Flex Webchats is an endpoint that simplifies orchestrating a Conversation for a guest user: It creates a conversation, adds a randomly generated user identity to this conversation, and configures the Conversation based on the Address SID you provide. To get started with this endpoint, please refer to the web chat React-based demo app.
Webchat 3.0 (currently in Public Beta) provides a simple, secure way to add a Twilio-hosted chat widget to your website. Before deciding to use the Webchat React App, you may want to consider using Webchat 3.0. For a comparison between these apps, see Migrate to Webchat 3.0.
