 Our work on supporting Botpress is in active development.
 
+## How to setup Rocket.Chat livechat + botpress 
+
+The following instructions are to have rocket.chat livechat work with 2 botpress bots in a live-agent role. There is some good work done on [botpress-channel-rocketchat](https://github.com/RocketChat/botpress-channel-rocketchat). This setup includes setting up Rocket.Chat livechat and botpress with botpress-channel-rocketchat.
+
+*Required components - rocket.chat 0.69, botpress 10.35, botpress-channel-rocketchat 0.11
+
+----
+## Setup Rocket.Chat
+
+### Add Bot users
+On the rocket.chat server, add a bot user  
+Administration-> Users -> +  
+```
+    name: bot one 
+    username: bot1 <<or preferred>> 
+    password: bot1 <<or preferred>> 
+
+```  
+Turn on *Verified*  
+Turn off *Require password change*  
+Add roles: *live-agent, bot*  
+*Save*
+
+Repeat above for bot2 with username: bot2, password: bot2
+
+### Enable livechat
+#### Administration->Livechat-> Livechat enabled = True; Save changes  
+#### Livechat->User Management  
+
+add livechat agents by "search by username" and add bot1 and bot2
+#### Livechat->Departments
+Add New Department
+```
+    Name: support, Enabled: Yes, Available agents:bot1, bot2 and save
+````
+
+On the rocket.chat home page, enable **livechat**
+
+----
+## Install Botpress
+
+Install botpress  
+`npm install -g botpress`  
+`botpress --version`  
+10.35.0  
+
+----
+
+## Setup Bots
+
+Setup a directory for bot
+
+```
+    mkdir bot1
+    cd bot1
+```
+
+Generate a new bot  
+
+`botpress init`
+
+
+Install botpress-channel-rocketchat  
+
+`npm install botpress-channel-rocketchat --save`  
+
+Install bot dependencies by running npm install ...  
+
+`npm install`  
+
+Update botfile port to 3001 ( or a port that is available)  
+edit botfile.js and change port from 3000 to 3001  
++const port = process.env.BOTPRESS_PORT || process.env.PORT || **3001**  
+
+`botpress start`  
+
+(bot may start with errors. Kill the bot and follow the below instructions)  
+
+`cd config`  
+ check if `channel-rocketchat.json` exists. If not make a file or update the file with below entries  
+```
+{
+    "ROCKETCHAT_USER": "bot1" //"<<botname>>",
+    "ROCKETCHAT_PASSWORD":"bot2" // "<<botpassword>>",
+    "ROCKETCHAT_URL": "<<rocket.chat host url>>",
+    "ROCKETCHAT_USE_SSL": "false",
+    "ROCKETCHAT_ROOM": "GENERAL",
+    "scope": ""
+}
+```  
+
+Start the bot again  
+
+`botpress start`  
+
+### Setting up bot2  
+```
+    e.g
+    /bot1
+    /bot2
+
+mkdir bot2
+cd bot2
+```  
+Repeat the bot setup steps for bot2, with the below changes  
+
+change botfile.js port to **3002**  
+change `config/channel-rocketchat.json`  
+```
+    ROCKETCHAT_USER = "bot2"  
+    ROCKETCHAT_PASSWORD = "bot2"  
+
+```  
+## Test livechat  
+yourserver:port/livechat  
+
+----
+## Troubleshooting  
+
+If there is an error in starting the bot, such as port address in use, remove the `.data` folder in the bot directory  
+ `rm -rf .data` (from the bot folder)  
+

+# Using Bots for Livechat
+
+Bot users can serve as livechat agents in a Rocket.Chat instance, allowing you
+to respond quickly to basic enquiries and perform handover to a human agent
+when they're required and available.
+
+Before continuing, you should read [Creating Bot Users](../creating-bot-users)
+and [Configure Bot Environment](../configure-bot-environment), because you'll
+need to do both to prepare the account and bot configuration to be used for
+livechat.
+
+Also ensure livechat is enabled, following the instructions in the
+[Administrator guide to Livechat](../../administrator-guides/livechat/) to
+enable Livechat, create a department and assign your bot account/s as agents.
+
+The only additional setup required is that the bot is given the additional role
+of `livechat-agent` and the environment variable `RESPOND_TO_LIVECHAT=true`.
+
+## Contribute to the Docs
+
+If you've developed bot solutions for livechat support and have more details to
+add, please submit a PR with the instructions using the link below.
