Hey BotStar users!

Boei can easily be connected to BotStar. It is super simple!

This is how it will look like:

Step 1. Load BotStar

You probably need to change your current embed HTML code for BotStar.

BotStar can be loaded in multiple configurations (LiveChat, Inline, etc).

To make it most simple, please use the following HTML code for loading BotStar:

<script>var BotStar={appId:"BOTSTAR_APP_ID",mode:"livechat"};!function(t,a){var e=function(){(e.q=e.q||[]).push(arguments)};
e.q=e.q||[],t.BotStarApi=e;!function(){var t=a.createElement("script");
t.type="text/javascript",t.async=1,t.src="https://widget.botstar.com/static/js/widget.js";
var e=a.getElementsByTagName("script")[0];e.parentNode.insertBefore(t,e)}();}(window,document)</script>
<script async defer src="https://cdn.boei.help/hello.js"></script>
