By injecting the Jimo script on the fly, the extension helps you work in context and see how your tours, surveys, banners, and other experiences will look to your users.
In-Context Editing: Build and refine experiences right where they’ll appear, instead of relying solely on the standalone builder’s abstract preview.
No Full Installation Required (Yet): The extension lets you get started before your tech team completes the full Jimo integration. Design and preview now, publish later.
Smooth Onboarding: By having a working preview environment, product managers, marketers, and designers can start experimenting with Jimo’s capabilities immediately.
If you don’t install the Jimo Chrome Extension, your preview capabilities will be limited to the standalone builder’s simplified environment.
Reduced Preview Features: You won’t be able to inject Jimo dynamically on any webpage, meaning you’ll have a more abstract preview and less context for element targeting or advanced UI interactions.
Install the Extension: Get the Jimo Chrome Extension from the Chrome Web Store.
Start Building Immediately: Once installed, the extension works quietly in the background. Navigate to your Jimo’s builder, and start creating experiences in-app on any page as if the snippet were already in place.
Finalize Later: When your developers have finished the complete implementation, switch seamlessly from drafting and previewing to publishing experiences live to your users.
No Publishing: Even with the extension, you cannot publish experiences on a site that doesn’t have the Jimo snippet installed. Your work will remain in draft form until the snippet is deployed.
