Two Steps to Launch

1. Design Your Chat Bot
2. Build Your Knowledge Base

Design the Chat Bot

Configure your chat bot with your branding, colors, logos, and a custom welcome message. 

1. Navigate to the Settings icon in the left rail. Click Concierge under Chat Interfaces. Click the chat bot in the list. 
2. Add a Concierge Name (internal name) and Bot Name (external name). Bot name must be 15 characters or less.
3. Upload a Company Logo. This logo is displayed along the top bar of the concierge. Use a PNG file with a height that scales to 60px (120x,240x). The width can vary.
4. Upload an Avatar. This avatar icon is displayed next to the Bot Name. Use a PNG file that scales to 40x40 (80x80, 400x400).
5. Add a hex number as your color them. This color will appear on the top bar behind your logo, chat bubble, and background of the user's chat.
6. Click Save in the top right corner.

Your chat bot will be as smart as you make it.

4. Now, click Add exchange in the top right corner. 
5. Type the inquiry (your question), choose Simple Message on the right. Click Save and Continue.
