How To Install The Conversational Widget On Your Website

Hi, I’ve a question about the way how you can trigger Conversational Widget. Is it possible to trigger the modal window somehow else (custom element on website, like button) other than by floating / button trigger type offered by InSided? Thanks!

Hey @lukas.ther - welcome to inSpired!

We have a JavaScript API for the embeddable widgets. Opening the widget is not actually one of the functions we have available….but it is possible to achieve this using the following (under-the-hood) JavaScript: inSided.conversational.$store.dispatch('SLIDER_OPEN', {})

Hey - 

So I’m about to pop this baddy into our SaaS product. Issue is, the URL for each client is going to be different. e.g. accounts.bizzabo.com/823402/events/23425/contacts. The numbers shown in that example are variable. Is there a random operator I can use like * or similar?

We definitely need this functionality, cos we will wanna be super detailed in what items show on what page.

I know that when I search within the community it will search across my Zendesk and Skilljar instances as well as Community content. Does the in-app widget do the same and scraping and providing potential results? 

I’m having trouble with the embedded widget. Specifically, it appears that I must allow `’unsafe-eval’` in my content security policy in order for the widget to work.  Is there any way to get around this limitation? I really don’t want to have to turn unsafe-eval on everywhere in order to use the widget.

a bit more info: the error shows up as elementInIFrame.contentDocument being undefined, which your script then attempts to access.

Heya @William Pleasant-Ryan !

Sorry for the delay on this one. I have to admit that Content Security Policy stuff is a bit of a nightmare to figure out, even for me. But I’m also pretty certain that unsafe-eval is not what you’re after here - especially not an open ended one!

I get the feeling that unsafe-inline might be more appropriate. But if you absolutely have to end up using unsafe-eval, you might be able to lock it down to just the relevant domains, so that at least it’s not an open invite to the entire internet. Please could you show us your CSP though, as it may help with identifying what’s wrong.

Thanks!

Hey @daniel.boon . Quick question. 

We don’t want the widget to appear as a label on the right hand side of the page, but rather to open up when users click on the word ‘community’. I assume that’s possible and we can have the pop up to appear only when someone clicks on a CTA, rather than a permanent element on the side. 

let me know if the above makes sense. 

Hey @Gabolino - one of my previous replies might be helpful here → this JavaScript enables you to open the widget programmatically (e.g. when someone clicks on a link that you’ve added to your menu). Hope this helps.

Fab. Thanks @daniel.boon 

Are there any examples about the widget where community content is embedded to the web page? Sorry about my terms, I don`t mean this floating widget, is this something that it isnt widget at all? :)

I am looking for the ways to embed community discussion or article to our home page. With embedding the content can be read easily, without any clicks, just by visiting the home page.
