Is it possible to unpublish or disable a chatbot?

Hello everybody,

I'm working on plans to publish Power Virtual Agents to a website using the chatbot embed. However, I wanted to check as part of this, if it is possible to unpublish or disable the published chatbot for a period after it's been published without deleting the bot or disabling every individual topic to allow for maintenance or to be taken down to resolve issues with the bot

 

I haven't found anything online, or in the documentation to suggest you can disable the bot to allow for maintenance or for the bot to be down for a little while

 

Thanks in advance!

    There's no way to disable a bot once you've embedded it to your website. If you are concerned about the maintenance/changes going to the website before you're ready, do not publish the changes and test your changes in the test chat canvas in the PVA portal.
