# Quick Start

TIP

AIHelp offers both API and URL options for integration, you can choose your preferred method according to your own needs.

# API

To integrate AIHelp by API, you need to download and import the aihelp.js script, call init API to initialize AIHelp, and show API to open up AIHelp window.

Integrate AIHelp:

<script src="https://cdn.aihelp.net/webchatv3/aihelp.js"></script>

Specify the width and height css attributes for AIHelp window:

<head>
  <style>
    .AIHelpSupportBox {
      width: 100vw;
      height: 100vh;
    }
  </style>
</head>

Define a self-executing function, and start the initialization for AIHelp by calling the init API:

<script src="https://cdn.aihelp.net/webchatv3/aihelp.js"></script>
  
<body>
  <script>
    (function () {
      var initConfig = {
        appKey: "THIS IS YOUR APP KEY",
        domain: "THIS IS YOUR APP DOMAIN",
        appId: "THIS IS YOUR APP ID",
        appName: "THIS IS YOUR CUSTOM APP NAME(OPTIONAL)",
        language: "THIS IS YOUR DEFAULT LANGUAGE(OPTIONAL)"
      };
      AIHelpSupport.init(initConfig);
    })();
  </script>
</body>

Call the show API to open up the AIHelp window:

if (typeof AIHelpSupport !== undefined) {
  AIHelpSupport.show();
}

# URL

If the API cannot meet your requirements in some cases, you can also choose to open the AIHelp window by appending a URL:

<script>
  let appKey = "THIS IS YOUR APP KEY";
  let domain = "THIS IS YOUR APP DOMAIN";
  let appId = "THIS IS YOUR APP ID";
  (function () {
    let url = `https://${domain}/webchatv3/#/appKey/${appKey}/domain/${domain}/appId/${appId}`;
    window.open(url);
  })();
</script>

# Definition

# appKey / domain / appId

Type: string
Detail: Required. You can get these parameters at here:

# appName

# language

Type: string
Default: browser language
Detail: Optional. This is AIHelp's default initialize language; If you are not setting this, we will use browser's language to initialize AIHelp.

# Style

You can cascade AIHelp's original style by CSS.

In order to do this, you'll need the following selectors:

The root element: .AIHelpSupportBox
The close button in the upper right corner：.close

Assuming you need to add a Contact-Us button in the bottom right corner, the css code example is as follows:

Custom AIHelp Stylesheet

.AIHelpSupportBox {
  width: 375px;
  height: 500px;
  position: fixed;
  right: 1rem;
  bottom: 4rem;
}

.close {
  position: absolute;
  right: 10px;
  top: 10px;
  width: 30px;
  height: 30px;
  color: #fff;
  background: #f9c633;
  border-radius: 25px;
  cursor: pointer;
}

.close:before {
  position: absolute;
  content: "";
  width: 20px;
  height: 2px;
  background: #fff;
  transform: rotate(45deg);
  top: 14px;
  left: 6px;
}

.close:after {
  content: "";
  position: absolute;
  width: 20px;
  height: 2px;
  background: #fff;
  transform: rotate(-45deg);
  top: 14px;
  left: 6px;
}

Afterwards, you would get an AIHelp window just like this:
