# Installation

Installing a Workchat bot on CSML Studio is very easy, as it only takes one click. However, it does require admin rights on your Workplace instance.

Go to **Channels** > **Connect a new Channel** > **Workplace Chat**.

If you are a Workplace admin, simply click on the button and follow the instructions. Otherwise, copy the URL just below and send it to a Workplace admin. They will be able to complete the installation flow autonomously, even if they do not have a CSML Studio account. After clicking on the button or link, you will be redirected to the app setup page on Workplace.

From there, you can configure its name, description and logo by clicking on **Customize**.

You can also set which groups will have access to the bot.

* If you want everyone to have access to this chatbot, leave the **All groups** box checked. 
* If you want to restrict access to the members of specific groups, check **Specific groups** instead, then select which groups are allowed to access the bot. Users that are not in one of the selected groups will not be able to search for or chat with the bot in Workchat.

Click on **Add to Workplace** and you are done!

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.csml.dev/studio/channels/workplace-chat/installation.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
