# Configure Content Slots and Payment Methods

### Configure Content Slots

To enable **payment processing** and **layout customization**, you must import payment methods and content slots.

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

#### Navigate to Import & Export

Navigate to **Merchant Tools → Online Marketing → Import & Export**
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Upload Content Slots File

* Upload the **content slots file** from the `/Sites` directory of the **ESW package**.

**Content slots** define configurable areas in the storefront that can display promotional content, or other dynamic elements.

Importing content slots ensures ESW marketing and UI components are available for storefront customization.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://developer.esw.com/shopify/salesforce-commerce-cloud/getting-started-guide/configure-content-slots-and-payment-methods.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
