Triggers​

We will need these triggers

  • Default - will be executed once chat starts
  • Collect order name - collects order number
  • Order number collected - Informs a visitor that order number was collected
  • Validation failure - Informs about validation failure
  • Multiple validation failure - Informs about second attempt validation failure and terminates information collecting process.

Default​

Just writes welcome message and displays quick reply buttons.

Collect order name​

Main process where all information collecting happens. Here we expect number format. It also has selected triggers on success and validation failure.

Order number collected​

Informs that order number was collected and writes a number.

Validation failure​

Here we do few tricks.

  • Here we use Restrict execution more than defined times and we allow one time to proceed further.
  • Text message is the message send on very first validation error.

Multiple validation failure​

  • We send a text message that it was second attempt to submit information.
  • We remove any previous process means information collecting process is terminated.
