Click the Add Item button to add up to six channels for your website. As you add each
item, enter details:
- Add a menu item name, which isn’t visible to customers.
- Select a channel type: Call, SMS, Apple Messages for Business, Enhanced Web Chat, Facebook, WhatsApp, or Web URL.
- Provide the phone number, URL, or active messaging channel to link the menu item to. If you have international customers, use the + symbol with a country code for your number when adding a phone channel.
- Optionally, add a custom icon.
- Under Advanced Settings, if you're using the Channel Menu Reordering API, deselect Show this menu item. Otherwise, leave it selected.
- Optionally, hide the menu item for specific user operating systems. For example, hide Enhanced Web Chat for the mobile platform to encourage the use of mobile-friendly channels such as WhatsApp or SMS.

- Click Save when all your channels have been added to the menu.
You can edit your menu items at any time.
