Widget opens but responses do not load

Fix cases where the widget opens but no responses appear.

What you will learn

  • How to confirm the chat API is reachable
  • How to identify domain or session issues
  • What to send to support if needed

Check network requests

  • Open DevTools > Network and look for /api/messages requests

  • Confirm requests return 200 responses

  • Look for 401, 403, or 500 errors

Validate business mapping

If the widget cannot resolve a business ID, it will not send messages. Confirm the business domain is correct.

Retry with a fresh session

Clear site storage or test in an incognito window to regenerate a session ID.

Expected outcome

  • Messages send and responses stream in the widget.

Common issues

  • Backend API errors or missing configuration.
  • Business domain mapping returns the fallback profile.
