Human Handoff Node

The Human Handoff Node allows you to transfer conversations from the chatbot to a human agent. When this node is triggered, the user will receive a message you've written using the rich text editor, and you'll be notified in your Telegram app through a dedicated bot channel. This node is typically used as the final node in a flow when human intervention is needed.

Features

  • Rich text editor for handoff message
  • Secure Telegram authentication for notifications
  • Dedicated bot channel for agent notifications
  • Variable mentions in messages using "@"
  • Automatic notification to human agents
