The Information block is used to send a message to the client, where the bot provides some information and moves on to the next block without waiting for the client to respond. This is one of the two main blocks when creating a script.
Only one arrow can exit from the block.
To access the block properties, click on the block. A properties panel will open on the right.
| Property | Description | ||
|---|---|---|---|
¶ Common |
|||
¶ General |
|||
| Label | The name of the block, which is displayed in the script editor but is not used in the dialogue with the client. It is used for convenience when creating a script. | ||
| Marker | Block designation, arbitrary text. It can be used in analytics reports as a marker of block passage - it can be used to track which blocks the robot has passed. | ||
| Message | The message that will be voiced or sent by the bot after the transition to the block. The text of the message is displayed in the block in the script editor, if the Label is not specified, and is also displayed as a popup hint when hovering over the block. | ||
| Delay | The period of time after which a message will be sent after going to a block. The delay before sending can be used to emulate typing a message, giving the impression that the communication is with a real person. It is set in seconds.
|
||
| Maximum cycles | The maximum number of times a robot can pass through a cycle. A cycle is defined as the user hitting a particular block repeatedly. The maximum number of cycles is 100. | ||
| Send immediately |
Allows messages to be sent before the entire chain between blocks requiring user response is complete. For example, the script contains a chain of a Question block, 3 Information blocks, a Request block, 2 more Information blocks and one more Question block. If you check the Send immediately box on the third block in this chain (before the Request), then after the client responds to the first Question block, 3 messages will be sent, then the request will be sent and the remaining 3 (2 from the Information block and 1 from the Question block) will be sent. Otherwise, messages will be sent only after the entire chain has been completed. |
||
| Files |
Allows you to add files to be attached to the bot message. Files are added by clicking the upload button and selecting a file on your computer, or by dragging a file from your computer to the upload area. The maximum size of a file is 15 MB.
