Add a New Flow and Node in a WhatsApp Bot

 

Definition

A Flow in a WhatsApp bot is a structured conversation path that guides users through different interactions. Each Node within a flow represents a specific action, such as sending a message, collecting user input, or displaying interactive options.

Steps to Add a New Flow and Node

1. Access the Bot Builder

  • Log in to Geta.ai.

  • Navigate to the Bot Builder module.

2. Open Your WhatsApp Bot

  • Click on Create or Manage your WhatsApp bot.

3. Add a New Flow

  • In the Flow Builder, click on the "New Flow" button (located at the top-left).

  • Enter the Flow Name and save it.

4. Add a New Node

  • In the Flow Builder, click on the "+" (plus) icon to create a new node.

  • Select the Node Type, such as:
    ✅ Message – Sends a simple text response to the user.
    ✅ Interactive Message – Allows users to select quick reply buttons.
    ✅ Interactive Message List – Provides a structured list for users to choose from.
    ✅ Number – Collects numeric input (e.g., phone number, OTP).
    ✅ Text Field – Captures text-based responses from users.
    ✅ Delay – Adds a delay (in seconds) before the next node executes, creating a natural pause or pacing in the conversation flow.
    ✅ Share Location – Enables users to share their current location or manually select a location through location-sharing option, allowing the bot to capture and use this data for further actions or routing.

5. Save and Connect Nodes

  • After adding a node, connect it to the previous or next node to create a structured conversation.

  • Multiple nodes can be added to different flows to build a complete chatbot experience.
