# How to Configure a Bot?

Configuring a bot allows you to change parameters of a specific bot, such as connected communication channels, webhooks, languages, and other parameters.

> **Note:** In the new interface, the main menu item [Process Library](/en/scenariobuilder/how-to/use-process-library.html) is available — bot settings open via the card (click the name or go to `/process_library/:id`).

## When You'll Need This

- You need to connect a new communication channel to the bot (Telegram, Viber, WhatsApp, etc.).
- You need to configure webhooks for integration with external systems.
- You need to add support for new languages for the bot.
- You need to change other bot parameters.

## What's Important to Know

- **Communication channels** — different messengers and platforms through which the bot can communicate with clients.
- **Two places to configure channels** — channels can be connected **here (bot settings)** or **in the Scenario Builder Start node** ("Channels" trigger). Both options change the same configuration.
- **Webhooks** — URL addresses for receiving events from communication channels.
- **Languages** — languages supported by the bot for multilingual communication.

## Before You Start

- [x] You are logged in with administrator rights.
- [x] You have permission to edit bots (`canSave`).
- [x] You have a bot that needs to be configured.

## Step-by-Step Instructions

### 1. Open Bot Settings

1. Go to the bots list: **Settings → Bots** (`/settings-page/bots`) or **Process Library** from the main menu (`/process_library`).
2. Find the required bot in the table or on the card.
3. Click the **"Settings"** button (gear icon), click the name, or go to `/settings-page/bot-settings/:id` or `/process_library/:id`.

### 2. Configure Communication Channels

1. In the **"Channels"** section, find the list of available channels.
2. For each channel:
   - Enable/disable the channel via toggle.
   - Configure channel parameters (tokens, API keys, etc.).
   - Copy the webhook URL for connecting the channel.

### 3. Configure Webhooks

1. In the **"Webhooks"** or **"Hooks"** section, find webhook URLs for each channel.
2. Copy the webhook URL and configure it in the corresponding messenger or platform.
3. Verify channel connection.

### 4. Configure Languages

1. In the **"Languages"** section, find the list of available languages.
2. Enable/disable languages supported by the bot.
3. Set the default language.

### 5. Configure Other Parameters

1. Review other available bot configuration parameters.
2. Configure them according to your needs.

### 6. Save Settings

1. Verify all changes made.
2. Click the **"Save"** or **"Save Changes"** button.
3. Wait for a message about successful saving.

## What Happens Next

Settings are applied to the bot:
- Connected communication channels become available for the bot.
- Webhooks are configured and ready to receive events.
- Languages are applied to bot scenarios.

## How to Verify Everything Worked

- Check that communication channels are connected and working.
- Check that webhooks receive events from channels.
- Check that languages are applied to bot scenarios.
