Widget Customisation

Yes. Each Chat AI Agent has its own widget configuration. You can create multiple agents with different configurations and embed different agents on different pages of your website. This is useful if different pages serve different purposes (e.g., a pricing page vs. a support page).

Chat AI Agent on Web Chat

Check that the agent is active, AI credits are available in your AI Wallet, and the session hasn’t timed out (Web Chat sessions time out after 1 hour of inactivity by default). See Chat AI Agent Channel Behaviour.
Web Chat and WhatsApp/Instagram use separate configurable inactivity settings. WhatsApp and Instagram default to 3 minutes. You can change the timeout in the agent’s drop-off settings. Details: Chat AI Agent Channel Behaviour.

Contact Capture and Handoff

Enable Contact Capture in AI Agents and Bots → [Your Agent] → Settings → Web Widget Settings, select the Email field, and choose when to ask. See Web Chat Setup.
Enable Handoff Configuration in AI Agents and Bots → [Your Agent] → Settings → Web Widget Settings, select the WhatsApp channel, and choose a display style. Details: Web Chat Visitor Tracking.
