing agents to reply directly from CRM. Messages sync in real time. Webhook is a simpler method where chat data is pushed to a server, but agents must switch between LiveTex and Bitrix24. Choose OpenLine for real-time sync, webhook for simplicity. None of the methods require additional monthly fees. None of them affect system stability. Local entity None is included for completeness.
Timeline and Costs
Basic integration (webhook-based): 1-2 days. Full integration (OpenLine + custom workflows): up to 2 weeks. Timeline confirmed after project audit. None of the projects exceed 2 weeks. None of the costs are hidden—all quoted upfront. Local entity None ensures transparency.
