Setup guide (opens in a new tab)Recurly holds the billing record and Help Scout holds the conversation, so support often ends up guessing which account is past due or up for renewal. Connecting them lets renewal events in Recurly post notes and tags onto the right Help Scout conversation, and lets new Help Scout customers turn into Recurly accounts. The agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running.

Questions
Help Scout and Recurly, answered
Can a Help Scout note show what the customer actually owes?
Yes. Before a Recurly subscription renews, the agent can read the account and its balance in Recurly, find the customer's open conversation in Help Scout, and add an internal note with the balance and past-due status.
What starts things from the Help Scout side?
Help Scout polls for new conversations, customers, users and mailboxes, and any of those can start a run. A new Help Scout customer can create a matching Recurly account, and a new conversation can pull that account's Recurly invoices for the agent handling it.
What can start an automation from Help Scout?
Any of Help Scout's 4 triggers in the catalog, including New Conversation, New Customer, New Mailbox and New User. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Recurly when something happens in Help Scout?
Any of Recurly's 80 actions, including Create account, Get account, List account invoices and Create line item. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Recurly to Help Scout?
Yes. When something happens in Recurly, your agent can act in Help Scout too. This page covers both directions: Recurly's triggers and Help Scout's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Help Scout or Recurly?
No. Both are in the catalog with their triggers and actions. You describe the automation; your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running.
What happens when something fails?
Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
