# Website Chatbot

The **Website Chatbot** is a great export option if you'd like your users to be able to optionally interact with a chatbot while on your website. The chatbot will be available as an icon that opens a window.

Publish your project first, then embed your chat assistant in your website by clicking the **Embed** button on the top right of the page. Paste the HTML or React code into the UI of your website. Each time you make changes to your project, remember to **Publish** them first so that the changes populate to the user side.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.stackai.com/interface-and-deployment/end-user-interfaces/website-chatbot.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
