Article Summary

You can customize a Beacon and the text that appears with it to suit the rest of your application.

You can customize a Beacon in two places:

  • Account level
  • Beacon level

Each Whatfix Beacon can have its unique properties — Beacon style and Beacon color, different from the account level configurations.
For example, all the Beacons in your account can be Radial styled, but you can customize one Beacon to be Custom styled when you want to focus on a new update.

The account level configuration for Beacons is available by default. To enable Beacon level configuration, contact support@whatfix.com.
