Before You Begin

To Configure a Chat Widget

• Ensure that the Inbound Chat message field of the services to which you want to route a chat (that is, chat services) contains a message template.

  The Inbound Chat message field appears on the Settings tab of the Services window. This window appears when you click Services > Services on the Configure tab.

• Ensure that the Chat Routing Token field of the chat services contains a value that indicates a routing token/department to which you want to route a chat (for example, Banking, Billing, Collections, or Support).

  The Chat Routing Token field appears on the Settings tab of the Services window.

• Ensure that the chat channel is enabled for the agents who are assigned to the chat services.

  The option to enable the chat channel appears on the Info tab of the Agent Details window for an agent. This window appears when you click Agents > Agents on the Configure tab and then double-click the row (in the Agents window) displaying the attributes of the agent.

To Configure a KB Widget

Ensure that the KB portals that you want to make available for your customers are published and that the articles on the portals are public. 

To Configure a Ticketing Widget

Ensure that the ticket forms that you want to make available for your customers are published.
