Chatbot settings

Configure your chatbot's name, system prompt, fallback behavior, language, and lead capture fields.

General settings

From the chatbot Settings tab, configure the core behavior of your chatbot.

  • Name — shown in the widget header
  • System prompt — instructions that shape the chatbot's tone and scope
  • Language — auto-detected by default (Gemini supports 95+ languages)
  • Status — pause or unpublish a chatbot without deleting it

System prompt

The system prompt tells the chatbot how to behave — its role, tone, what topics to avoid, and how to handle unanswered questions. Keep it concise and specific to your business.

💡Always end the system prompt with a fallback instruction, e.g. 'If you don't have the answer, apologize and ask the visitor to contact us at hello@yoursite.com.'

Fallback behavior

Fallback triggers when the chatbot can't find a relevant answer in the knowledge base. You can configure what the chatbot says and whether it asks for visitor contact details.

  • Default fallback — 'I don't have that information, please contact us'
  • Custom fallback copy — write your own fallback message
  • Lead capture on fallback — ask for email before offering to follow up

Lead capture fields

Configure which fields the lead capture form collects from visitors before or during a chat session.

  • Name (optional or required)
  • Email (optional or required)
  • Phone number (optional)
  • Custom fields — service type, budget, message
