Quick start

Get Evercom up and running in about 15 minutes. Follow these steps to set up your workspace, bring your team on board, and handle your first conversation.

1. Create or open your workspace

Each workspace is an isolated tenant with its own contacts, conversations, and settings. Start by creating a workspace or opening an existing one.

Your workspace profile holds the name, logo, and public widget code. Configure these in Settings → Workspace.

2. Invite your team

Evercom has three roles:

  • owner — broadest control over the workspace.
  • admin — manages most settings.
  • operator — handles conversations.

Invite teammates and manage their roles in Settings → Users and Settings → Invitations.

3. Install the website widget

Copy the install snippet from Settings → Widget and add it before the closing </body> tag on every page of your site:

<!-- Evercom widget -->
<script src="https://widget.evercom.app/a3f2b1c9.js" async></script>

Here a3f2b1c9 is the public widget code, which is unique per account.

4. (Optional) Connect an external channel

Connect Telegram, Instagram, VKontakte, or WhatsApp in Settings → Channels, so messages from those providers land in the same inbox as your widget conversations.

5. Send a test message and reply

  1. Open your site and click the chat button.
  2. Send a message through the widget.
  3. Reply from Conversations in the operator app.

Conversations have the statuses open, snoozed, and closed.
