info

If the ContinueOnError property is true, no error is caught when the project is executed, even if a Catch node is used.

Output​

  • Payload - The response object containing the user's input or response to the prompt.

How It Works​

The Prompt node creates an interactive prompt in chat interfaces to collect user input. When executed, the node:

  1. Sends a prompt request to the Assistant
  2. Displays a prompt interface in the chat for user input
  3. Waits for the user to provide input or respond
  4. Returns a payload with the user's response

Requirements​

  • A valid chat interface or messaging platform
  • An active conversation with a user

Error Handling​

The node will return specific errors in the following cases:

  • No active conversation to prompt
  • Communication errors with the messaging platform
  • User does not provide input within expected timeframe

Usage Notes​

  • The prompt node is used to collect user input during conversations
  • The payload output contains the user's response to the prompt
  • Prompts are useful for gathering information or making decisions in workflows
  • The node waits for user input before proceeding to the next step
  • Multiple prompt nodes can be used in sequence to collect multiple pieces of information
  • The prompt interface may vary depending on the messaging platform being used
