Allow Pre-Chat Forms Without the Mandatory "Message to agent" Field
Currently, customers are trying to build frictionless webchat experiences where an end-user simply clicks a predefined radio button (e.g., "New Enquiry" vs. "Existing Enquiry") and hits submit to enter the queue. They do not want the end-user to type out a message to initiate the chat.
Allow admins to successfully save and deploy a pre-chat form that consists solely of a Category, Custom field, or Messaging variable, without the strict requirement of the Message to agent field. The selected radio button/dropdown value should be sufficient to generate the initial interaction payload and place the user in the queue.
