# Deploy flow

The Deployment section in iX Hello Customer v2 enables you to view and manage the assignment of your validated flow to both voice and chat channels.

## Before You Begin

* Confirm that at least one conversational flow is valid and ready for deployment.&#x20;
* Deploy to voice channel: verify that there's a reserved phone number that is not yet assigned to a flow on the [phone numbers page.](https://docs.ixhello.com/ixhc2/deployments/phone-numbers)
* Deploy to chat channel: ensure that there's a configured [web chat widget](https://docs.ixhello.com/ixhc2/deployments/chat-widgets) appearance that matches your needs. Confirm the **domain names** where the widget will be hosted (for example, your company website or staging environment).

* Select the **Phone number** dropdown to open a list of available phone numbers. and choose one to assign to your flow. It can now be called.&#x20;
* Click the **unassign icon** to the right of the phone number to unassign it from this flow.&#x20;

## Assign chat widgets section

The assign chat widgets section displays all chat widgets currently assigned to the flow, if any. Each chat widget is displayed in a card displaying the chat widget name, unassign icon, chat widget script, copy and preview button.&#x20;

* Select the **Chat widget** dropdown to open a list of available chat widgets. and choose one to assign to your flow. **Copy** the `chat widget script` to embed it in on one of the allowed domains.&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
Verify that no `chat widgets scripts` are embedded before unassigning the chat widget from the flow.

The scripts don't work without the chat widget, assign the chat widget again to restore the `chat widget script`.
{% endhint %}

Select **preview** opens a new tab where you can view, and interact with, the fully functioning chat widget.   It reflects the end state of the chat widget as embedded in an external site.&#x20;
