Megadesk Documentation

Setting up your chatbot

Get started with Megadesk and streamline your customer support.

Onboarding

This guide assumes you have already completed the onboarding process. The onboarding will have the bot set up with a basic Identity and a short description.

Adding the widget to your website

Go to Settings > Chat widget and copy your embed script:

<script
  defer
  src="https://getmegadesk.com/embed.js"
  data-pub="YOUR_TENANT_ID"
>
</script>

Paste this into the <head> tag of your HTML file. The head tag is located at the top of your HTML file and will most likely already have some <script> tags present.

Restart your website and you now have your own chatbot ready to serve your customers. Try asking it what the company does — it will refer to the description you wrote during onboarding.

Hello world chat

Right now the bot does not have much context. You can hide it temporarily under Settings > Identity by scrolling down and enabling "Hide bot".

Next steps

Now that the widget is live, head to the Identity docs to customize the bot's appearance and behavior.
