Support Automation #3498: E-commerce Fulfillment with Pipedrive + Slack + OpenAI

Problem

Agents switch between Pipedrive and Slack to complete e-commerce fulfillment, which slows resolution and fragments ticket history.

Connecting the tools keeps customer context in one thread.

Workflow

Pipedrive ticket event → classify/priority rules → update Slack → ping channel in OpenAI.

• Slack
• OpenAI
