Setting up your preferred channel(s) in few simple steps. This is how you do it:
Set up your preferred channels
Here, you choose the channels you want to connect your chatbot to. The webchat is selected by default. You can add other channels like Facebook, Twitter and WhatsApp.
Set up your webchat
Step 1: In the first step, you upload your business logo. This logo will be at the header section of your web chat as shown below.
Step 2 and Step 3: Here, you adjust the width and height of your logo. You can either type in your preferred size or use the toggle below to select your preferred size. As you adjust your logo size, keep an eye on your logo at the header section(indicated by the downward arrow). It shows you the appearance of your logo as you adjust.
Step 4: Select your header and button colour as shown below.
To select your header colour, click on background colour and select your preferred colour
Step 5: This is your preferred text colour. Just like you did for background colour, click on colour you want your texts to be in.
Step 6: In this final step, you write your widget pop up message. This is different from your welcome message. The welcome message is the first message customers get from your bot when they start chatting with it. The widget message is more like a callout that invites customers to click on the widget to begin a conversation. The widget message precedes the welcome message.
There’s a default text on the box already. You can either leave it or delete it and put yours.
Click on save to save your changes.
