Adalo Chatbot

Adalo has no native chatbot component, so a chatbot in an Adalo app is a hosted chat page embedded in a WebView. Once you accept that shape, the work is mostly about what the bot knows and how it behaves.

What a chatbot needs that Adalo does not provide

A conversation needs message history, a model to generate replies, streaming so answers appear progressively, and storage for logs. None of that exists inside Adalo collections and actions, which is why the interface is hosted and embedded.

The build flow

With the AI Chatbots tool the sequence is short:

  • Create the chatbot and name it.
  • Add knowledge, text or documents it should answer from.
  • Set behaviour: tone, scope, and what it should decline.
  • Customise appearance so it matches your app.
  • Test the conversation before shipping it.
  • Copy the chatbot URL into an Adalo WebView component.

Common uses in Adalo apps

In-app support that answers from your own help content, onboarding that walks a new user through setup, and product Q&A on a catalogue are the three that come up most often.
