### Determine Live or Test

Learn about the [different environments](broken://pages/ds48bIV74fY4NP5IdnRO) to decide where the widget should be created.

### Create New Widget

Clicking Create New Widget opens a modal where you name the new widget.

In the modal, add a recognizable name. This could be the name of a website where it will live or be tied to a specific giving campaign like Black History Month or Giving Tuesday. Something that will be clear to the rest of your team.

### Edit Widget

Once the widget is saved, Edit by clicking on the row or in the Actions column on the Donation Widget list.

# 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://docs.changeup.com/app/changeup-dms/widget-setup/create-a-widget.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_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.
