# Connect Help Scout to Queue and automate your tasks

## Why integrate Help Scout with Queue

The Help Scout to Queue integration helps you sync data, automate manual tasks, and keep your stack aligned — without writing code.

### Give your support team full Shopify context on every conversation

When a customer reaches out in Help Scout, MESA pulls their Shopify order history, tags, and customer details into the conversation. Your team responds with the full picture without switching between tools to find it.

### Create and update Shopify customer records from Help Scout conversations

When a key detail is captured or a contact is updated in Help Scout, MESA writes it to the corresponding Shopify customer record. Your store and your support platform stay in sync without anyone reconciling them manually.

### Trigger Help Scout conversations from Shopify order and fulfillment events

When an order ships, a delivery is delayed, or a return is filed in Shopify, MESA opens or updates the right Help Scout conversation automatically. Your support team gets ahead of customer questions before they arrive.

### Collect orders into a single daily fulfillment batch

Queue holds incoming orders throughout the day and releases them together on your schedule. Your fulfillment system receives a clean batch rather than a continuous stream of individual requests.

### Send inventory updates to your ERP on a schedule

Instead of pushing every stock change as it happens, Queue accumulates updates until the scheduled window. Your ERP or warehouse system receives one clean batch per session — not a flood of individual calls.

### Deliver one team digest instead of constant pings

Queue collects the events your team cares about — orders, flags, or refunds — and sends one consolidated Slack message or email when the timer fires. Signal, not noise.

## Build any Help Scout and Queue automation

MESA helps you connect apps to automate repetitive tasks. A trigger is an event that starts a workflow, and actions are the steps that occur when it's running.
