I’m using the Flowise embedded chatbot on my website and really appreciate how easy it is to integrate. However, I’ve noticed that the generated chat buttons currently offer little to no accessibility customization. Specifically, it is not possible to set important attributes such as role, title, or manage focus behavior for the button.
For accessibility compliance (e.g. WCAG), it’s essential that interactive elements like the chat button:
Provide a meaningful title attribute (e.g., “Open chatbot”)
Allow setting or overriding the role attribute (e.g., role="button")
Are fully keyboard accessible and clearly focusable
Currently, these options are missing in the widget configuration. As a result, accessibility audits flag the buttons as problematic, and it’s hard to provide an inclusive user experience without manually injecting custom JavaScript, which is not ideal.
Request:
Could you please consider adding configuration options to set these accessibility attributes directly when embedding the widget? This would make the Flowise chatbot much more usable and compliant for all users.
