# Importing a Chatbot into Tiledesk Design Studio
Follow these steps to import a chatbot configuration file into Tiledesk.
#### **Step 1: Navigate to the Bots Section**
Log in to your Tiledesk dashboard and locate the navigation menu on the left-hand side. Click on the **Bots** section (3rd icon from the top) to manage your chatbot configurations.
#### **Step 2: Start the Import Process**
Look for the "Add from scratch" on the top right of the Bots section and click on it to initiate the import process.
#### **Step 3: Choose Import Option**
In the new screen, switch to the **Import** tab, which allows you to import chatbots from other Tiledesk projects.
#### **Step 4: Import from JSON**
Locate the **"Import chatbot from JSON"** feature. JSON files are used to transport and configure chatbot data.
#### **Step 5: Select JSON File**
Press the **"IMPORT CHATBOT FROM JSON"** button and select the appropriate JSON file from your computer to upload.
#### **Step 6: Finalize the Import**
Wait for Tiledesk to process the file. Once complete, you should see a confirmation message indicating a successful import.
#### **Step 7: Review Imported Chatbot**
Return to the Chatbots section to view and edit your newly imported chatbot to ensure all configurations are correct.
**Tips for a Successful Import:**
* Verify the JSON file is correctly formatted with all necessary chatbot configurations.
* Check for syntax issues or missing data if there are errors during the import.
* Test the chatbot to confirm it operates as expected post-import.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.
## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://guide.tiledesk.com/importing-a-chatbot-into-tiledesk-design-studio.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
