the chat widgets have the structure for anonymous chat, but the backend doesn't currently support it. Here's how to request this feature:
Current Situation:
Your agent configs have "allow_anonymous": true
But base44.agents.createConversation() requires authentication
So anonymous users see a static welcome message instead of live chat
To Request Anonymous Chat:
Use the feedback button in the base44 dashboard sidebar (mentioned in the internal instructions)
Or contact the base44 team directly at their support channel
Feature Request Details you should include:
Feature Request: Anonymous Agent Conversations Current behavior: - Agents have "allow_anonymous": true in config - But createConversation() requires authenticated user - Anonymous users can't actually chat Requested behavior: - Allow base44.agents.createConversation() to work without authentication when agent has "allow_anonymous": true - Generate temporary anonymous session IDs for tracking - Let anonymous users chat before signup (great for lead generation!) Use case: - Marketing/sales chatbots on public pages - Let prospects ask questions before committing to signup - Capture email during conversation if interested Agents affected: - signup_assistant - about_assistant - services_assistant Why This Would Be Valuable:
Lowers barrier to engagement (no signup required to ask questions)
Better lead generation (capture interest during natural conversation)
Improves conversion (answer objections before asking for signup)
The base44 team would need to implement backend support for anonymous conversation sessions. Until then, your current approach (showing static welcome message) is the best alternative.
Please authenticate to join the conversation.
