Overview
Angle Deep Links let you instantly open the AI assistant with a pre-filled question or command - directly from any channel. They help you guide shoppers into specific conversations, improve engagement, and create more personalized shopping experiences.
What Is a Deep Link?
A deep link is a special URL that launches your store’s Angle assistant and sends an initial message automatically.
Example:
<https://demo.askangle.com/#askai:hello>
When someone opens this link, Angle immediately starts a chat with the message “hello.”
