Apty Client can be installed on a Salesforce Community instance by adding a code snippet to the head markup of all the instance pages. This method eliminates the need of a browser extension for the end user to leverage the features of Apty Assist and guarantees independence of the browser to the end user. This procedure is described in the Step 1 of the document.
