## Setting Up for Installation

{% hint style="info" %}
In order to install a web chat widget on Shopify, you will need the following:\
\- Access to your [Shopify account](https://accounts.shopify.com/store-login)\
\- A code snippet for your web chat widget
{% endhint %}

If you don't have a code snippet already, you will generate one when creating a ISMessenger [Website Chat Widget](/ismessenger/messaging-channels/website-chat-widget.md) or using the [Facebook Chat Plugin](/ismessenger/messaging-channels/facebook-messenger/facebook-chat-plugin.md) for [Facebook Messenger](/ismessenger/messaging-channels/facebook-messenger.md).

{% hint style="info" %}
If you have the channels already connected on the ISMessenger platform and you need to retrieve the generated code snippet, navigate to the [Manage Channels](/ismessenger/workspace-setting/channels.md) section under [Settings](broken://pages/-McXF_amFHMlPNDm9mFg). Press the respective blue **Edit** button to find the generated script.
{% endhint %}
