Allowed websites
Choose which websites may show your chatbot. A new chatbot works on every website until you limit it.
What it does
Open your chatbot, then Data & Scope, then Allowed websites. The list decides where the chat window appears. A new chatbot starts with a star (*) in the list, which means every website, so you can embed it anywhere without setting anything up. An empty list also allows every website.
Limit it to your own websites
- Type your website, for example yourbusiness.com or *.mycompany.com, and press Allow.
- Remove the star by pressing the x on it.
- A parent domain also covers its sub-sites: yourbusiness.com covers shop.yourbusiness.com.
- On any other website no chat bubble is shown.
- While the star is in the list, other entries have no effect.
- The auto-detect script (for several portals) needs the website listed by name. A star does not count for it.
This is a convenience limit, not a secret. A caller that is not a web browser can send any website name.
