Really simple question to help a designer in making his first bot

(Thomas Fekenne) #1

Hello everyone,

I’m Thomas, designer trying the bot hype !

I try to get the name of a user with bot in FB messenger.
I try to say hello + ‘name’ after asking the user what is his name.

here is my workflow :

  • Ask the question
  • The user answser
  • I try to catch the name with a get attribute
  • The bot says : “nice to meet you + name” ( I don’t know how to handle that )

I’m a bit lost here, could you please help me with this ?

Thanks a lot !

Hi Thomas,

You would extract the name from the Bot’s Parsed Answer output. You can press our little icon on the right side of input fields to get to the list of available outputs

What you can do though is store the user’s name with their response path in our Attributes so that you can use them again later in any of your flows.
