ASAP (Embedded Widget)

ASAP is Zoho Desk's embedded support widget that delivers Help Centre search, ticket submission, and live chat within your website or application.

ASAP is Zoho Desk’s embeddable support widget that brings Help Centre articles, community forums, ticket submission, and live chat directly into your website or application. Users get help without leaving the page they are on.

What ASAP Provides

The ASAP widget surfaces a search bar for knowledge base articles, a link to community discussions, a ticket submission form, and access to live chat if enabled. All components are available without navigating away from the current page, reducing friction in the support experience.

Installing ASAP

ASAP is installed by adding a JavaScript snippet to your website or application. Configuration is done in Zoho Desk settings, where you choose which Help Centre components to display and customise the widget’s appearance and position.

Answer Bot Integration

The ASAP widget can include Zia’s Answer Bot, which suggests relevant articles before a customer submits a ticket. If the suggested articles resolve the question, the ticket is never created. This makes ASAP a key tool for ticket deflection within the product experience.

Example: A SaaS company embeds the ASAP widget in their application dashboard. When users click the help icon, the widget shows relevant knowledge base articles based on the page they are on. For billing-related pages, billing articles appear first, resolving 28% of queries before a ticket is submitted.
