-
On the Whatfix Guidance dashboard, click Content.
-
Click Beacons.
-
Hover your cursor over the required Beacon collection, and then click the Edit icon.
-
Click Launch live edit.
-
Once the Studio launches in your application, click + Add Beacon.
-
Select an element on the application where you want the Beacon to appear.
-
Enter the name of the Beacon.
The Beacon name is solely for your (creator's) reference and not visible to the end user.
- Enter the description for the Beacon Step action.
The Beacon description is visible to the end user when they hover their cursor over the Beacon.
-
In the CONFIGURATIONS tab, under the Disappear Beacon section, select the condition to stop displaying the Beacon.

- Change the tip Color using the color picker or enter the hex code in the text box.
- Customize the style, color, and size of the text of the Beacon Tooltip.

-
By default, Whatfix provides four types of icons for a Beacon, that is, Custom, Radial, Ripple, and Speckle.

There are two different positioning modes,
-
In the Basic Positioning mode, you can choose among the 8 available positions.
