Now, create a container and configure the search bar component.

addInkeep.js

// Function for adding a script to the page
const addScript = (src, type = "module", defer = true) => {
  const script = document.createElement("script");
  script.src = src;
  script.type = type;
  script.defer = defer;
  document.body.appendChild(script);
  return script;
};
 
// Function for customizing the widget configuration
const inkeepConfig = (targetElement) => ({
  componentType: "SearchBar",
  targetElement,
  properties: {
    baseSettings: {
      apiKey: "INKEEP_API_KEY", // required
      integrationId: "INKEEP_INTEGRATION_ID", // required
      organizationId: "INKEEP_ORGANIZATION_ID", // required
      primaryBrandColor: "#26D6FF", // your brand color, widget color scheme is derived from this
      organizationDisplayName: "Inkeep",
      // ...optional settings
      theme: {
        // stylesheetUrls: ['/path/to/stylesheets'], // optional
        // ...optional settings
      },
    },
    modalSettings: {
      // optional settings
    },
    searchSettings: {
      // optional settings
    },
    aiChatSettings: {
      // optional settings
      botAvatarSrcUrl: "/img/logo.svg", // use your own bot avatar
      quickQuestions: [
        "Example question 1?",
        "Example question 2?",
        "Example question 3?",
      ],
    },
  },
});
 
// Function for initializating the widget
const addInkeepWidget = () => {
  const search = document.getElementById("search")?.parentNode;
 
  if (!search) return;
 
  search.style.height = "auto";
  search.innerHTML = "";
 
  Inkeep().embed(inkeepConfig(search));
 
  const observer = new MutationObserver((mutationsList, observer) => {
    const search = document.getElementById("search")?.parentNode;
 
    if (!search) return;
 
    const inkeepPortals = document.getElementsByTagName("inkeep-portal");
 
    Array.from(inkeepPortals)?.forEach((inkeepPortal) => {
      inkeepPortal.remove();
    });
 
    search.innerHTML = "";
    search.style.height = "auto";
 
    inkeepConfig(search).targetElement = search;
    
    // Embed the widget using the `Inkeep.embed()` function.
    Inkeep().embed(inkeepConfig(search));
  });
 
  observer.observe(document.head, { childList: true });
};
 
// Adding the script and initializing the widget
const inkeepWidgetScript = document.createElement("script");
inkeepWidgetScript.defer = true;
inkeepWidgetScript.innerHTML = addInkeepWidget.toString();
 
document.body.appendChild(inkeepWidgetScript);
 
const embedScript = addScript(
  "https://unpkg.com/@inkeep/uikit-js@0.3.19/dist/embed.js"
);
 
embedScript.addEventListener("load", addInkeepWidget);
