Neetochat JavaScript API

JavaScript API is an easy yet powerful way to integrate your website or application with the Neetochat platform. It exposes certain methods to a global object: Neetochat. Developers can use them to control the Neetochat widget programmatically.

For instance, if you need to hide or show the Neetochat window within your application via a button or link, you can do the following:

  1. Login using your admin account.
  2. Go to Chat -> Customize -> Options.
  3. By selecting the Enable hidden mode option you can make sure that Neetochat will not be shown on your website.
  4. You can open Neetochat via JavaScript code using the Neetochat.contextualHelp.openWidget() API.
  5. You can again hide it via JavaScript code using the Neetochat.contextualHelp.closeWidget() API.

The following methods are exposed via the global object: Neetochat.
