Connect your first website

Add the live domain visitors use, then scan, install and preview the agent.

Connecting a website creates the workspace for that domain: knowledge scans, the agent, the chat widget, conversations and leads. Use the public URL visitors type in the browser — not an internal or temporary host — unless you are intentionally setting up staging.

Connect your site

  1. Sign in and open Websites, or continue from onboarding if you just created an account
  2. Choose Add website and enter a clear site name plus the full public URL (including https://)
  3. Confirm the domain matches the live site where the widget will load
  4. Complete any ownership or install checks shown in the workspace
  5. Open the new website overview — this is your home for scan, knowledge, agent and installation

After the site is connected

  1. Run a content scan so pages can become approved knowledge
  2. Publish the knowledge you want the agent to answer from
  3. Copy the install snippet from Installation and add it to your site
  4. Hard-refresh the live page and use Recheck installation in Amevia
  5. Preview the agent with real questions before you treat it as live

Domain tips

  • Prefer the canonical production domain (www or non-www — match what visitors actually use)
  • Paths like /shop are fine if that is the public site; avoid admin-only or login-walled URLs
  • One Amevia website connection maps to one public domain for scanning and widget checks

If something blocks you

  • Cannot add the domain — check spelling, https, and that the account can create websites on your plan
  • Ownership or install still pending — follow the workspace checklist, then open Add and verify a website
  • Scan or widget next — use Scan website content and Install with JavaScript
