#### Setting Up for Installation <a href="#setting_up_for_installation" id="setting_up_for_installation"></a>

In order to install a web chat widget on Squarespace, you will need the following:

* Access to your [Squarespace account](https://login.squarespace.com/).
* A code snippet for your web chat widget.

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

If you have the channels already connected on the IS-Messenger platform and you need to retrieve the generated code snippet, follow the [instructions here](https://docs.is-messenger.com/ismessenger/messaging-channels/website-chat-widget).
