Setup Wizard¶
The Setup Wizard guides you through configuring your chatbot in 5 steps. It launches automatically after plugin activation, or you can access it anytime from Inqyra > Settings > Run Setup Wizard.
The step indicator at the top tracks your progress through the wizard
Step 1: Welcome & License¶
The first step welcomes you and offers the option to activate a premium license.
- Free users: Simply click Next to continue — no license is required
- Premium users: Enter your license key and click Validate to unlock premium features
Step 1: Enter your license key or skip to continue with the free version
After validation, a checkmark list shows which premium features are unlocked (document upload, webhooks, synonyms, statistics).
Step 2: AI Provider & API Key¶
Choose which AI provider will power your chatbot and enter your API key.
Choosing a Provider¶
Select one of the four available providers:
| Provider | Best For | Get API Key |
|---|---|---|
| Claude (Anthropic) | Recommended — excellent reasoning and natural responses | console.anthropic.com |
| OpenAI | Wide model range, GPT-4o for balanced quality/cost | platform.openai.com |
| Google Gemini | Cost-effective, fast response times | aistudio.google.com |
| Mistral | European provider, competitive pricing | console.mistral.ai |
Step 2: Select your AI provider — Claude is highlighted as the recommended choice
Entering Your API Key¶
- Click on your chosen provider card
- Enter your API key in the field that appears
- Click Validate to verify the key works
- Once validated, choose a model from the dropdown
After validation succeeds, the model selector appears
Query Rewriting (Optional)¶
Enable Query Rewriting to improve search accuracy. When enabled, a fast AI model rephrases visitor questions before searching your knowledge base. This uses a lightweight model (e.g., Claude Haiku, GPT-4o-mini) to keep costs low.
Step 3: Chatbot Configuration¶
This step has two parts: basic settings and widget appearance.
Part A: Basic Settings¶
- Chatbot Name — The name shown in the widget header (defaults to your site name)
- Language — Select the language your chatbot speaks (26 languages available). This determines the language of the chatbot responses and the widget interface text
- System Prompt — Instructions that tell the AI how to behave
Step 3a: Configure your chatbot's name, language, and behavior
AI Prompt Builder¶
Click Generate with AI to use the built-in prompt builder. It asks you a few questions about your business and generates a tailored system prompt for you.
The AI prompt builder helps you create an effective system prompt through a short conversation
Advanced Settings¶
Expand the Advanced Settings section to configure:
- Max Tokens per Response — Maximum length of each AI response (default: 4096)
- Daily Token Limit — Maximum tokens the chatbot may use per day (0 = unlimited)
- Cost Limit (USD) — Maximum daily spending (0 = unlimited)
- Hourly Request Limit — Maximum chat messages per hour (0 = unlimited)
Part B: Widget Appearance¶
Customize how the chat widget looks on your website. A live preview on the right side of the screen updates as you make changes.
Step 3b: Customize the widget appearance with real-time preview
Available settings:
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Primary Color | Main color for the header, buttons, and user messages |
| Text Color | Text color on colored backgrounds |
| Header Title | Title displayed in the chat window header |
| Header Subtitle | Smaller text below the title |
| Greeting Message | The first message visitors see when they open the chat |
| Button Text | Optional text shown on the chat toggle button |
| Send Button Text | Optional label on the send button |
| Widget Position | Corner placement: bottom-right, bottom-left, top-right, or top-left |
| Powered By | Footer credit text |
| Header Icon | Upload a custom avatar image for the chat header |
| Show Icon in Messages | Display the avatar next to assistant messages |
| Mobile Enabled | Show the widget on mobile devices |
| Display Mode | Show on all pages, only selected pages, or everywhere except selected pages |
Step 4: Content Indexing¶
In this step, Inqyra crawls your website content and creates the knowledge base.
Select Post Types¶
Choose which content types to index:
- Posts and Pages are available on all plans
- Custom post types (e.g., products, portfolio items) require a premium license
Step 4: Select which content types to include in your knowledge base
Advanced Crawl Settings¶
Expand Advanced Settings to choose which HTML tags to extract content from. The defaults (<p>, <h1>–<h4>, <li>, <td>, <blockquote>, <figcaption>) work well for most sites.
Start Indexing¶
Click Start Indexing to begin. A progress bar shows two phases:
- Crawling — Inqyra reads your pages and splits content into chunks
- Generating embeddings — Your browser converts chunks into searchable vectors
The progress bar tracks both the crawling and embedding phases
Embeddings are processed in your browser
The embedding step runs in your browser using Transformers.js. Keep the browser tab open until processing completes. The tab does not need to stay in the foreground.
Step 5: Complete¶
Your chatbot is ready! The wizard shows a summary of your configuration. Click the button to go to your agent configuration where you can fine-tune settings at any time.
Step 5: Setup complete — your chatbot is live!
