Preview
You can preview your configuration before publishing and integrating it. Therefore you will need to enable the checkbox "Use Start Widget" in the preview and to choose the respective theme.
Integration
Enable the Start Widget as can be seen in the following picture. This will add the necessary parameter to the integration URL ("&xcStartWidget").
Please insert the integration code with the Start Widget parameter into your website at the position, where you want to display the Start Widget and the corresponding Product Guide.
Please note, that the Product Guide needs to be published first, before you can integrate it.
