Hover on an Element

Trigger a proactive campaign by hovering over an element on a web page.

Available on:  Core | Advanced | Pro

Overview

Proactively initiate a conversation whenever someone hovers over an element on the website.

Using this strategically can help you increase order values with cross-sell and upsell, or make the experience better by proactively offering helpful educational flows in areas you know people typically experience confusion.

For example, if someone is hovering over a product, you can recommend accessories that would go with it, or if someone is hovering over the size guide, you can launch a “find my fit” flow to make the experience more engaging.

If the campaign got triggered already, simply open the page in a new tab.

How to set it up

Step 1

Follow Ada’s technical Embed documentation to learn how to add Ada to your website.

Attached is the code snippet you need to paste into the <head> tag.

⚠️ Be sure to replace <YOUR-BOT-HANDLE> with your own bot handle. Your bot handle is your bot’s unique domain name: https://yourbothandle.ada.support/.

  src="https://static.ada.support/embed2.js"
></script>

Step 2

Follow the instructions on the Advanced Proactive Campaigns page to create a web campaign.

Step 3

Use triggerCampaign to launch a campaign created via the Ada dashboard in step 2:

const trigger = document.getElementById('hoverable-text');

trigger.addEventListener('mouseenter', (e) => {
  window.adaEmbed.triggerCampaign('Hover_on_an_element', {
    ignoreStatus: false,
    ignoreFrequency: false,
  })
}, true);

Step 4

Create an HTML (or other) element with an ID like hoverable-text.

<p id="hoverable-text">Proactively initiate a conversation whenever someone hovers over an element on the website.</p>

Button Example

Here’s an example of what the code would look like for a button:
