# Show checklist manually

To manually show the checklist, add the following code. Keep in mind that if no user is identified, the checklist will not be shown.

```javascript
window.Alvis("show_checklist");
```

If you'd like to show a button that triggers the checklist popup, you can add the onclick attribute to the button.

```html
<button onclick='window.Alvis("show_checklist");'>
  Onboard Me
</button>
```

You can also manually show a different checklist, but you have to make sure the targeting conditions are met if there is any.

```javascript
window.Alvis("show_checklist", "{{CHECKLIST_ID}}");
```

Here is how to hide the current checklist.

```javascript
window.Alvis("hide_checklist");
```

To dismiss the current checklist, this will also hide the launcher all together.

```javascript
window.Alvis("dismiss_checklist");
```
