Setting up the ASAP Help Widget on the Web

Setting up the ASAP Help Widget on the Web

Introduction

The ASAP help widget for websites makes your help center easily available for your end-customers. By embedding this widget with your website, you can provide your customers with easy access to your:
  • Customer support team (to raise tickets)
  • Knowledge base (to access help articles) 
  • User community (to interact with other customers)
  • Answer Bot (to find quick answers through Zia, our AI-powered virtual assistant)
  • Guided Conversations (to access the bot builder)
You can choose to display the same help widget across all the pages of your website or a unique add-on for each webpage. Following this approach will deliver contextual support for your customers. For example, if you run a retail business, you can display a department-specific help widget on the page for each department. In other words, the help widget for the electronics page can be configured to only display help articles related to electronics. In contrast, the help widget for the footwear page can be configured to only display help articles related to footwear and so on.



The ASAP SDK is compatible from iOS 13.0 and Xcode version 14.3.1.

  3. Choose All Departments or Specific Department to map the ASAP widget's actions.
  4. Select modules, such as Knowledge Base, Community, Chat, and/or Ticket, to associate them with the ASAP Help Widget.
You can choose to enable an ASAP Help Widget specifically for the web, iOS, and/or Android for each module.
 
   5. Click Generate. The ASAP help widget will be created. You can preview it in the bottom-right corner.
You can preview your ASAP help widget from the right-side pane anytime by clicking the ASAP launcher icon at the bottom-right corner of the page.
After you paste the snippet in the HTML source code, the ASAP launcher icon will appear on your webpage, making it easy for your customers to ask for help.
 
With ASAP, your end-customers don't have to navigate to a different page on your website to access help articles, seek help from customer service personnel, or interact with fellow users of your service or product. They simply need to click a single icon on your website.
