Install Embent on Webflow

Add the snippet through Webflow's Custom code panel — no app, no Designer embed element to place.

Before you start

A paid Site plan on the site you're installing to — or a Core, Growth, Agency, or Freelancer Workspace plan. The free Starter Site plan can't save custom code.
Custom code only takes effect after you publish. Saving it in the Designer alone doesn't put it on your live site.

Steps

Copy your embed snippet

In your Embent dashboard, open your bot's Overview and copy the embed snippet. It looks like this:

<script src="https://api.embent.com/widget.js" data-bot="YOUR_BOT_ID" async></script>

Open Site settings → Custom code

In the Designer, open Site settings and click the Custom code tab in the left sidebar.

Paste it into Footer Code and publish

Paste the snippet into the Footer Code field, which Webflow loads on every page just before the closing body tag. Save, then publish your site — custom code changes only go live after a publish.

Check it worked

Publish your site, then reload it in a new browser tab: the chat bubble appears in the corner. Ask it a question about your own pages and it should answer with a citation.

If it doesn't work

Tried it and the widget isn't showing? These fix nearly every case.

I added the embed code but the widget doesn't appear — no chat bubble, no launcher, nothing shows up on my siteFour checks solve almost every "widget not showing" case. First, open your live site and view the page source (right-click → View Page Source) and search for "embent" — if the script is not there, the code was not saved to a published page. Second, make sure the data-bot ID in your snippet matches the one shown in your dashboard under Settings. Third, clear your site's page cache and any CDN cache — a cached page keeps serving the old version without the widget. Fourth, check the bot is not paused in the dashboard: a paused bot deliberately shows nothing to visitors.

Common questions

I'm on the free Starter plan and can't save my custom code.Custom code requires a paid Site plan, or a Core, Growth, Agency, or Freelancer Workspace plan. Upgrade the site's plan (or its Workspace's plan) to enable it.

I saved the snippet but the widget still isn't showing.Custom code only runs on your published site, not in the Designer or preview. Publish the site after saving, then reload the live URL.

Will this slow my site down?No. The script loads async and the widget is under 50KB gzipped with no framework of its own, so it never blocks your page render.
