External Services
This plugin connects to the Botino service to load and display your AI chatbot widget.
Botino Widget API (api.botinoai.ir)
- What it is: The Botino chatbot platform. This plugin embeds the Botino chat widget on your site by communicating with Botino’s servers.
- What data is sent and when:
- On every page load where the chatbot is active, the plugin fetches widget configuration from
https://api.botinoai.ir/api/v1/widget/embed-bootstrap?chatbotId=<your-chatbot-id>. Only the chatbot ID is sent; no visitor data is included in this server-side request. - The Botino loader script (
loader.js) is then injected into the page. That script communicates with Botino’s servers to render the chat widget and handle conversations. If the “Pass logged-in user identity” option is enabled, a signed HMAC-SHA256 hash of the logged-in WordPress user’s ID, email, and display name is passed to the widget so Botino can personalise the conversation.
