Bot Connect

Bring your own chatbot. You keep the backend; OneMango is the front end — in Ask AI, a pop-up, a full-page tab, or a Home widget.

Overview

Register a customer-controlled chatbot and surface it inside OneMango without rebuilding it. Embed it by URL (iframe) or connect it by authenticated API and let OneMango proxy questions and pass answers back (streamed in Ask AI). Choose where it appears — routed inside the unified Ask AI box, as a pop-up bubble on desktop pages, a full-page tab, or a Home dashboard widget — as a setting, not a separate build. Ask AI routing sends the right questions to the right assistant (yours for its domain, native agents for everything else), picking among several registered bots by their keywords. API endpoint and keys live encrypted in Integrations, never exposed to app code, with optional HMAC request signing.

Use cases

In-house job-aid bot
Connect your internally-built parts/procedure assistant by API so frontline employees ask it from the same box they use for HR and scheduling.
Proprietary domain assistant
Connect a bot trained on systems we don't integrate with, and let Ask AI route the relevant questions to it.
Pop-up help bubble
Turn on the floating pop-up so a support or IT bot is one click away on desktop pages, without a separate portal.
Monitored production bot
Register a business-critical assistant and rely on health monitoring to alert admins when its API key expires or its endpoint breaks — checked every 15 minutes, once employees' questions start failing.

FAQ

Your backend owns the bot's logic and data. In iframe mode we only render your URL, so nothing passes through OneMango. In API mode we proxy each question and keep a log of the question and the answer, for Analytics and health alerts.

An authenticated HTTPS endpoint that accepts a JSON question and returns a JSON answer (streamed via Server-Sent Events if you want incremental delivery). Endpoint and keys are stored encrypted in Integrations, and private-network addresses are blocked.

Yes. Register as many as you like; Ask AI picks between them by the keywords you assign (topics help only when OneMango's own agents are unsure).

Yes. Run the one-click connection test on the Assistants page when you register the bot to confirm the endpoint answers, then rely on usage analytics (share answered, response time) and automatic health monitoring — admins are alerted when an assistant's questions start failing (checked every 15 minutes).

Anywhere you choose — inside the unified Ask AI box (routed by keyword), as a floating pop-up bubble on desktop pages (one assistant at a time), as a full-page tab in the app rail, as a Home dashboard widget, or via a shareable deep link. Each placement is a setting, not a rebuild.

Assistant management is admin-only, and you can limit Bot Connect — all of its assistants — to specific groups. Endpoints and keys are stored encrypted in Integrations, never exposed to app code, and private-network addresses are blocked.

Yes. The in-app chat panel sends the recent conversation turns with each question so an API-backed bot can answer follow-ups in context, and it renders markdown answers cleanly.
