IBM's Watson Assistant has stopped responding

Just over a year ago I created a chatbot using IBM Watson Assistant. It is successfully interfacing with wordpress and facebook. it was working perfectly well in a web page too, but has now stopped outputting any text. I created the website integration by copying the code shown in the "preview link" page created by IBM when the bot is under development. That code includes a library file called "chat.0.0.4.js" and corresponding css. When the code runs now, the chatbot renders correctly, but when I look at the browser console I see at line 12990 in chat.0.0.4.js:

400 - {"error":"Invalid Request Body","errors":[{"message":"When source.type is not 'watson', source.id is required

Does anyone know how to fix this? I see that the integration code from the "preview link" is now totally different and I wonder if the mechanism I used a year ago is now depreciated?

Thanks.

I think you need to use the newer version, the script to integrate WA has changed and now looks like this:

<script>
  window.watsonAssistantChatOptions = {
      integrationID: 'YOUR_INTEGRATION_ID',
      region: 'YOUR_REGION', 
      serviceInstanceID: 'YOUR_SERVICE_INSTANCE',
      onLoad: function(instance) { 
        instance.updateUserID(L12345);
        instance.render(); 
        }
    };
  setTimeout(function(){
    const t=document.createElement('script');
    t.src="https://web-chat.global.assistant.watson.appdomain.cloud/loadWatsonAssistantChat.js";
    document.head.appendChild(t);
  });
</script>
