Connecting MAX to amoCRM
ChatRex Lite connects MAX to amoCRM so that you can work with messages directly from deal and contact cards while keeping the conversation history in the CRM.
MAX connects using a QR code, similar to WhatsApp.

Before starting, confirm that:
- You have ChatRex Lite widget installed in amoCRM.
- You have an active MAX account.
- The device with the installed MAX is enabled and has access to the Internet;
- The MAX account is not connected to other integration services.
Connect MAX
- Open amoCRM and go to the ChatRex Lite widget settings.
- Go to Channels.
- Select Connect MAX.
- Wait for the QR code to appear.
- Open the MAX app on your device.
- Scan the QR code.
- Wait for Connected status.
After a successful connection, the MAX channel will appear in the list of connected channels.
Set up new deals
In the connected MAX channel settings, select the amoCRM stage for new conversations and specify the name of the deal ChatRex should create.
To substitute the value of the amoCRM field in the name, enter @ and select the desired variable.
Where messages are displayed
After the MAX connection:
- Incoming and outgoing messages appear in deal cards;
