Getting Started with ChattyPie
Welcome to ChattyPie! This guide walks you through setting up your workspace, inviting your team, installing the chat widget, and handling your first customer conversation.
1. Create Your Workspace
After signing up you land on the dashboard. Your workspace is your team's shared environment — all conversations, settings, and data live here.
- Go to Settings > General
- Enter your workspace name (e.g. "Acme Support")
- Upload a logo — this appears in the chat widget and knowledge base portal
- Click Save
2. Add Your Team
Navigate to Settings > Moderators and click Invite Member. Enter an email address and choose a role:
| Role | Permissions |
|---|---|
| Owner | Full access — billing, settings, conversations |
| Moderator | Conversations, templates, knowledge base |
Team members receive an email invitation with a link to join.
3. Install the Chat Widget
Go to Settings > Installation and copy the embed snippet:
<script
src="https://your-domain.com/widget.min.js"
data-website-uid="YOUR_WORKSPACE_UID"
async>
</script>
Paste this before the closing </body> tag on every page where you want the widget to appear. The widget loads asynchronously so it won't slow down your site.
4. Handle Your First Conversation
When a visitor sends a message through the widget, it appears in the Conversations tab in real time.
- Click the conversation to open the thread
- Type your reply in the composer at the bottom
- Press Enter (or click Send) to respond
- Use the right sidebar to set priority, assign a team member, or add tags
5. Organize with Tags
Tags help you categorize conversations by topic. Create tags like billing, bug, or feature-request in Settings > Tags. Apply them to conversations for filtering and reporting.
