# Chatbot - Starting Support with Another WhatsApp Account

#### We can create a chatbot with service menus that direct the start of the conversation to another WhatsApp number connected to your instance. This strategy is used together with the Automation Flow to optimize service.

Follow the steps below to create and configure your chatbot:

1. **Create the Chatbot:**

* Go to the chatbot via “Find Services”. Or just type the name, and the function appears.
* To create, click “+ New”.

2. **Configure and Create:**

* **Enter a Title:** Give a descriptive name to your chatbot
* **Enter a Description:** Describe in detail the content and functionality of the chatbot.
* **Configure a Trigger:** At this step, you can define triggers, conditions, operating hours, startup settings and other additional options. These definitions will ensure that your chatbot operates efficiently and according to the desired settings.
* **Click** on “Open Builder” to create the bot with its actions and conditions.
* **Allow leads to talk to the bot multiple times?:** It depends on your strategy.\
  If set to “YES”, it will go through the bot every time the configured trigger is activated.
* **Automatically unarchive the lead when starting the chatbot?:** If the answer is yes, the chatbot will unarchive the Leads. However, note: the Lead will only be unarchived if the instance is within the limit allowed by the plan.
