What you set

Customer chatbot: welcome text, example questions, and tools

  • Welcome message and Example questions, per language
  • Extra knowledge — facts the chatbot must consider on every answer
  • Allowed answers — only with a matching source, FAQ topics, or free answers
  • Tools — which FAQs it may search, and whether it may create a ticket
  • Add to your website — only on Public. Copy the snippet into the site. The public chatbot cannot create tickets.

KIX has no public FAQs. For that system, put the facts in Extra knowledge or allow customer-portal FAQs.
