Variables can also be set by passing them as URL Parameters or Embed Parameters.

1. Passing Variables as URL Parameters

If the URL of your bot is “https://botId.hybrid.chat” and you have to pass a variable name whose value is somename, then you can pass URL parameters as

https://botId.hybrid.chat/chat.html?name=somecoolname

If parameters are more than one, then simply append them with an &.

https://botId.hybrid.chat/chat.html?name=somecoolname&age=22

2. Passing Variables as Embed Parameters

Suppose you have embed code for your bot as follows

<div id="embed">
<script src='https://app.hybrid.chat/scripts/welcome.js'>
</script>
<script>
welcome('botId' , 'hybrid.chat', {"loadHistory": false});
</script>
</div>

Then simply pass the parameters as an object with the following structure

"vars": {
"name": "somecoolname",
"age": "22"
}

For instance

<div id="embed">
<script src='https://app.hybrid.chat/scripts/welcome.js'>
</script>
<script>
welcome('botId' , 'hybrid.chat', {"loadHistory": false,
"vars": {"name": "somecoolname", "age": "22"}});
</script>
</div>
