How to connect web chat

Web chat helps to integrate a chat directly from Voximplant Kit to your website. To create a web chat, do the following:

2. Click Settings > Channels and select Web chat.
3. In the General tab, enter the name of the channel.
4. Select API Token from the drop-down list.

5. Select a queue or function from the drop-down list to redirect messages from the channel.
6. Add skills, if needed.
7. In the Customize tab, enter the web chat header.
8. Upload the company logo.

9. Configure the chat position, colors, and the greeting message.
10. Click Add channel.
11. Click Generate code to generate the code that allows to implement directly into your site's HTML.

The generated code contains the client_data object that helps you to configure data transfer to the widget settings during initialization and provide more information to your agents.

 `{
     client_data: {
  "client_id": 'xxx', // Customer ID 
  "client_phone": "", // Customer phone number
  "client_avatar": "", // Customer avatar link
  "client_display_name": "John Smith" // Customer name 
  "client_email": "", // Customer email
  "client_language": "RU | EN" // Customer language 
}

This configuration allows you to make communication with your clients easier - based on provided data in the client_data object, the system fills in the form automatically.

12. Click Copy to clipboard to copy the generated code and paste it where you want your button to be shown.
