Hi Sarath,

Regarding phone number support for zE.identify, you can follow and vote on this existing post: https://support.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/115008262607-Limited-zE-identify-

If you want to set the phone number just for Chat, you can use the following API: https://api.zopim.com/files/meshim/widget/controllers/LiveChatAPI-js.html#setPhone

For additional information, you can either send it via chat tags or by adding notes to the visitor.

For the visitor path information, you will need to use the following JS API: https://api.zopim.com/files/meshim/widget/controllers/LiveChatAPI-js.html#sendVisitorPath

If you have questions about using the JS APIs, please email chat@zendesk.com
