Editing nodes within your chatbot's flow is essential to maintaining a dynamic and effective conversation.
In this section, you'll learn how to modify individual nodes to better suit your needs. This includes editing content, connecting, deleting irrelevant nodes, and cloning existing nodes for greater efficiency.
To edit your node, click on the node you wish to edit and then click on the 'pencil' icon.
A form will appear on your screen, enter the required settings and click 'Done'.
The conversation flow serves as a path that leads the user step by step through the chat. Nodes should be logically connected, by creating reasonable sequences within the dialogue, allowing the bot to respond accurately to the user's input.
To connect the nodes simply click on this point and select the appropriate node to continue the conversation.
By clicking on the node and pressing '+', you will see the available options for what can come before and after each type of node. For example, after a question node, you can add and attach a message node.
Note: that certain node types can only match and connect to certain other node types.
To delete the link between two nodes, click on the starting point of the node from which you want to remove the connection until the line between them is highlighted.
Then press the backspace button in your keyboard and the link between the two nodes will be removed.
Cloning a node greatly eases the process of creating copies for reuse within the stream. It saves time and effort by removing the need to recreate similar content from scratch.
To clone a node in your flowgraph, simply click on the node you wish to copy and click on the ‘paper’ icon.
Adding nodes is a crucial aspect of the conversation with chatbots, as it helps in creating a smooth and structured flow of dialogue.
To add a node, click on the node and using the "+" button,end-users can see the available options for connecting nodes before and after each type of node. For instance, a question node can be followed by an option node to continue the flow.
Nodes represent actions or responses within the conversation, such as asking questions or providing information.
Deleting a node allows you to remove irrelevant or unnecessary nodes from the flow.
This helps to simplify the discussion and ensure clarity for users. Deleting nodes can clean up the flow diagram, making it easier to manage and navigate.
To delete a node, simply click on the node you wish to remove and then click on the ‘trash can’ icon.
