Branching and looping with quick responses

A quick yet powerful way to set up branching and looping for common use cases.

The easiest way to get started with quick responses is by using one of our pre-created prompt templates.

What To Do

In DialogForm, open up a flow you want to edit.

In the prompts panel, click on the three horizontal dots next to the "+ Add prompt" button. This will open a popup menu with the option to "Select a template...".

Click on this option to open up the template selector. You'll find some templates here that make use of the quick responses feature to set up interesting use cases. The ones highlighted in red below are three such templates.

Select the template you want to explore. You'll see a preview of it on the right hand side, where you can try it out to see what it does. Once you've identified which template you want to use, click on the "Use" button to insert it into your flow. You can then modify it to suit your needs.

A prompt template is nothing but a pre-built prompt, so once you insert it into your flow, you can change anything and everything about it if you wish. It is just a regular prompt.

Deep Dive

If you want to manually build a prompt that uses quick responses (instead of using a pre-built one as above), then watch the following two steps of our tutorial:

These also delve a little into scoring strategies and how you can use them with quick responses, for added oomph.
