Representative actions

  • Create attachment

    Tool to upload a new attachment. Use when you need to send a file to Helpwise and receive its attachment metadata.

  • Add note to conversation

    Tool to add a note to a conversation. Use after obtaining the conversation_id to provide context.

  • Create Helpwise Team

    Creates a new team in Helpwise to group users for collaboration and assignment purposes. Use this tool when you need to: - Create a new team with a unique name - Optionally add a description for the team - Optionally assign initial members by their user IDs IMPORTANT: Team creation via API is not available in the current Helpwise API. All tested endpoints (/api/v1/teams, /dev-apis/teams, /api/v1/team, /dev-apis/team) return 404. Team management appears to be limited to the Helpwise web interface. If you need to create teams, please: 1. Use the Helpwise web interface at https://app.helpwise.io 2. Contact Helpwise support at dev@helpwise.io to request API endpoint availability This action is implemented speculatively for future API support and follows standard patterns used in other Helpwise actions.

  • Create Helpwise Webhook

    Creates a new webhook subscription in Helpwise to receive real-time event notifications. Use this action to programmatically subscribe to Helpwise events like conversation creation, message replies, conversation assignments, status changes, and tag applications. Webhooks deliver JSON payloads to your specified callback URL when subscribed events occur. IMPORTANT: Helpwise webhook management is primarily done through the UI at: Settings > Automation > Integrations > Webhooks (https://app.helpwise.io/settings/integrations) This action attempts to use programmatic API endpoints, but if they're unavailable in your Helpwise plan or environment, you'll need to create webhooks manually via the UI.

  • Delete Contact

    Deletes a contact from Helpwise by its unique identifier (ID). Use this action when you need to permanently remove a contact from your Helpwise account. Returns an empty response (HTTP 204 No Content) on successful deletion. Note: This action is idempotent - deleting a non-existent contact will return an appropriate error.

Connection

API and auth details

Helpwise is an omnichannel helpdesk for shared inboxes, live chat, customer portal, SMS, automations, SLAs, analytics, and webhooks. Public API endpoint documentation is limited, so integrations should emphasize customer communication, ticketing, inbox, automation, and webhook capabilities based on official product and help resources.

Can Codex work with Helpwise through Type?

Yes. Add a Helpwise connection to a Space that runs Codex, then use its approved tools and data from any channel in that Space.

Is this the same as a Helpwise MCP server?
