You will configure these features from the Chat dashboard. You must be an administrator to perform these tasks. Once they are configured, and the Chat toggle in Admin Center is turned on, you are ready to add Web Widget (Classic) to your website or help center.
Note: Keep in mind that this list doesn’t cover general Web Widget features such as theme
color, position, and button text. For information about non-chat Web Widget (Classic)
features that are configured from Admin Center, see Configuring components in Web Widget (Classic).
