GENERAL FAQs
Video: How does the Customer Radar ezyVet integration work?
Can I change the 1-hour delay after an appointment to send a feedback invitation?
Yes, you can change the delay in Customer Radar. We recommend 1 hour so the experience from the appointment is fresh and provides more detail, but some places may prefer to wait up to a day.
Can I choose Email or Text Message to ask customers for feedback?
Yes. Customers will be sent an email. If they don't have an email, they'll get a text message, (ezyVet charges may apply).
In Customer Radar, you can change the setting to send a text or email first or use text or email only.
If a customer brings in two pets, will they be sent two feedback invitations?
No. Customer Radar checks if a customer has received a feedback request in the last 60 days (or any time-period you select) before sending another one.
If a customer has already received a feedback request within this period, they won't be sent another.
Which email address is the feedback invitation sent from?
The email is sent from the email selected in the Customer Radar sign-up form. This can be one email for all locations or a unique email for each location.
If this user is deleted in ezyVet or needs to be changed, please let the Customer Radar Support team know the new user.
Can a specific customer be excluded from receiving the feedback invitation?
Yes, by using the tag function in ezyVet.
Assign a tag to a contact then let Customer Radar know the tag name by emailing it to support@customerradar.com
Next time one of your contacts with that tag has an appointment they won't be sent the feedback invitation.
Need help setting up a tag? Check out the 'Tag Configuration' article in the ezyVet Knowledge Center.
Should I send a feedback request if I know the customer will likely be unhappy?
Yes. It's important to ask unhappy customers for feedback so they can share their concerns privately. This can prevent them from posting negative reviews on public platforms like Google Reviews if they feel unheard.
How do I update my Customer Radar integration settings?
For any setting changes you're not able to make, send the details to the Customer Radar Support team at support@customerradar.com

TECHNICAL FAQs
Is customer data stored anywhere outside of ezyVet or Customer Radar?
No. Personal data is passed securely straight from ezyVet to Customer Radar and is not stored anywhere in aggregate.
What customer data is passed from ezyVet to Customer Radar?
Currently, data for each appointment includes the Email Address, Mobile, Appointment ID,
Appointment Type, Appointment Start Time, Animal Species and Animal Name.
How does the integration work?
- ezyVet API transmits customer appointment data to Customer Radar after an appointment.
- Customer Radar processes this data against predefined send rules.
- Send rules include filters for appointment type, status, and feedback invitation frequency (e.g., no repeat within 60 days).
- Configuration options in Customer Radar allow clinics to customize send rules based on their operational preferences.
- Qualifying appointments trigger Customer Radar to issue a POST request to ezyVet, initiating an Email or Text Message feedback invitation.
- The invitation utilizes a template containing a unique feedback link for the clinic.
- Customer Radar employs the ezyVet API for retrieving appointment specifics, which are subsequently associated with the corresponding feedback in the dashboard for analytical purposes.
