        ```html
        <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/biel-search/dist/biel-search/biel-search.css">
        <script type="module" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/biel-search/dist/biel-search/biel-search.esm.js"></script>
        ```

4. Add the chatbot widget in the Footer Code section:

    * Scroll down to the **Footer Code** field.
    * Paste the following snippet:

        ```html
        <biel-button project="<YOUR_PROJECT_ID>" header-title="Biel.ai chatbot" button-position="bottom-right" modal-position="bottom-right" button-style="dark">
                Ask AI
        </biel-button>
        ```

        Replace `<YOUR_PROJECT_ID>` with your project's ID from the [Biel.ai dashboard](https://docs.biel.ai/quickstart.md#2-create-a-project).
